• Replacement parts for older PBB’s are difficult to find as they are becoming obsolete.
• New PBBs will be safer than old PBBs for ground handlers, operators and passengers.
• Maintenance costs both in dollars and staff time will be less with new PBB’s.Operations costs will be slightly lower with more efficient PBB components, excluding the 400hz aircraft power requirements.
• PFC level: $3.00
• Total estimated PFC revenue to be collected: $29,082,892.
• PFC application effective date: January 1, 2024.
