Before: HENDERSON, RANDOLPH and TATEL, Circuit Judges.

JUDGMENT

PER CURIAM.

1

This case was heard on the record of the National Transportation Safety Board (Board) and on the briefs and arguments by counsel. The court has determined that the issues presented occasion no need for a published opinion. See D.C.Cir.Rule 36(b). It is therefore

2

3

The clerk is directed to withhold issuance of the mandate herein until seven days after disposition of any timely petition for rehearing. See D.C.Cir.Rule 41(a)(1).
