MY SUSPICIONS:
A. Someone in the FAA is buddies with a loser airline (Northwest, Delta, Continental,US Air, and wants to use the FAA to “level the playing field”.

B. Some bureaucrat got caught doing something an opponent did not like. This isd used as a tool against that bureaucrat.

I think your suspicions are WELL founded!

Especially #1.
