NTSB board member Inman says he was fired by White House

WASHINGTON, March 8 (Reuters) - A Republican member of the National Transportation Safety Board said on Sunday he was fired on Friday by the White House without any explanation.

Todd Inman, a former chief of staff to Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao during President Donald Trump's first term, had served on the NTSB since April 2024. He was the on-scene board member at the American Airlines AAL.O collision with an Army helicopter in January 2025 near Reagan Washington National Airport that killed 67 people and the November crash of a UPS UPS.N cargo plane on takeoff from the Louisville, Kentucky, airport that killed 15 people.

The White House fired then-NTSB vice chair Alvin Brown in May. Brown, a Democrat who was the first-ever African American elected mayor of Jacksonville, Florida, has filed suit challenging his dismissal.
