Undoing National Lead Emissions through Authorizing Directed Education from DOT Act or the UNLEADED Act This bill directs the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to establish and disseminate an education program to provide information about new unleaded aviation gasoline authorized for use in aircraft and aircraft engines by the FAA. Specifically, the FAA must publish the information on an FAA website or a public website for general aviation pilots, flight schools, airport managers and operators, aircraft maintenance technicians, fixed-base operators, and other members of the general aviation community. The FAA must also facilitate annual education and training for leadership and staff of fixed-base operators (in coordination with the general aviation industry, fuel providers, and fixed-base operators) to ensure that individuals assisting with transporting and handling unleaded aviation gasoline are informed of fuel type differences and the impacts such fuels have on airplanes. The FAA must periodically brief Congress on the status of, and any findings with respect to, the education program.

Amend Section 76 of the Civil Aviation Act 1982 to remove the immunity of airports from nuisance/trespass claims where Satellite/PBN navigation is used. We also want a new statutory process allowing citizens to trigger flight path reviews via GP-certified medical evidence of noise suffering.
Current law assumes distributed noise. Modern Satellite (PBN) navigation concentrates noise onto a single "rail," which can inadvertently lead to ‘precision-targeting’ specific homes with 100% accuracy. This creates the equivalent to a clinical "Course of Conduct" that can aggravates severe health issues like Tinnitus & Anxiety. Because airports are immune from civil suits, residents have no legal redress for this. We believe the Government Parliament must restore the right to sue for nuisance and mandate path changes where medical harm is proven by a GP.

M. Lionel Tivoli interroge M. le ministre des transports sur les conditions de traitement des bagages cabine transférés en soute à la porte d'embarquement, notamment en cas de saturation des compartiments cabine. Dans de nombreuses situations, notamment sur des vols opérés par des compagnies telles que Air France, il est proposé aux passagers, au moment de l'embarquement, de placer en soute leurs bagages initialement destinés à la cabine. Or les bagages cabine peuvent contenir des objets strictement interdits en soute, au premier rang desquels figurent les batteries lithium non installées, dont les risques d'échauffement ou d'incendie sont documentés. Ces objets sont autorisés en cabine précisément en raison de la possibilité d'intervention rapide en cas d'incident. Dans ce contexte, il apparaît que les bagages transférés en soute à la porte d'embarquement ne font pas systématiquement l'objet de vérifications spécifiques quant à leur conformité aux règles applicables aux bagages enregistrés, lesquelles relèvent notamment des standards définis par l'Organisation de l'aviation civile internationale et mises en œuvre au niveau européen par l'Agence de l'Union européenne pour la sécurité aérienne. Cette situation soulève des interrogations quant à la robustesse des procédures en vigueur et à l'éventuelle existence d'un angle mort opérationnel en matière de sécurité aérienne. Aussi, il lui demande si des protocoles précis et obligatoires encadrent, en France, le transfert de bagages cabine vers la soute à la porte d'embarquement ; si une vérification systématique de la présence d'objets interdits en soute, notamment de batteries lithium, est prévue dans ces situations ; si des contrôles sont effectués par la direction générale de l'aviation civile afin de s'assurer du respect de ces procédures par les compagnies aériennes et, le cas échéant, quelles évolutions réglementaires ou opérationnelles le Gouvernement entend promouvoir afin de garantir un niveau optimal de sécurité.

M. Aurélien Dutremble appelle l'attention de M. le ministre de l'économie, des finances et de la souveraineté industrielle, énergétique et numérique sur l'acharnement fiscal dont sont aujourd'hui victimes les exploitants de montgolfières, à la suite d'une requalification brutale du régime de TVA applicable à leur activité. Par une réponse ministérielle du 5 février 2026, l'administration fiscale considère désormais que les vols en montgolfière relèvent non plus du transport de passagers, mais d'une simple prestation de loisir. Cette interprétation conduit à appliquer le taux normal de TVA de 20 %, en lieu et place du taux réduit de 10 % précédemment en vigueur. Cette décision technocratique, déconnectée des réalités du terrain, frappe de plein fouet des entreprises artisanales et touristiques déjà fragilisées. En Saône-et-Loire, territoire rural et touristique, plusieurs exploitants participent activement à l'attractivité du département, à la valorisation de ses paysages et au dynamisme économique local. Leur activité, loin d'être un simple divertissement, constitue une véritable offre de transport aérien touristique, encadrée et réglementée. Plus grave encore, cette requalification donne lieu à des redressements fiscaux rétroactifs particulièrement lourds, mettant en péril la survie même de certaines entreprises. Cette insécurité juridique est d'autant plus incompréhensible que d'autres activités comparables continuent de bénéficier d'un taux réduit de TVA, révélant une rupture manifeste d'égalité devant l'impôt. Cette situation porte directement atteinte au principe de sécurité juridique et au principe de confiance légitime des entreprises, qui ont appliqué de bonne foi un régime fiscal admis de longue date par l'administration elle-même. Elle pose plus largement une question politique majeure : celle de la stabilité des règles fiscales applicables aux entreprises et de la responsabilité de l'État lorsqu'un changement de doctrine administrative conduit à réclamer rétroactivement des montants susceptibles d'absorber une part substantielle de leur chiffre d'affaires. Dans un contexte où les pouvoirs publics affirment vouloir soutenir les territoires ruraux et le tourisme local, cette décision apparaît en totale contradiction avec les objectifs affichés. Face à cette situation inacceptable, il lui demande : s'il entend mettre un terme immédiat aux redressements fiscaux engagés contre les exploitants de montgolfières ; s'il compte revenir sur cette interprétation abusive en rétablissant l'application du taux réduit de TVA ; si le Gouvernement entend sécuriser de manière explicite et opposable le régime de TVA applicable aux vols commerciaux en montgolfière ; si des instructions claires seront adressées aux services fiscaux afin de mettre un terme aux redressements rétroactifs fondés sur un changement d'interprétation ; et quelles garanties concrètes il entend apporter pour protéger la pérennité économique de ces entreprises et l'emploi local dans les territoires ruraux, notamment en Saône-et-Loire.

Mme Béatrice Bellay attire l'attention de Mme la ministre des outre-mer sur les inégalités persistantes en matière de continuité territoriale entre la Corse et les Pays des Océans dits territoires d'outre-mer. Alors que les collectivités des Pays des Océans et leurs représentants alertent de manière constante sur l'insuffisance chronique des moyens consacrés à la continuité territoriale, les arbitrages budgétaires pour l'année 2026 consacrent une disparité particulièrement marquée entre les territoires de la République. En effet, les crédits alloués aux outre-mer s'élèvent à 76,9 millions d'euros, soit une augmentation limitée de 2,6 %, très insuffisante pour répondre aux contraintes structurelles liées à l'éloignement, à l'insularité et à la dépendance quasi exclusive au transport aérien. Dans le même temps, la Corse bénéficie d'un effort public sans commune mesure. La dotation de continuité territoriale, historiquement fixée à 187 millions d'euros, a fait l'objet de revalorisations successives pour atteindre 237 millions d'euros en 2026. Rapportée à la population, cette différence est particulièrement significative : environ 677 euros par habitant en Corse, contre seulement 27 euros par habitant dans les outre-mer, dispositifs de surcroît soumis à des conditions de ressources strictes et à des motifs limitatifs de déplacement. Ainsi, l'effort de solidarité nationale apparaît près de trente fois supérieur pour la Corse que pour les Pays des Océans, alors même que ces derniers font face à des contraintes géographiques bien plus fortes, notamment du fait des distances intercontinentales et de l'absence d'alternatives de transport. Cette situation traduit une rupture manifeste du principe d'égalité entre les citoyens de la République et interroge la cohérence de la politique nationale en matière de continuité territoriale. En conséquence, elle lui demande : quelles sont les justifications de cette disparité de traitement entre la Corse et les outre-mer ; quelles mesures le Gouvernement entend prendre afin d'engager un rattrapage significatif des crédits en faveur des territoires ultramarins ; s'il envisage un alignement progressif des montants par habitant afin de garantir une véritable égalité d'accès à la mobilité ; et enfin, quelles initiatives seront portées au niveau européen pour adapter les dispositifs existants, notamment en matière de fiscalité environnementale, aux réalités spécifiques des Pays des Océans dits territoires ultramarins.
