Summary

Supplemental Compensation Plan Act of 1992 - Amends the Federal Aviation Act of 1958 to establish a U.S. Supplemental Compensation Plan to supplement the compensation payable to claimants under the Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage by Air (Warsaw Convention) with respect to death, or personal injury, of airline passengers. Prohibits air carriers required to participate in the Plan from engaging in any air transportation unless they comply with specified requirements. Requires each air carrier to submit to the Secretary of Transportation for approval an agreement to designate an agent as its attorney in fact in order to: (1) negotiate the Compensation Plan Contribution; (2) select and negotiate with the Plan Administrator; and (3) monitor the Plan Administrator's performance. Provides for: (1) liability of the Plan Administrator for covered damages to claimants; (2) collection and payment of the Compensation Plan Contribution; (3) notice to claimants and evaluation of their claims; (4) claimants' proof of claim for offer of settlement; and (5) negotiation with and selection of the Plan Administrator.
