The bill introduced on March 17, 2025, aims to amend the Code of West Virginia by adding a new section, 5A-3-52a, which establishes reporting requirements for the use of state-owned aircraft by state agencies, excluding the West Virginia State Police. Under this new provision, all state agencies must submit a Flight Request Form to the Aviation Division prior to utilizing state-owned aircraft, and the purpose of each flight must be certified before approval.

Additionally, the bill mandates that the Aviation Division publish a log of all flights on its website, which will include relevant details such as the purpose of each flight. This log is required to be updated at least every four weeks, ensuring transparency and accountability in the use of state-owned aircraft.
