1Opinion of the Court
Opinion for the Court filed by Circuit Judge BROWN.
BROWN, Circuit Judge:
Petitioner Jack Rondal Dillmon accuses the National Transportation Safety Board (Board) of hypocrisy — saying one thing while doing another. Dillmon argues the Board departed from its prior decisions without adequate explanation when it affirmed the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA’s) emergency revocation of his airman and medical certificates. We agree with Dillmon: the Board has failed to exhibit the reasoned decision making we require of agencies. We therefore grant his petition for review.
