J. Todd Inman, one of the five members of the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board, has left the investigative body, according to multiple people familiar with the situation.

The sudden development comes just days after the Senate confirmed John Deleeuw, formerly American Airlines’ safety chief, as its fifth member on Feb. 25, restoring the board to a full five-member panel. The reason for Inman’s departure was not clear at the time of publication.
