The US government tossed a roadblock in the path of start-up airline Virgin America, ruling that the company must change its ownership and corporate structure before it can receive an operating certificate.

Under the law, a US airline must be 75 per cent owned and controlled by Americans and the Department of Transportation said Virgin America does not currently meet that requirement.
