Ford Motor Co., cutting jobs to stem losses, said Americas chief Mark Fields would no longer use a company plane to commute to Michigan from his home in Florida, two weeks after the carmaker defended the practice.

Fields “doesn’t want to distract the team” trying to revive North American auto operations, spokesman Tom Hoyt said.

Fields got permission to use Dearborn, Mich.-based Ford’s aircraft on a weekly basis when he took his post in October 2005.
