Describe the Impact of the FAA's National Airspace System Plan (NASP)
The impact of the FAA's National Airspace System Plan is that it is creating a standard procedure that can be used to: provide guidance and support for the air traffic control system in a specific region. This is important, because this plan serves as the basic foundation for: establishing the proper operating procedures and how to adjust to changes that are taking place in the industry (such as how to implement new technology / regulations in the plan). Where, the strategy will identify specific areas that need to be addressed (at a host of different airports around the country) including: systems planning, trends, the different problems facing capacity / delays, the effective use of technology, funding, forecasting / trends and policy considerations. These different elements are important, because they are establishing a strategy that can be used by airports around the world, to address the underlying challenges that they are dealing with. At the same time, the strategy is working to provide standard operating procedures that should be embraced by the different facilities throughout the United States. This is significant, because once this has occurred over a certain period of time; it will help to improve the efficiency of: the air traffic control system and the safety at the airport. At which point, the nation's air transportation system can run smoothly, at addressing the different transportation needs of: air travelers and other organizations. ("Airport System Development," 1984)
As a result, one could easily...
This will have a positive impact on the facility by: making sure that it is safe, they are using the different technology effectively, ensuring that the staff is properly trained / positioned and they understand how to implement various regulations. When you put these different elements, together this will mean that the air traffic control system around the country will follow: the same standards and procedures. At which point, the ability to meet the demands of passengers and other organization improves, by identifying how to safely achieve these objectives. ("Airport System Development," 1984)
In many ways, one could claim that this is point of the NASP as it is: creating universal standards and procedures for all facilities. Once this occurs, it means that: safety will increase and the overall costs to transport people / merchandise will decrease dramatically. This is because the universal standards are allowing all of the different facilities to work together. At which point, the nation is able to have an air transportation system that is following the same basic procedures, which is helping to: improve safety and the number of flights going into a particular airport.

Risk of Drones encounters with manned aircraft in the National Airspace System Abstract The research problem identified is analyzing the risk factors of incorporating unmanned piloted aircraft into the National Airspace to the United States and the manned aircraft, which operates in the National Airspace. The methodology employed was quantitative statistical analysis using hypothesis testing for concluding whether there is a risk factor associated with unmanned aircraft or not. The sample is
Air Traffic Control Free Flight System Free flight represents a positive change in airline traffic management system. It promises efficiency and profitability to the industry, which is going through a rough period. The 1978 deregulation of airlines was perceived as a revolutionary change in the airline industry. Similarly, in the field of air traffic control, the 'free flight' system promises to be the most important change ever since the introduction of radars
privatization of Air Traffic Control in the U.S. Non-profit privatization of ATC Industry experts position on privatizing the U.S. ATC Improvement in safety and regulation New Public Management Orientation in the U.S. Air Traffic Control Technology up gradation and budgetary constraints State-owned enterprises (SOEs) are organizations owned and operated by governments. There is a growing consensus amongst economists and governments that governments should not operate commercial organizations as it hampers the efficiency and productivity of the
This category can further be divided into six subgroups namely; short-range, medium range, long-range, close range, endurance, Medium Altitude Long Endurance (MALE) Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The long-range UAVs are technologically more advanced as they use satellites in order to overcome the communication problem between the UAVs and the ground stations. This communication problem is generally caused by the curvature of the earth. The medium, short and close range
Global Position System (GPS) System Wide Information Management (SWIM) Advanced data Communication Next Network Enabled Weather The NAS Voice Switch Structural design of new aircrafts In this paper, we look into the new technological development in the air transport system such as GPS in air traffic management, airport infrastructure and proactive safety management. In details the paper discusses the user of specific situation awareness including a new broadband information network, weather observation, prediction and impacts; security,
(Dunn, 2009) Arumemi-Ikhide believes that Arik can succeed due to a combination of the opportunity -- helped by economic and air transport reforms in Nigeria -- and the capability to deliver a high quality product." (Dunn, 2009) Also stated by Arumemi-Ikhide is that this "will be a key in differentiating it in the international market and providing feeder traffic. That will be the lifeline for the international network. That's what
