NextGen Implementation Plan 2009
The Federal Aviation Administration released an update to its NextGen Implementation Plan on January 30, 2009. With its internal NextGen planning well defined, the agency will now focus on developing parallel commitments with the aviation community, particularly on avionics equipage. To support this, the RTCA, an industry association that serves as a federal advisory committee, has launched a NextGen Implementation Task Force in partnership with the FAA. This RTCA-sponsored task force will offer recommendations on how to get the most benefits from the NextGen mid-term operational capabilities. The plan provides a common point of understanding for the task force's activities." More »
