The primary focus of this document is on long-term development. However, it also points out some of the short- and mid-term enhancements that are necessary as foundations for such long-term improvements. The goals of this Subcommittee have been to: (1) identify guiding principles that should be considered in designing the evolution of the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) from the perspectives of Airline Operations Centers (AOCs) and Flight Operation Centers (FOCs) and (2) outline key areas for future research and concept exploration that build upon these guiding principles in order to define and implement an effective longterm operational concept. It should be noted that this paper has not focused on the research, and that concept explorations need to better support single piloted aircraft that may not be supported by an AOC/FOC (GA and military). However, in general, an effort has been madeto recommend the exploration of future system designs that are compatible with the needs of such aircraft. |
