This book was released on 2017-08-05 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Airspace System (NAS) requires a high degree of reliability, availability, and resiliency to ensure uninterrupted delivery of aviation services while providing the highest level of safety in the world. Our highly trained, certified professional air traffic controllers require state-of-the-art equipment and dependable communication, navigation, and surveillance systems to deliver world-class service to all NAS users. Significant safeguards and redundancies are in place to ensure that NAS infrastructure and systems meet stringent reliability, availability, and safety standards to prevent service disruptions, and to minimize system impact should one occur. The programs included in the Capital Investment Plan (CIP) are critical to FAA's continued success in achieving and maintaining this high level of safety and service to the public and support the development and implementation of the ongoing transition to the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen). CIP programs also support continued FAA leadership in global aviation and the development of future applications for new technologies such as Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast (ADS-B). The CIP provides the agency's latest five-year plan for the F&E programs supporting the development, acquisition, implementation, and sustainment of the systems that provide the infrastructure, the technology, and the capabilities of the NAS.

Book excerpt: This is the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) first annual Aviation System Capital Investment Plan (CIP). The CIP describes the policies and strategies that the FAA will pursue in addressing key concerns of the National Airspace System (NAS). The Plan addresses safety, efficiency, traffic demands, aging equipment and facilities, and airspace use. It creates a foundation for evolution of the existing NAS through use of new technologies and development of new products obtained from continuing research. Long range advances in automation, communication, and satellite services that are being researched and developed will facilitate more automated control concepts, remove fixed-routing constraints, provide high levels of civil aviation system safety, and facilitate operations of future generations of aircraft. A sound planning process will provide the flexibility to capture the opportunities that new technologies provide and use these new technologies to achieve the FAA's mission.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) third Aviation System Capital Investment Plan (CIP). It describes the Facilities and Equipment (F and E) programs that the FAA will pursue in addressing key concerns of the national airspace system (NAS), such as safety, efficiency, traffic demands, equipment and facilities, and airspace use. The CIP creates a plan for evolution of the existing NAS through use of these technologies and development of new products obtained from continuing research. The CIP is organized into six chapters. The Introduction provides an overview of the Plan, NAS goals and national priorities, the national air transportation system, a crosswalk to other plans, return on investment, recent changes, and document organization. A key goal of the Secretary of Transportation's National Transportation Policy is the completion of the NAS Plan. To meet and document this goal, the Original NAS Plan chapter presents all remaining original projects. The Growth chapter describes those requirements that expand, relocate, or consolidate existing facilities/equipment. The Infrastructure Replenishment chapter covers additional items identified since development of the original NAS Plan. This chapter presents projects that refurbish structures, replace obsolete equipment, or relocate facilities to maintain service, improve effectiveness, or reduce cost. The Supportability chapter describes projects that support logistics, provide for personnel training and manage the information and human resource aspects of NAS modernization. The last chapter, New Capabilities, addresses projects which, if implemented, are expected to add significant new capabilities to the NAS.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information on the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) National Airspace System Plan (NAS), now known as the Aviation System Capital Investment Plan (CIP). GAO found that: (1) as of October 1991, FAA estimated that 1991 CIP projects would require $31.9 billion through 2000, which is more than one-half billion dollars over its 1990 estimate; (2) the cost increase is primarily attributable to cost changes in original NAS projects that are included in CIP; (3) for fiscal year 1982 through 1992, Congress has appropriated about $13.4 billion of the $31.9 billion that FAA estimates is needed for CIP; (4) the 36 projects FAA has completed comprises approximately 3 percent of the total estimated modernization costs through 2000; (5) the FAA $31.9 billion estimate may not have recognized all of the modernization funding needed, since FAA based the estimate on a constantly changing NAS consolidation plan; (6) although FAA based its current funding estimates on its original plan to consolidate over 200 facilities into 23 facilities, FAA is discussing a new plan that would require over 50 facilities; (7) of the 12 major projects reviewed, all of the projects had either experienced cost increases or schedule delays, and some had experienced both; and (8) the 12 projects reviewed incurred cost increases ranging from $13 million to $219.2 million due to spare part purchases, facility construction, system integration, and changing requirements.

Download or read book National Airspace System written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has established specific goals for modernization of the National Airspace System (NAS) over the next decade. These goals include the replacement and modernization of aging air traffic control and navigation equipment and the development of a more comprehensive and coordinated system design to reflect specific needs of the user and specialist communities, to enhance safety, to improve efficiency and capacity, and to reduce operating costs. The programs to achieve these objectives are documented in the Capital Investment Plan (CIP). In conjunction with the CIP, the FAA has prepared system engineering management documents to assist in the orderly development and integration of CIP programs. The NAS Systems Requirements Specification (NASSRS) is a compilation of requirements which describe the operational capabilities for the NAS as envisioned to exist by the year 2000. The organization of this NAS Operational Concept corresponds to the major paragraphs of the NASSRS and provides an in-depth discussion of the higher level descriptions found in the NASSRS. This operational concept provides an overview of the NAS along with operational sequence diagrams and operational scenario diagrams to amplify the eight major sections of the NASSRS ... Flight Planning, Air Traffic Control & Airspace Management, Monitoring, Navigation, Air Defense, Maintenance, System Effectiveness, Communications.
