Download or read book Federal Aviation Administration Efforts to Hire Staff and Train Air Traffic Controllers are Generally on Track But Challenges Remain written by Gerald L. Dillingham and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2008-11-01 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each day, the FAA controls the take-offs, landings, and flights of over 50,000 aircraft. To accomplish this mission safely and efficiently, FAA must have a sufficient number of adequately trained air traffic controllers working at its air traffic control facilities. Over the next decade, FAA will need to hire and train nearly 17,000 controllers to replace over 15,000 current controllers, most of whom will be retiring. This massive hiring effort will occur as FAA begins to implement the next generation air transportation system, which will integrate new technologies and procedures into air traffic operations. Illustrations.
Download or read book Air Traffic Control written by Gerald L. Dillingham and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2002-10 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report identifies potential scenarios for future air traffic controller attrition and the Federal Aviation Agency's (FAA) plans for dealing with such attrition. Because of the significant hiring in the early 1980s to replace strikers who had been fired, many thousands of FAA's controllers will soon become eligible to retire, potentially leaving FAA with too few fully trained controllers. This report: (1) identifies likely future attrition scenarios for FAA's controller workforce, and (2) examines FAA's strategy for responding to its short- and long-term staffing needs, including how it plans to address the challenges it may face.

This book was released on 2014-09-15 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB has released the final version of Special Report 314: The Federal Aviation Administration’s Approach for Determining Future Air Traffic Controller Staffing Needs that examines the methods used by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to estimate how many controllers are needed to staff its air traffic control facilities and its processes for using these estimates to properly distribute controllers across facilities. According to the report, the FAA’s models for determining air traffic controller staffing needs are suitable for developing initial estimates of the number of controllers required at terminal areas and airport towers, but the models used for the centers controlling aircraft en route between airports can be improved. In addition, as a matter of priority, the FAA should collaborate with the National Air Traffic Controllers Association to develop and implement an enhanced tool for all facilities that is capable of creating efficient controller work schedules that incorporate fatigue mitigation strategies. The report recommends that the FAA analyze a wide range of data, such as accident and incident reports and voluntary reports by controllers, to identify relationships between staffing and safety. In addition, the controller workforce should be involved in staffing decisions, particularly as knowledge emerges about relevant safety issues. The FAA also should ensure that staffing continues to be appropriate as it implements the new air traffic operations environment associated with the Next Generation Transportation System, a modernization initiative to shift air traffic management from ground-based radar to a satellite system, the report says. A press release on the report is available for download. A report summary has been published in TR News 297.

Committee for a Review of the En Route Air Traffic Control Complexity and Workload Model and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2010 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB Special Report 301: Air Traffic Controller Staffing in the En Route Domain: A Review of the Federal Aviation Administration's Task Load Model examines the structure, empirical basis, and validation methods of a Federal Aviation Administration model that estimates the time controllers spend performing tasks when handling en route traffic. The model's task load output is being used to inform workforce planning. The committee that developed the report concluded that the model is superior to past models because it takes into account traffic complexity when estimating task load. However, the report recommends that more operational and experimental data on task performance be obtained to establish and validate many key model assumptions, relationships, and parameters.

This book was released on 2009-12 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides the results of the Dept. of Transportation¿s Office of Inspector Gen¿s. review of controller staffing at 3 FAA facilities in Calif.: the L.A. International Airport Traffic Control Tower , the S. Calif. Terminal Radar Approach Control, and the N. Calif. TRACON. This review was conducted at the request of Sen. Dianne Feinstein of Calif., who expressed concerns about potential shortages of trained and experienced controllers at these locations, which are some of the Nation¿s busiest facilities. Ensuring these air traffic control facilities remain adequately staffed with qualified air traffic controllers is critical to the safety and efficiency of the entire National Airspace System. This review was conducted between June 2008 and Jan. 2009.
