Other Projects


-A selected group of members representing based tenants at several satellite airports within the Atlanta Class B Airspace have been involved with the Design & Implementation group working on the Optimization of Airspace and Procedures in the Atlanta Metroplex with Atlanta A-80.  As you may know, the OAPM initiative seeks to address traffic flow through PBN (Performance Based Navigation), procedures and route optimization that will enable predictable, repeatable flight paths, improved situational awareness, reduce ATC task complexity and increase efficiency.  

The group followed the major topics outlined below:

 1.   Collaboratively identify and characterize existing issues for all users
 2.   Propose conceptual PBN procedures which increase efficiency and             address issues
 3.  Identification of considerations, risks and benefits associated with proposed changes
 4.  Quantify the potential annual benefits by comparing distance, flight time, fuel burn and emissions between current flow and proposed procedures.
