Abstract:

This Special Meeting brought together many outstanding minds in contemporary aviation representing the public and private sectors for the purpose of reviewing the outlook for airport and airspace capacity and to discuss current programs and policy that address the gap between future needs and the forecast capability. The participants were organized into working groups to discuss issues and exchange viewpoints. The meeting concluded by assembling the total attendance for expression of consensus and ideas. In summary, it was the sense of the meeting that the current national program has serious limitations in dealing with problems of future system capacity. Furthermore, the nature of the limitations require high-level policy attention, since they are not simply solvable through minor reorientation of present programs.
