The workshop session opened with a general discussion that identified the major areas of system needs. These major areas are: (1) better data; (2) flow control and metering; (3) wake turbulence separations; and (4) difficulties in implementation. The discussion then turned to means by which these needs could be addressed. The following ideas were proposed: (1) better publication of research; (2) overcome the implementation problems; (3) solve the man-machine problem; and (4) obtain continuing support for programs. Finally, the group identified program areas in which research is needed. These include: wake vortex; separation standard reductions, including those that could result from aircraft avionics/electronic capabilities; reduction in system variabilities (e.g., computer-aided final approach spacing); segregation of aircraft by performance capabilities (e.g., helicopters/fixed wing, VTOL/STOL/CTOL); reduction in runway occupancy time; safety programs (such as TCAS and doppler weather radar); flow control; closing the IFR/VFR gap (e.g., "electronic VFR"); delay accounting system; review of programs vs. priorities (based on system-wide benefits) to redirect research from site-specific to more general programs; and new facilities (runways).
