Availability: N/AFind a library where document is available Abstract: This workshop, the most recent in a biennial series that was initiated in 1979, sought to provide input to public- and private-sector managers and decision makers on forecasting long-term trends and developments in commercial, business, and personal air transport. Focus was on the post-September 11 environment. Topics discussed include the domestic and international macroeconomic outlook; the structure and operating patterns of major and regional American air carriers; expected developments in international aviation, air cargo issues, aircraft, and engine manufacture; trends in business aviation, including fractional ownership; civil helicopter transport services; and the improving future for personally owned and operated light aircraft. Nearly 150 participants, drawn from government, industry, academic institutions, and private consulting firms both here and abroad, took part in this 3-day meeting. Many came from the United States, in addition to substantial representation from Europe, Asia, Latin America, and foreign firms with offices in the United States. The program consisted of three major segments: an opening plenary session with presentations on the broad outlook and strategic issues; nine concurrent discussion panels on sectoral trends and problems; and a concluding plenary session in which panel discussions were summarized.
