Abstract:

The report summarizes the progress on the Air Traffic Control tasks. The principal effort was directed toward reaching a status which will permit the presentation of tentative conclusions and reports because several of the tasks must be terminated in FY 72. The radar MTI study effort will continue under FAA sponsorship, and the analysis of microwave landing guidance systems will be maintained for the Air Force. Discussions are under way concerning the scope and level of future Air Force-supported effort on airborne graphical displays and CNI system performance analysis.
