Description
"The FAA has initiated efforts to improve weather information, forecasting, and dissemination to enhance both safety and operational efficiency. The FAA has also adopted the System Airport Efficiency Rate (SAER) as a metric of facility operating efficiency that accounts for weather by using either actual demand or the facility-set arrival rate as the denominator, reflecting a reduction in the published ability to handle departures or arrivals due...

Description
"Two separate logistic regression analyses were conducted for low- and high-altitude sectors to determine whether a set of dynamic sector characteristics variables could reliably discriminate between operational error (OE) and routine operation (RO) traffic samples. OE data were derived from SATORI re-creations of OEs occurring at the Indianapolis Air Route Traffic Control Center between 9/17/2001 and 12/10/2003. RO data were extracted from System...

Description
The purpose of this study was to determine whether factors that predicted operational errors (OE) at the Atlanta Air Route Traffic Control Center (ZTL) in a study conducted by Rodgers et al. (1998) would also predict OE occurrence at other facilities. Failure to reduce en route operational errors (OEs) in recent years has resulted in FAA efforts to develop programs aimed at OE reduction. Several studies identified airspace complexity as a major contributor...
