  1. Turbulence Avoidance What now?

  2. Turbulence Basics • Drivers – Safety, Efficiency/Emissions, Capacity, & Customer Experience • Primary users- Meteorologists, Dispatchers, Crews, & Controllers • How does it work today? • Solution Components • Forecast • Tactical/Now cast • Reporting

  3. History • 1991 - NCAR began development of EDR • 1999 - UAL installed EDR with major airlines to follow • 2005 - NASA rms-g algorithm tested on 80 DAL B737 • 2007 – Delta installs EDR on B737 • 2008 – Delta – Ops Control feasibility test of EDR • Information well received by dispatchers • Limitations – Hard to provide tactical info to 15-20 flights • 2013 – Delta - GTG/EDR in the cockpit using WIFI • Very positive results • Now what

  4. Next Steps • How to correlate different reporting metrics? • How to increase the report pool? • Who hosts the turbulence reports data? • Who has access to the data? • How to harmonize international community? • How to move forward with different viewers? • How to maintain the system as SA tool?

  5. Positive Outcomes • FAA solution for EDR standards • FAA solution for standardized installation • A4A solution for data • Government • Commercial • FAA international work & airline partnering • New tools compared to PIREPS
