  1. Benefits of NASA’s Small Aircraft Transportation System Technologies. Ohio NASA Glenn Research Center, Cleveland Ohio

  2. Cleveland Hopkins, a Continental Airlines Hub World’s busiest air traffic control center: Chicago-NY corridor, ….en route commercial air traffic will increase 30% by 2010 FAA radar data showed Ohio’s two large hubs carried 248 general aviation IFR operations per day (mostly small planes). As the hubs get more congested, GA spill-over to urban relievers may further spill over to Ohio’s smaller airports. Cincinnati-N. Kentucky Airport $3.9 B Delta and Comair hub with 40% projected growth by 2015 SATS automated flight path management makes small aircraft easily integrated with the commercial fleet en route and at large terminals.

  3. James Cox Dayton: Top 10 cargo airport, Emery Worldwide’s N. American sort hub with USPS Priority & Express Mail contract Also FedEx hub Cleveland Hopkins # 7 Foreign Trade Gateway by Air, $17 B shipments 1999 Rickenbacher Intl AP: World’s largest public cargo airport, 12000 ft runways land 747s from Alaska. Foreign trade zone. Wilmington Airborne Airpark: Main sort hub for Airborne Express Cincinnati-N.Kentucky: 11 cargo airlines, DHL cargo sort hub Center of the Country Transport Hub Fly in, overnight sort, fly or truck out on I-70, I-80, I-90, I-71, I-75, I-77

  4. Sixteen towered airports serve the major cities and 59 Fortune 1000 firms. Toledo: HCR Manor Care, Dana Owens Corning, Owens-Illinois Cleveland: American Greetings, Sherwin Williams, Parker Hannifin, Keycorp, TRW, Eaton, Nacco, Applied Industrial Tech., Ferro Pioneer-Standard, LTV, National City Corp, Charter One Financial, Polyone, Lubrizol, Progressive, OfficeMax Findlay: Cooper Tire & Rubber Columbus: Wendy’s, Abercorombie & Fitch, Limited, Cardinal Health, Nationwide Insurance, American Electric Power, Huntington Banc, Value City, Worthington, Consolidated Stores, Borden Youngstown: Phar-Mor Dayton: NCR, DPL, Mead Standard Register, Reynolds & Reynolds Akron-Canton: RPM, JoAnn Stores, First Energy, Roadway Express, Goodyear Tire, Diebold, Timken Hamilton: AK Steel, Ohio Casualty, Cincinnati Financial Cincinnati: Fifth Third Bank, Proctor & Gamble, Milacron, EW Scripps, Cinergy, Kroger Chiquita Brands, Convergys, Federated Departmnt Stores American Financial Group Industry is expanding ….

  5. New or expanded facilities in 2002: manufacturing non-manufacturing From Ohio Dept. of Development Ohio has a diffuse network of motor vehicle manufacturing, rubber and plastics, and power generation industries, plus financial and consumer products firms expanding facilities and employment with $ 50M - $10B investments. These firms travel between plants and suppliers. FAA radar data shows corporate King Air flights from 50 different airports in a typical five-day window, 103 operations/day, 55% under 250 miles (49% within Ohio).

  6. Towered Airports Non-towered SATS eligible airports with 5000 ft runways Ohio has 179 airports: 23 non-towered SATS- eligible airports have runways over 5000 ft to land small jets, 59 SATS-eligible airports have good paved runways 3000 to 5000 ft. Ohio general aviation IFR operations/day: 618 42% piston-engined AC 19% turboprops and 39% jets (79% small jets under 30,000 lbs MTOW) SATS-eligible airports average less than one IFR operation per day. But almost all of the IFR traffic (including general aviation IFR) flows through the towered airports.

  7. We think that lack of all-weather service discourages IFR traffic from using the non-towered SATS-eligible airports, especially with Great Lakes weather. OHIO By 2015, National Airspace Modernization will bring all-weather precision approach and landing to the smaller public airports. SATS technology increases the operational efficiency of small airports in adverse weather, which is important to time sensitive traffic.

  8. Towered airport Non-towered SATS eligible airport with 5000 ft runway. SATS technology will allow non-towered airports in non-radar terminal airspace maintain high volume operations in nearly all weather. It will also enable access to airports which are not equipped for IFR take-offs and landings under conditions with lower ceiling and visibility. SATS technologies: Automated flight path management for precision approach and landing. Collaborative autonomous sequencing. Graphical intuitive flight path guidance. Synthetic vision. On board flight planning and management. Software enabled controls (simplified flight controls and autopilot integrated into graphical display). And the SATS program aims to provide greater safety for the single pilot due to greater flight path accuracy and precision approach and landing even in abnormal conditions.

  9. 2 1 1 2 3 3 3 We are exploring the business case for commercial services using small SATS-equipped jets, within the competitive Ohio pricing structure for air transport services. Ohio fractional ownership: NetJets Operations Center (Columbus) FlightOptions (Cleveland) with Raytheon (Cincinnati) Several in Cincinnati Each dot equals 750 people. From Ohio Dept. of Development This addresses NASA’s goal of increasing personal mobility.
