  2. NASA & FAA Partnership • NASA FAA PARTNERSHIP - MOA, OCTOBER, 1998 • GOALS ARE TO PURSUE • SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS • AIRSPACE SYSTEM EFFICIENCY • AIRCRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS

  3. Support Environmental Compatibility • REDUCTION OF AVIATION ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS - NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL • ICAO Process • NASA Research • FAA RE&D • INCREASES IN NASA & FAA RE&D ENVIRONMENTAL BUDGETS • U.S. GOVERNMENT PROVIDING A SAFE ENVIRONMENT FOR ALL THE PEOPLE • Space vs Environment

  4. Long Term Commitments • STATEMENTS FROM 1995 NATIONAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY COUNCIL* • ENSURE LONG-TERM ENVIRONMENTAL COMPATIBILITY OF THE AVIATION SYSTEM • PAST RESEARCH INVESTMENT IN TECHNOLOGIES TO REDUCE ENGINE NOISE & EMISSIONS ARE PAYING DIVIDENDS TODAY • ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES ARE LIKELY TO IMPOSE FUNDAMENTAL LIMITATION ON THE AIR TRANSPORT GROWTH IN THE 21ST CENTURY • MUST REGAIN & MAINTAIN OUR GLOBAL LEADERSHIP ROLE • COMPETITIVE IN GLOBAL ECONOMY • E.U. Spends US? * From statement by FAA RE&D Subcommittee to Advisory Committee, 1999
