It enables aircraft to depart the gate later and then move directly from the tarmac to the runway for takeoff without long wait times, thereby saving fuel.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the system&#8217;s predictive abilities reduce system delays by allowing for more efficient absorption of departing flights into the overhead aircraft stream, explained Shawn Engelland, ATD project manager for NASA.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><em>From the archives: Global Beacon flight-tracking system goes live<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Though ATD-2 will be deployed by the FAA, it was developed by NASA initially to facilitate spacecraft launches.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The FAA plans to roll out the system gradually at 27 large U.S. airports over the next 10 years. Successful trials have already been undertaken at Charlotte, Dallas\/Fort Worth and Dallas Love Field airports. Next up will be Phoenix, with deployment in the early part of next year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This technology cuts delays by all kinds of hours and the aircraft engines run all kinds of fewer hours, NASA administrator Bill Nelson said during a teleconference on Sept. 28. &#8220;What does that mean? That means less maintenance and fewer engines. This is obviously good for the environment. It&#8217;s good for our economy. It&#8217;s good for customers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>During testing in Charlotte, a reduction in taxi times saved about 275,000 gallons of fuel per year, which is the equivalent of the fuel burn of 185 flights between New York and Chicago for a Boeing 737. The system also reduced delays by 916 hours per year, which the FAA compared to shaving 15 minutes of waiting on a taxiway for more than 3,600 departing flights.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Greenhouse gas emissions were reduced by eight tons daily.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>ATD-2 is part of the long-delayed NextGen air transportation system modernization that the FAA has been undertaking since 2007.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelweekly.com\/Travel-News\/Airline-News\/FAA-deploying-technology-reduce-airline-taxi-times\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The FAA is poised to begin the rollout of a software system that will be used to reduce airline taxi<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":82418,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
