Abstract
Multi-Regional Trajectory Based Operations (MR TBO) was developed by Florida NextGen Test Bed (FTB) along with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as a method for enhancing air traffic management (ATM), both domestically and internationally. TBO offers a shift from voice-based exchanges between Air Traffic Controllers and pilots to highly automated, digital communication exchanges. The purpose of this poster is twofold. First, it explains how TBO can help improve route amendments, speed change, strategic handling of ground events, and sharing and managing multiple aircraft. Second, the poster proposes the integration of MR TBO into the National Airspace System (NAS) to decrease the number of incidents caused by high workloads of ATM. Results of this poster suggest that the operational value of adopting MR TBO extends towards the airlines, pilots, and air traffic controllers. A resulting increase of efficiency and safety will revolutionize the NAS for future generations of the aviation industry.
