In 1997, the National Civil Aviation Review Commission (NCARC) report, A Consensus for Change, stated that the current course of the air transportation system would impair our domestic economy, reduce our standing in the global marketplace, and result in a long-term deterioration of aviation safety. One major recommendation of the Commission was that the FAA and the aviation industry develop a strategic plan to improve safety, with specific priorities based on objective, quantitative analysis of safety information and data.
In 2003, President George W. Bush and Congress took a significant step toward transforming the air transportation system with the enactment of the Vision 100 Â Century of Aviation Reauthorization Act. The Vision 100 Act established a mandate for the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) initiative to achieve the goals of accommodating a significant increase in demand for air transportation, accommodate all users, and improve aviation safety. To manage these efforts, Congress created the Joint Planning and Development Office (JPDO) Â a unique, cooperative partnership between public and private stakeholders. As part of the JPDO and in response to the NCARC recommendation, the Aviation Safety Working Group was charged with the development of a national strategic plan for aviation safety. To develop the strategic plan, the JPDO Aviation Safety Working Group chartered a Strategic Planning Standing Committee, comprised of public and private aviation stakeholders. The Standing Committee was charged with developing the National Aviation Safety Strategic Plan (NASSP) with strategies aligned with current and projected aviation safety issues. A major step in the development of the NASSP is the collection and analysis of worldwide safety issues.
As a member of the Joint Planning and Development Office (JPDO), NASA supports planning for the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) through the Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate. NASA made significant contributions to safety planning for NextGen and led the development of the National Aviation Safety Strategic Plan. As part of its support for maintaining the Plan, NASA is engaged in evaluating its efficacy. This will be accomplished through collection of safety concerns associated with the current and NextGen air transportation system.
