SEA CHANGES

摘要

The FAA is providing greatly improved services to trans-oceanic flights as the agency works with airlines and international partners to exploit new policies, procedures and technologies. These major improvements employ NextGen concepts of operation and are enabling NextGen implementation at the FAAs three oceanic centres. Many of the advances in the past decade were in the planning stage before the inception of NextGen in 2005, but the capabilities exemplify where the FAA is headed with NextGen in the high altitude structure.
