This is an overview of actions required to implement safe and efficientrotorcraft operations as part of an intermodal transportation during the 1996 Centennial Olympics in Atlanta. This document is an early planning tool for the FAA managers to use in identifying issues and requirements. Accordingly, the report addresses 9 of the 13 mission areas in the charter of the FAA Southern Region's Quality Action Team (QUAT) for rotorcraft operations during the 1996 Olympic Games.
