RVSM |
Reduced Vertical Separation
Minimum
The goal of RVSM is to reduce the vertical
separation above flight level (FL) 290 from the
current 2000-ft minimum to 1000-ft minimum. This
will allow aircraft to safely fly more optimum
profiles, gain fuel savings and increase
airspace capacity.
The proposal to implement US
Domestic RVSM between FL 290 - 410 (inclusive)
January 20, 2005 is considered to be a feasible
option and the FAA is developing its plans
accordingly.

AVIATION
SAFETY
REPORTING SYSTEM |
The ASRS collects, analyzes, and
responds to voluntarily submitted
aviation safety incident reports in
order to lessen the likelihood of
aviation accidents. ASRS data are used
to:
- Identify deficiencies and
discrepancies in the National
Aviation System (NAS) so that
these can be remedied by
appropriate authorities.
- Support policy formulation and
planning for, and improvements to,
the NAS.
- Strengthen the foundation of
aviation human factors safety
research. This is particularly
important since it is generally
conceded that over two-thirds of
all aviation accidents and
incidents have their roots in
human performance errors.
