Our national airspace system is one of the largest and safest in the world. Its also the busiest: in FY 2010, more than 700 million passengers flew on U.S. air carriers, and at any given moment there are about 5,000 planes in the air. With air traffic expected to increase 50 percent by 2025 and flight delays already causing disruptions in service and lost productivity at the current capacity, a revamped system is needed to accommodate future growth. This system-the Next Generation Air Transportation System, or NextGenwill let passengers fly safely with fewer delays and less congestion, while reducing aviations environmental impact.
