In September 2009, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) received the RTCA’s Task Force 5 Final Report on Mid-Term NextGen Implementation containing recommendations concerning the top priorities for the implementation of NextGen initiatives. A key component of the RTCA recommendations is the formation of teams leveraging FAA and Industry Performance Based Navigation (PBN) expertise and experience to expedite implementation of optimized airspace and procedures. Optimization of Airspace and Procedures in the Metroplex (OAPM) is a systematic, integrated, and expedited approach to implementing PBN procedures and associated airspace changes. OAPM was developed in direct response to the recommendations from RTCA’s Task Force 5 on the quality, timeliness, and scope of metroplex solutions. OAPM focuses on a geographic area, rather than a single airport. This approach considers multiple airports and the airspace surrounding a metropolitan area, including all types of operations, as well as connectivity with other metroplexes. OAPM projects will have an expedited life-cycle of approximately three years from planning to implementation.
