Static sector characteristics and operational errors / Scott Goldman, Carol Manning, Elaine Pfleiderer.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether factors that predicted operational errors (OE) at the Atlanta Air Route Traffic Control Center (ZTL) in a study conducted by Rodgers et al. (1998) would also predict OE occurrence at other facilities. Failure to reduce en route operational errors (O...

| Summary: | The purpose of this study was to determine whether factors that predicted operational errors (OE) at the Atlanta Air Route Traffic Control Center (ZTL) in a study conducted by Rodgers et al. (1998) would also predict OE occurrence at other facilities. Failure to reduce en route operational errors (OEs) in recent years has resulted in FAA efforts to develop programs aimed at OE reduction. Several studies identified airspace complexity as a major contributor to en route OEs. In FY04, the office of AT Investigations initiated a project to examine the relationship between en route sector characteristics and the occurrence of OEs. The expectation was that the same variables identified in the Rodgers et al. (1998) study would also predict OE occurrence in this study, which describes preliminary analyses conducted using sector characteristics and operational error data from the Indianapolis Center (ZID) |
