April 2010

William P. Niedringhaus, The MITRE Corporation
Andrew R. Lacher, The MITRE Corporation

ABSTRACT

MITRE was interested in also exploring in a bit more detail how the operation of a UAS might impact operations and traffic flows in positively controlled airspace, that is, operations in Class A airspace (above 18000 feet) where all traffic is under Air Traffic Control (ATC) and must file a flight plan with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Our study asks what impact the Global Hawk might have on traffic in a specific Oakland Air Route Traffic Control Center (ARTCC) sector.
