ABSTRACT
In the Free Flight Phase 1 (FFP1) Implementation Program a
limited deployment of the core capabilities of several decision
support systems will be evaluated at a number of operational
sites. One component is the User Request Evaluation Tool
(URET). URET will be implemented at seven Air Route Traffic
Control Centers (ARTCCs) as part of FFP1. This document
presents a detailed description of the URET benefits. Summaries
of studies show the benefits in each of three areas: safety, FAA
productivity, and airspace user cost savings. The plan for benefits
measurement during FFP1 is also discussed.
A URET prototype is currently being used daily at the
Indianapolis and Memphis ARTCCs. Much of what is described
in this report comes from the operational use of the prototype at
these centers.
