NTSB Safety Recommendation — Aviation
Recommendation text
TO THE FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION: Establish and implement standard procedures to document and share control information, such as frequency changes, contact with pilots, and the confirmation of the receipt of weather information, at air traffic control facilities that do not currently have such a procedure. These procedures should provide visual communication of at least the control information that would be communicated by the marking and posting of paper flight-progress strips described in Federal Aviation Administration Order 7110.65, Air Traffic Control.
In plain language (FlightFinder summary)
The FAA is asked to create and implement standard procedures for documenting and sharing control information—such as frequency changes, pilot contacts, and confirmation of weather receipt—at air traffic control facilities that currently lack such procedures. These procedures must provide a visual means of communicating at least the control information that would be conveyed by marking and posting paper flight-progress strips as described in Federal Aviation Administration Order 7110.65, Air Traffic Control.
This plain-language summary is written by FlightFinder to explain the recommendation above. It is not the official wording — the verbatim NTSB text is quoted above.
