NTSB Safety Recommendation — Aviation
Recommendation text
THE NTSB RECOMMENDS THAT THE FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION: INSTITUTE MEASURES, INCLUDING APPROPRIATE CHANGES TO FAA HANDBOOK 7400.2C AND FAA ORDER 8260.19A, TO IMPROVE COORDINATION BETWEEN PERSONNEL INVOLVED IN THE DESIGN OF THE TERMINAL CONTROL AREA AND AIRPORT RADAR SERVICE AREA AIRSPACE AND THOSE INVOLVED IN THE DESIGN OF THE INSTRUMENT APPROACH PROCEDURES TO PREVENT THE CREATION OF POTENTIAL HAZARDS TO THE USERS OF THE AIR TRAFFIC SYSTEM.
In plain language (FlightFinder summary)
The NTSB asks the FAA to take steps—including revisions to Handbook 7400.2C and Order 8260.19A—to enhance coordination between teams that design terminal control area and airport radar service area airspace and those that design instrument approach procedures, in order to avoid creating hazards for airspace users.
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.
