Aviation Navigation Systems: Maintenance & Certification Seminar

About the Workshop

navaids

The FAA owns, operates, and maintains Aviation Navigation Systems across the country. States, and individual airports, have enhanced the federal system with additional non-fed installations over time. States and airports certify and maintain the systems they own to standards required by FAA. As technology has advanced, some systems have not, leading to workforce and training challenges. This one-day informational seminar explored equipment types, certification requirements, and strategies for system management.
