Today's National Airspace System (NAS) is a mixed-capability environment. Aircraft are equipped with a variety of communication, navigation, and surveillance technologies which, combined with certification and crew training, leads to a wide spectrum of performance for NAS flights. However, current NAS automation and decision support tools do not have full visibility into flight capabilities. In the absence of such information, managing a mixed-capability flow tactically is a high-workload activity, leading traffic controllers no choice but to assume the lowest capability level for all flights.
