A summary of the air transportation technology program is presented. The following topics were examined: (1) fuel use characteristics of general aviation aircraft; (2) dead-reckoning concept incorporating a fluidic rate sensor; (3) experimentation with an ultrasonic altimeter; (4) development of laser-based collision avoidance systems; (5) flight path reconstruction from sequential DME data; (6) application of fiber optics in flight control systems; and (7) voice recognition inputs for navigation/communication receiver tuning.
