It’s Back! ATCA/FAA/NASA Technical Symposium Returns to Atlantic City
By Marion Hixon ust weeks away, the 2011 ATCA/FAA/NASA Technical Symposium will take place May 17 – 19 at Resorts Hotel & Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Nearing 500 attendees, the conference has grown greatly in attendance over the past five years. “This year’s Technical Symposium features influential thoughtleaders in aviation whose perspectives I look forward to hearing during this time when there is such heightened interest in air traffic control,” says Peter F. Dumont, President & CEO of the Air Traffic Control Association (ATCA). “As the Technical Symposium grows wider in scope, ATCA and its Conference Committee have worked hard to deliver a robust program relevant to current ATC/ATM issues and responsive to membership requests for panel sessions.”
