To assure consistency in agency planning, the Office of Aviation Policy and Plans provides an extension of its annual 12-year forecasts of aviation demand. Although forecast values are shown for specific years, year-to-year fluctuations are difficult to forecast precisely. Therefore, the projections reflect the trend of average conditions expected

This plan outlines a test of Threat Image Projection (TIP) validity. Airport security screens will evaluate whether fictional threat images (FTIs) are as realistic as actual threat images. The test will compare screener performance on real threat items, FTIs, and Combined Threat Images (CTIs). Performance measures will assess difference in hits, mi

This Test and Evaluation Plan describes the evaluation process of dual-view x-ray technology. While a conventional Rapiscan X-ray machine presents only a top-down view of passenger baggage, their Dual View system presents both a top-down and a side view. Screener performance with this additional view will be compared to performance with only the co
