Abstract:

In the last 10 years, icing, turbulence, dangerous winds, a lack of visibility, ; and other weather conditions have been cited as a cause or contributing factor ; in nearly a quarter of aviation accidents. The General Accounting Office (GAO) ; examined the actions FAA has taken to address the recommendations raised by NRC ; and FAA's advisory committee. In this report, the GAO discusses FAA's actions ; in four areas of concern raised by one report by the National Research Council ; (NRC) and two reports by an FAA advisory committee: (1) policy and leadership, ; (2) interagency coordination, (3) meeting different types of users' needs for ; weather information, and (4) the level of funding provided for weather ; activities.
