Abstract:The Early Implementation Project (EIP), established by FAA Administrator Admiral
Donald C. Engen, was the initial step in the process of Loran integration into the
National Airsace System (NAS). The EIP was designed to give the FAA and the Loran
user community experience in the operational use of Loran. The success of the entire
Loran aviation program--particularly the EIP--depended upon the active participation
of many organizations inside and outside the FAA. The experience gained in the EIP
has helped the FAA make the transition from the limited project to the fully
operational system at airports around the country and general users operating with
TSO standard receivers. The EIP also serves as a model of, the introduction of the
Global Positioning System (GPS) into the NAS during the 1990s.
