This report, from NASA and the National Research Council, assesses federal wake turbulence research and development programs to consider whether goals to address the issue of wake turbulence as a barrier to increased air traffic are well-defined, whether there are any deficiencies in them, and what the roles of federal agencies should be. The Committee to Conduct an Independent Assessment of the Nation's Wake Turbulence Research and Development Program was formed for the task, and here enumerates findings and recommendations relating to organizational and technical challenges, as well as describing a wake turbulence program plan. Committee members work in academia, industry, and government. There is no index. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
