ATHENS, OHIO – Ohio University’s Russ College of Engineering and Technology’s Avionics Research Center has signed a five-year, $7.5 million research agreement with the Federal Aviation Administration to provide technical support to the analysis, testing and development of numerous navigation systems in the National Airspace System.
Continuing a partnership that spans decades, the FAA will tap center faculty, staff and graduate students to investigate ground- and satellite-based navigation and landing systems, the transition to the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen), approach lighting systems, as well as other services.
