On September 12, 2013, Hudson's Initiative on Future Innovation convened a distinguished panel of experts from government, business, and the academic world for an off-the-record workshop on a working draft of Organization and Innovation in Air Traffic Control by Robert W. Poole, Jr. Mr. Poole, one of America's foremost experts on air- and surface-transportation policy, is director of transportation policy at the Reason Foundation and author of its widely followed Air Traffic Control Reform newsletter. Organization and Innovation in Air Traffic Control -- since published in final form as the third in a series of major research papers by Hudson's Innovation Initiative, and available for download under the "Further Reading" header elsewhere on this page -- is a both a definitive study of current U.S. air traffic control policy and a sweeping proposal for administrative and regulatory reform to create a new, technologically advanced, and dynamic system of air transportation in the United States.
