SATS is a research program
funded by NASA to explore new technologies for general
aviation.
The possibilities are endless. Over
98% of the nation's population lives within 30 minutes
of a small airport. The SATS system will provide an alternative
to road congestion and airport delays. The research
being done in this program will allow new technology to
be put in aircraft that will make it easier, and safer
to fly. Small airports will have the ability to
handle more traffic than ever before. New manufacturing
techniques, engines and technologies, will provide consumers
with aircraft that have jet-like performance at very low
prices.
The Southeast SATSlab is one of
four Labs operating in the country performing research
for NASA, DOT and FAA. The Southeast SATSlab is a consortium
of over 65 different industry members all offering their
expertise and doing research in: avionics, simulation,
aircraft manufacturing, navigation and smart airport technology,
airborne internet and air transportation. Local government,
airports and trade associations are also involved in support
of this research and the future economic benefit it provides.
