The Air Traffic Airspace Management Division (ATA) is a diverse
area of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and is comprised
of several areas of speciality as indicated in the
Organizational Diagram.
All of these areas of speciality must work together to ensure
the United States Air Traffic Control System remains the safest
in the world and maintains a focus on the needs of all users.
Our task is to recognize users needs and determine the course
most beneficial to all and not a single entity.The Airspace
Liaison Team (ALT) was formed to focus on this task and facilitate
the users needs in the National Airspace System (NAS).

necessary to effectively and efficiently manage the structure
of the national airspace. Each of the ATA divisional functions,
working together as an integrated team, along with working
together with other organizations, agencies and users,will
ensure the logical and efficient use of the national airspace.
