Statement of Task
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will appoint a planning committee to organize a workshop to examine issues related to the long-term impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the aviation industry at large and steps taken by the industry to mitigate negative impacts. The workshop will also identify areas where more research is needed to address any gaps in understanding that are revealed.
The workshop will consider four areas:
- Economic—assess the financial projections of the aviation industry’s original equipment manufacturers, supply chains, airlines, airports, and relevant aviation support facilities during and after the pandemic;
- Personnel—evaluate the disruptions relating to the aviation community workforce and training pipeline, including impacts on attracting and retaining expertise during and after the pandemic;
- Technology—assess the impact on research and development timelines for emerging technologies due to both financial and workforce disruptions; and
- Next Steps—begin to develop a roadmap that involves all stakeholders to address long-term issues related to this and future pandemics.
A proceedings summarizing the presentations and discussions at the workshop will be prepared by a designated rapporteur in accordance with institutional guidelines.
