Present for the telecon were: Martin Eby Andy Zeitlin Steve Koczo Joel Wichgers Steban Parik Jonathan Hammer Lynn Martin Dave Spencer Ganghuai Wang Ann Drumm Steban reviewed the activity diagrams for unmanaged airspace, and managed with delegation. Autonomous airspace is the region where ACM is expected to provide the most benefit. Michael P. noted that the diagrams seemed to treat the application as something that has a specific start and stop, rather than as an application that would be used continuously in all phases of flight. The latter is what is anticipated by the application description. There was discussion of whether figure is right for all phases; Jonathan thought figure was good. Note will be added to make it a little more general; yet it is a procedure for autonomous operation. Steban agreed to add the long term alert to the diagrams. There was some discussion about the prominence of the System Test and similar functions in the diagrams. When you have a continuity failure during critical part of the procedure; otherwise state assumption that system flags any detected failures and the procedure is aborted.
