Title: Assessing the Past, Present and Future of Aviation Fuel Efficiency
Author(s): Nastaran Coleman*+

Abstract:

This paper creates a multivariate regression model of total aviation fuel consumption. The model's inputs include over a decade of monthly observations of fuel consumption, numbers of flights, numbers of passengers, miles flown, fleet mix and load factors. Using the regression, efficiencies due to Federal Aviation Administration initiatives over the past decades are isolated and measured. Finally, fast-time simulation results on fuel efficiency from future new initiatives, together called NextGen, are summarized.
