North Star Group, LLC, (NSG) a leading provider of Program Management, Systems Engineering, Acquisition Services, Communications and Outreach Support to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), announced today the release of a Free FAA Acronyms Mobile App.  NSG will debut the new FAA Acronyms Mobile App at the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International’s (AUVSI) Unmanned Systems Program Review.

The NSG Free FAA Acronyms Mobile App is an easy to use, searchable list of many of the commonly used acronyms used by the FAA and the aviation industry.  The app is downloadable for iOS and Android mobile devices including iPhones, iPads, and Android hand-held and tablet mobile devices. The app allows users to search an extensive list of commonly used FAA acronyms for their definitions. A special feature of the app’s service allows users to submit FAA or aviation industry related acronyms to NSG, which can be added to the app’s acronym list.  This enables the Free FAA Acronyms App to be a living app updated consistently by NSG and users alike—one of the first living apps of its kind.

NSG’s extensive program management experience on two of FAA’s largest NextGen programs, Data Comm and SWIM, allows us to be a valuable resource to the UAS commercial marketplace.” FAA estimates that more than 30,000 private UAS will be in use in U.S. skies by 2020.
