Work has now begun on the next build, 5.4.0.0, with AJV - 7 (Requirements) and NATCA b oth identifying fixes/improvements that the three facilities wo uld like to have in the future. Although there is no set timeline for the next release, it is expected by the end of this year or early next year, depending on how much we try and fit into the build. CLT Along with the completed training mentioned above, the facility has also completed TSS training that consisted of four hours for each contro ller. The facility has also been able to work out two to four hours of " shadow ops " for each of the controllers. During the week of IOC, six operational members of the TFDM team will be in CLT as support, along with four to six people from the tech center. This will allow us to have two to three people per shift for support durin g the first week of operations. Additional support wi ll be determined after the first week ' s worth of ops. There is a patch for the 5.3.0.3 build with a list of six fixes based on CLT ' s early usage of the system. This patch will be tested in the tech center in early July, and pending a successful test, will be ready for the facility to begin using in the middle of July.
