The FAA’s “Next Generation Air Transportation System”, NextGen for short, uses satellites to streamline airplane descents. At Reagan National Airport the new NextGen arrival sequences have been named in honor of those who lost their lives in the tragedies of September 11, 2001. The arrival sequences have a series of waypoints which each have five-letter names. The sequence named FRDMM (Freedom) contains "WEEEE," "WLLLL," "NEVVR," "FORGT" and "SEP 11." Other waypoints include "LETZZ," "RLLLL.”
