Researchers are exploring the use of large language models (LLMs) for enhancing safety in air traffic control (ATC) and around non-towered airports. One study proposes a vision-language model approach to analyze radio communications, weather data, and flight trajectories for safety assessments, achieving high F1 scores with open-source models. Another paper introduces a safety-oriented evaluation framework that highlights the critical need for consequence-aware metrics, as standard accuracy measures can mask severe risks in ATC operations.
