Change in Air Traffic Management infrastructure is inevitable

•

EUROPEAN CHALLENGES:

Capacity: Air Traffic to double by 2030

Safety: Improvements linked to growth

Environment: Growth must be ‘green’

Economics: Incentives & liberalisation

Operations: Eliminate fragmentation

Technology: All above & interoperability

48 trials in Santa Maria, PortugalOceanic

Lateral, Vertical and Longitudinal optimization

▪ On Air France flights from Paris to Caribbean West Indies (B777) and also TAP flights between Portugal and North, Central and South America (A330).

▪ Vertical:

▪ Cruise climb at Mach 0.80, with an average climb rate of 250 ft/min, from flight level 370 to 390, over a distance flown of around 1600 NM.

▪ Lateral:

▪ the pilot was allowed to optimize the route with the most up-to-date meteorological information. After the update of met data, a new flight plan was calculated while the aircraft was in-flight. At this point, in some cases, the route could be optimized and thus a different route was flown.

▪ Longitudinal:

▪ the study used the comparison of the flight plans computed with derived constant Mach number and with the actual Cost Index (CI).

CO2 savings of 90 – 650 kg per flight The FAA coordination on some of the trials allowed the

extension of the flight profile optimisation from Santa Maria FIR to New York Oceanic FIR.

Procedure is now available for use in day-to-day operation

2015 campaign overall planning

• Pre-campaign

– Activities to gather information required to meet stakeholder expectations/de-risk activity

• Campaign

– Launch event December 16th

– JAN-MAR: deployment packaging & scenarios development– MAR-JUN: prioritization & consolidation

• Post-campaign

– Formal consultation and endorsement phase (SSC, AAB, ADB)

3 focus areas- Performance Needs- MIL ATC Ground inventory (with EDA)- OIs and Step 2 consultation integration
