Visit ATCA’s Stand 201 on the Exhibition Hall Floor “World ATM Congress has changed the

world of ATM! It brought together two great organizations, ATCA and CANSO, to create global integration of the key players in the ATM industry. Although there were many hurdles and difficulties when the concept was proposed, the two teams persevered and all of the ATM world has reaped the reward. I am as proud of my involvement in bringing these two great organizations together as anything in my professional career.

”

SESAR and Partners at World ATM Congress 2017 Partnering for Excellence in Global Aviation See seven industry heavyweights all at one place – Stand 889!

artnering for excellence in global aviation” is the theme of the activities taking place at the SESAR stand and Exchange Theater during World ATM Congress. The activities are hosted by the SESAR Joint Undertaking (SESAR JU) and the SESAR Deployment Manager (SESAR DM) in collaboration with the European Commission, Network Manager, European Defence Agency, European Aviation Safety Agency, and EUROCAE, the European leader on industry standards in aviation. SESAR and its support of the Single European Sky is recognised in the EU Aviation Strategy as key to boosting Europe’s economy and secure its leading role in international aviation. In this respect, the suc-

cessful delivery and implementation of new globally interoperable and innovative solutions by SESAR rely on strong collaboration between all aviation stakeholders and the different mechanisms and bodies of the Single European Sky (SES). The SESAR stand and theatre will feature a wide variety of sessions, which will illustrate with concrete examples how SESAR works with their partners and with ANSPs, airports, airspace users, industry, the scientific community, and staff associations represented through the SESAR JU and SESAR DM partnerships. The featured activities will demonstrate the benefits that this coordinated approach is bringing to airspace, not only users and passengers, but the overall European economy.

World ATM

Join your colleagues, as well as ATM leaders and innovators from around the world — air traffic controllers, ANSPs, aviation manufacturers and suppliers, airline executives, military and government officials, young aviation professionals, and aviation trade associations.

KVM FROM G&D

IT control that towers above the rest

—List as of 22 February

LEADING THE WAY IN DIGITAL KVM From the ANSP to the controller to the technician, everyone’s better off with KVM. For the service provider, KVM adds flexibility to IT infrastructure. It enables emergency work-arounds, improves workflows, adds reliability to redundancy concepts and provides continuous, uninterrupted IT availability. ATCOs enjoy a computer-free environment. Moving the computers to a central location creates less noise, less heat and more space to create better working conditions in the control room. And the system’s more reliable too! With KVM, technicians can access several systems from a range of locations - not just their workplace. Administration is made easier and maintenance too: the computers are stored centrally so no more crawling under desks. There’s also more time for maintenance because ATCOs can be simply switched to a back-up system whenever it’s required. For optimum IT system control, improved working conditions and increased system safety, there’s only one all-round answer – KVM from G&D.

10.00 – 11.00 Session One: Responding to Geopolitical Change and Black Swans ATM is adept at handling challenges at the operational level on a daily basis – but what about the broader geopolitical changes now taking place and not within the control of ATM? For this session we have asked a high profile and highly respected airline CEO to highlight the airline requirements of ATM, to describe how significant changes have been faced and overcome in the recent past and how the airline is “creating the right culture” to overcome even greater challenges in the future. How exactly does the airline inspire a common view and recognition amongst its management, staff, shareholders, regulator and others of its planned changes? How does an organisation ensure it has a culture of adapting with

With such a strong emphasis on safety and an almost in-built resistance to change in ATM, what are the ‘new ingredients’ that will enable the right culture to drive improved performance through innovation and acceptance of new concepts and technologies? How do we ensure positive challenges to conventional thinking and facilitate new, more holistic thinking to the emerging and critical issues facing ATM? Are there different approaches for management, staff, industry partners and regulators or is a generic partnership approach the best way forward?

Keynote Speaker:

Willie Walsh, Chief Executive Officer, IAG

Economic Outlook:

timely and speedy responses not only to the ‘predicted’ future but also to the sudden shifts in traffic flows and traffic growth caused by factors such as Brexit, US political change, fuel prices, strong currency swings, major international conflicts, natural disasters, etc.? How does the global aviation industry survive and thrive in an increasingly isolationist political environment?

Drones, remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS), unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), whatever the name, they are already with us and there is much debate on the challenges to and the implications for airspace management. How can we bring together and properly integrate some fundamentally different ways of thinking, different cultures and operational concepts of operations as well as different business models and social drivers? Numerous research, operational, policy and regulatory initiatives are underway on Unmanned Aircraft System Traffic Management (UTM) concepts – but what new frameworks, approaches and responsibilities are needed to coordinate and harmonise the airspace implications of UTM, given so many different organisations and stakeholders with such diverse (and often conflicting) interests and cultures?

Is a new approach needed to enable all to embrace the opportunities but prevent fragmented approaches, duplications and gaps? How will autonomous operations, and standards, driven as much by market forces as aviation requirements, affect the role of regulation and change the existing paradigms of ATM? This session will look at how the European Commission is intending to establish oversight of drones and its implications for ATM, followed by a panel discussion to provide some broader perspectives.

For NextGen, a Good Year with More to Come

he FAA’s NextGen modernisation effort is on track and delivering benefits to aircraft operators and airports in the NAS as the agency continues to deploy major systems and capabilities in close cooperation with aviation stakeholders. Major achievements show a positive trend line: The FAA provided the capability for Data Comm departure clearance to towers at 55 airports by December 2016 — two and a half years ahead of schedule. The FAA has already published more than 9,000 Performance Based Navigation (PBN) arrival, approach, and departure procedures and highand low-altitude PBN routes, which provide precise flight paths across the United States. PBN paths are much more direct than inefficient legacy flight paths. The agency is building on this achievement to make PBN the primary form of air navigation in the NAS as outlined in the “PBN NAS Navigation Strategy” published in 2016. Data Comm was identified as a priority by the NextGen Advisory Committee, a 28-member federal advisory committee comprising a cross section of senior executives

from airlines, airports, general aviation, manufacturers, the Department of Defense, and environmental agencies, along with international interests, pilots, and air traffic controllers. “NextGen is on track to meet all of its original, high-level objectives by 2025,” said Jim Eck, FAA assistant administrator for NextGen. “When we work together to solve the problems of traffic and congestion in our busy airspace, we can save fuel,

reduce carbon emissions, and increase on-time arrivals and departures.” NextGen will move the NAS to time-based management supported by trajectory based operations (TBO) as more and more NextGen systems and capabilities are deployed. TBO involves pilots, controllers, air traffic managers, airlines, and other NAS operators exchanging four-dimensional trajectories — the three spatial dimensions plus time

— for flight planning, strategic operations management, aircraft sequencing, spacing, and separation. TBO will shift the FAA from supporting individual flight paths and trajectories to gate-to-gate, NASwide trajectory operations that extend benefits to all phases of flight. Controllers are already using some NextGen time-based management decision support systems. For example, en route air traffic controllers already use the Time Based Flow Management (TBFM) tool’s scheduled times to manually speed up or slow down aircraft hundreds of miles from destination airports in order to achieve the proper sequence and seamlessly execute optimized profile descents. The FAA has already deployed its Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Broadcast (ADS-B) system and its System Wide Information Management (SWIM) system. The agency also started operations with the Standard Terminal Automation Replacement System (STARS) at the 11 largest terminal radar approach control facilities in the US. These facilities handle 80 percent of US air traffic in terminal areas. While » continued on page 15

Preview Madrid 2017 NOW Indra, Key Partner in SESAR 2020, on Second Phase of One of World’s Most Ambitious Air Traffic R&D Program

ndra, one of the premier global consulting and technology companies, will play a prominent role in the second phase to create the Single European Sky, called SESAR 2020. The company will take part in 25 of the 27 projects launched at the beginning of this second phase, and in two cases it will be the project leader. SESAR is one of the world’s most ambitious initiatives in the field of air traffic research and development. The project is transforming air travel in Europe by greatly enhancing efficiency, safety, punctuality, and convenience for passengers. The first phase of the program ended in 2016, while the second phase, known as SESAR 2020, will be implemented over the next five years. The work in this phase is broken down into two broad packages. The first one commences now and will be executed between 2017 and 2019, and the second one will run from 2019 to 2021. The award of these new contracts strengthens Indra’s position in this strategic project promoted by the European Commission in partnership with EUROCONTROL and the

main companies in the sector. Indra has played a leading role in SESAR since it was launched in 2006. Greater punctuality of flights Indra will lead two of the key projects that mark the beginning of SESAR 2020. The aim of the first one is to further the development of 4D trajectory-based flight management systems, a technology that allows aircraft to choose the most direct route and plan flights with an unprecedented accuracy and an error margin of only seconds for landing time. This project will enable Indra to continue the work it has already completed for SESAR. The company played a key role in the world’s first flight trials ever performed with this technology, carried out in 2014 on a flight covering the ToulouseCopenhagen route. For SESAR 2020, Indra will provide new tools and more advanced capabilities to these 4D trajectorybased flight management systems, facilitating a single complete and real-time view of flight information for the entire aeronautical community.

This stage of the program will also include the first trials involving different countries, control centres, and aircraft, aimed at testing the systems in an environment that reflects the real dimensions and complexity of the future Single European Sky. Regarding Indra’s second project, the company will focus on developing a series of common services for all the actors involved in managing flights in Europe, both civilian and military. These services will facilitate

smoother and coordinated air traffic management while generating significant cost savings. Specifically, the company will work to ensure that European ANSPs can share a range of tools, including, among others, the system for redistributing and balancing capacity in situations of congestion, the trajectory prediction system that air traffic control centres across the continent will use, and the digital aeronautical charts service.

not a NextGen program itself, the STARS system enables numerous NextGen capabilities in the terminal environment. The FAA will continue to deliver useful and measurable benefits to the aviation industry and the NAS. Those are highlighted on the NextGen Performance Snapshots website. In 2016, the FAA and the aviation industry agreed upon a rolling plan to re-examine the needs of the NAS and its users and to add milestones through 2019.
