Enabling high-performing aviation in Europe & worldwide
2 FOUNDING MEMBERS
The future of air traffic
World air traffic will continue to grow.
Europe can benefit from this growth, in offering an attractive "passenger experience": - High level of safety - Punctuality and connectivity - Sustainable infrastructure costs
To achieve this, Europe needs an effective air traffic management system as a core element of the aviation value chain

THE CHANGES WITH SESAR
BEHIND THE SCENE
From 1 Year to 6 Months in advance the flight is scheduled by the airline (about 80% of the schedule is the same as previous season) This information is used by Air Navigation Service Providers to plan their capacity and their sectors opening Routing scenarios are established by the Network Manager
Passengers book their tickets
BEFORE TAKE-OFF
Passengers arrive at the airport, and check in They make their way to the departure gates based on limited information available on screens Boarding commences when the flight is ready
BEHIND THE SCENE
The flight is prepared by the flight planning department between 24 hours to 30 minutes before departure Information is transmitted to the Network Managers and then to the systems of the ANSPs (3 hours before take-off)
BEHIND THE SCENE
A lot of ATM actors are working to prepare the flight (e.g. ground handling agents, Airport operators, ATC, etc) but coordination is not universal So delay in any part of the chain can cause a delay to the flight “Sorry for the inconvenience but this was caused by ATC delays”
THE CHANGE WITH SESAR
Airlines, airports, ANSPs systems become fully interconnected through modern technology and protocols allowing a seamless flow of information This enables: • Collaborative Decision Making
allowing a better usage of the airspace and ANSP capacity
• An optimised turn-around process and an increased predictability of the departure: smoother passenger experience at the airport
• Optimisation of the airlines and airport resources (aircraft, crew, gate, runway…)
TAXI, TAKE OFF AND CLIMB
The passengers sit securely in their seats as the plane taxies out and takes off. The passenger waits for the flight to establish a safe climb before undoing their seatbelt.
BEHIND THE SCENE
The controller gives the departure clearance to the pilot and indicates the taxiing path, all through the VHF radio The aircraft leaves the gate towards the runway threshold and waits for take off clearance at the threshold The pilot is authorised to take off using a fixed departure route The aircraft climbs until a first altitude is reached and waits until the controllers authorises the climb to continue
THE CHANGE WITH SESAR
Controllers are supported by new tools to organise the departure sequence (e.g. SMAN linked with DMAN; Route planning function with airport constraints)
The ATC clearance is given through data communication increasing productivity and safety
The 4D trajectory from Flight Operations Centre is shared seamlessly across ATC sectors enabling fuel efficient continuous climb
Time period (LT) Improvement
6H-7H -15%
9H-10H -9%
12H-13H -8%
18H-19H -37%
EN ROUTE – CRUISE ALTITUDE
Traffic synchronisation covers all aspects related to improving arrival/departure management and sequence building in en route and TMA environments. It aims to achieve an optimum traffic sequence
It’s a busy day in the European skies. Passengers have a refreshment or use this time to get on with some work.
BEHIND THE SCENE
The pilot requests the optimum altitude and speed (as computed by the Flight Management System of the aircraft) The controller has a limited view on the aircraft trajectory, a typical ATC sector is crossed in about 10 minutes by jetliners Inconsistencies between the FMS FPL and the GND system FPL are regular Controlled airspace is too complex to be managed without automation, this leads to inefficiency
BEHIND THE SCENE
ATC sectors can be too busy to give optimum altitude or trajectory Controller instruct pilots: •Radar vectoring “turn left 15°” •Speed reduction •Flight level capping “maintain flight level 310” Military training areas are released allowing new routes to be used for civil traffic but mainly in real time
THE CHANGE WITH SESAR
From an ATC system constraining the trajectory… To …an ATC system supporting the trajectory
THE CHANGE WITH SESAR
AUTOMATION ENABLING HUMAN OPERATORS TO CONCENTRATE ON
HIGH VALUE-ADDED TASKS
AIR-GROUND INTEGRATION GROUND-GROUND INFORMATION EXCHANGE & INTEROPERABILITY
THE CHANGE WITH SESAR
THE CHANGE WITH SESAR
APPROACH AND LANDING
The pilot gives an update to passengers of their flight and the expected time of arrival. As the airplane prepares for landing, passengers return to their seats and fasten their seat belts. The aircraft lands and, back at the Gate, they disembark and continue on their way
BEHIND THE SCENE
The traffic comes from all directions on the arrival sectors (less than 100km from the runway) The controller has to integrate the various traffic flows and coordinate the final descent and approach with the airport arrival position Depending on the traffic pressure at the runway aircrafts have to perform stepped descent or even holding
THE CHANGE WITH SESAR
Extended arrival management enables collaboration across boundaries
Traffic is sequenced much more in advance using the 4D trajectory capability coupled with arrival management tools
