2 The ATM Strategy for the Years As from MATSE/6 decision (Jan. 2000): To cater for forecast increase in demand up to 2015 & beyond To pave the way for a seamless European ATM System As from MATSE/6 decision (Jan. 2000): To cater for forecast increase in demand up to 2015 & beyond To pave the way for a seamless European ATM System Need for a New Strategy: ATM2000+ EATCHIP achievements significant, but not enough to cater for continuing growth of demand Lessons learned on difficulties to work together Need to extend time horizon of strategy Institutional framework revisited in 1997 –performance driven
3 ATM: Partners in the Air Transport Network Decisions (planning & real-time operations) of one partner impact the others Realisation of Gate-to-Gate –Consistent management of all phases of flight –Uniform principles –Integration of airport airside operations into ATM –Regional capacity development plan –Collective benefits –Share information –Collaborative Decision Making (CDM) Policy Economics Airports Operations Aircraft Operations ATM Operations Environment
4 ATM Challenges Simultaneously: –Generate extra Capacity –Increase Safety Levels –Reduce ATM-related Unit Costs –Successfully manage & implement change Challenges –Realise an Airspace Continuum for ATM –Create a Gate-to-Gate ATM Network –Set up an effective Rule-making Process –Separate service regulation & provision
Departures (millions)/Rate per million Accidents Year 1975 Accident rate Traffic growth (2) Accident number (1) Effect of Static Accident Rate and Traffic Growth on Number of Accidents Safety Challenge: De-coupling Accidents and Traffic Growth Public perception Rate to be drastically lowered Unacceptable scenario Source : Flight Safety Foundation

8 European Danger / Restricted / Prohibited Military Areas Challenge: Flexible Use of Airspace
9 Road Map of Change through Time An overall perspective to prepare decisions –Not a frozen blue print –Where to go, what to do and when to be ready in due time Top-down, performance-driven planning –With feed back to take actual progress and operational experience into account Lead to a European Programme, with actions by all Stakeholders
& beyond : Safety Management System; co-operative ATM Concept; integrated air/ground systems; integrated planning and management of air traffic; redistribution of tasks (human/machine; controller/controller; controller/pilot), CDM / SWIM. Full Gate-to-Gate Concept in one Airspace Continuum : Coherent safety levels; integration of ATM with system partners; dynamic management of the airspace network; accelerated integration of GND/AIR Systems; trajectory prediction and conflict avoidance; advanced support tools; airborne traffic situational awareness; Aeronautical Information Management. Accelerating Integration : improved Safety levels, dynamic flow and capacity management; seamless airspace organisation; dynamic airspace allocation; enhanced Airport Operation; improved ATM systems; increased system support to controller Increasing Productivity Up to 2004: focus on safety and capacity; optimal airspace organisation; pro-active traffic flow management; refined Airport ATC; human resources management; Europe’s best practice Improving Capacity From Today’s Best Practice to a New Operational Concept
