LINK 2000+ First Datalink Implementation Implementing En-route CPDLC over ATN/VDL2 Baseline ICAO standards Forward compatible with new services/technology Programme Objectives ACL – ATC Clearances ACM – ATC Microphone Check ACM – ATC Communications Management Above FL285

LINK 2000+ First Datalink Implementation Implementing En-route CPDLC over ATN/VDL2 Baseline ICAO standards Forward compatible with new services/technology Programme Objectives Overall 11% Capacity Gain Reduced Controller Workload Increased Safety Fewer Misunderstandings Above FL285 Infrastructure Basis FDPS, Avionics, A-G tech. >>> SESAR

Implementation Strategy Pioneers Incentives Mandate 1 Pioneers Objective: 100+ aircraft equipped/ MAAS UAC ACHIEVED – >400 committed Incentives Objective: accelerate Airborne equipage for early benefits ACHIEVED – EC TENT-EA Funding Granted Mandatory Implementation - SES IR For Operators and ANSPs Objective: more than 75% of flights in LINK airspace by 2015 ACHIEVED - EC Reg. No 29/2009 Published 2 NOW WE JUST NEED TO IMPLEMENT 3

Which Aircraft shall equip? A/C operating IFR/GAT in the EU data link Airspace (FL>285)‏ All aircraft flying the EU data link airspace unless exempted under following conditions

Automatic Exemptions – Article 3 a/c with individual airworthiness certificate before 01/01/2014 and equipped with FANS ED-100, ED-100A certified data link equipment a/c which are at least 20 years old and planned for cease of operations before December 2017 a/c flying for testing, delivery and maintenance purposes State a/c but those entering into service after 1 January 2014 should comply with the rule if equipped with non-military data-link

DLS-IR Exemptions Under Article 14 Application to EU Needed Aircraft types reaching the end of their production life and being produced in limited numbers Aircraft types for which re-engineering costs required would be disproportionate due to old design Case must be Made by Applicants Can be Permanent or Temporary for Forward Fit Applications for Temporary Exemptions before Nov 17th 2010, otherwise it will not be possible for the Commission to form an opinion in due time before the Forward Fit date itself i.e. Jan 2011.

LINK Objectives for 2010 Concrete Implementation plan for LINK 2013 ANSPs Contact the 2015 ANSPs Survey Complete Results in PRISME Plan & provide Test & Expert support to ANSPs and Airlines So far mainly Airborne but 24 ANSPs now request support Validate Multi-Frequency VDL Mode 2 Flight Tests Dec 2010 Finalise Contracts with Airlines for the LINK Incentives Scheme Contracts with 23 Airlines being signed >> 712 aircraft

Incentives For Airborne Equipage EUROCONTROL Application to TENT-EA made March 15th 2009 Requested by IATA/AEA/IACA/ERAA/EBAA Evaluation Passed – Decision Final 22/12/2009, 19.3M€ >50% Must be Spent by End 2010 25% End 2011 25% End 2012

Incentives Status 3 Calls for Tender launched January, June & August From 1st call 19 Airlines will be contracted From 2nd & 3rd call evaluation in progress But numbers much lower than in 1st call More than 700 aircraft to be equipped, But not all the Grant money will be used

Central Reporting Office (CRO) Is it all Working? - INTEROPERABILTY How Well? – PERFORMANCE Problems? - INVESTIGATE
