NM/4ACCs Initiative
High Traffic Growth and Complexity for Summer 2018
Scope of the Initiative Network Manager and 4 ANSPs - DFS, DSNA, MUAC and NATS Joined by Belgocontrol, LVNL, Naviair, PANSA, LFV, ENAIRE, ENAV, ANS Czech Republic, Austrocontrol, skyguide, LPS Slovakia
A True Network Approach Addresses high traffic growth and operational complexity Common strategy on how to prepare, manage and deliver a better service along the most critical areas of the European network European and multilateral network dimension It creates a global situational awareness that was hardly possible before European subsidiarity/proportionality concept into action Measures best achieved at network level, even if some are local/regional
Methodology Detailed operational information from all ANSPs Busy week and week-end days simulated High traffic forecast for 2018 Detailed routings as operated by the airspace users More than 1200 ATC sectors assessed in different configurations New airspace changes introduced, including new sectorisations All scenarios coordinated and simulated by the Network Manager
Available controllers Methodology Configurations Available controllers Opening schemes Capacities Sectorisation

Outcome Example
Benefits Reduction of the overall Network delay Approximately 5 million minutes of delay saved. Cooperative Network approach Network Manager + 4 ANSPs + 11 ANSPs Mutual ANSP support for Network benefit coordinated by the Network Manager New ATS Routes To better facilitate traffic between the Northern/Southern Europe Network/Local Measures Coordinated route orientation measures enabling strategic planning Optimum Network solution From an ATFM point of view From a flight efficiency point of view
Setting a Standard Solutions can be found at network level, through a transparent cooperation between the Network Manager and the ANSPs Solid foundation for future similar initiatives Network benefit the priority
