Worldwide Symposium on Performance of the Air Navigation System, Montreal, 29 March Current RNAV Procedures in Japan Implemented 50NM lateral and longitudinal separation minima (based on RNP10) over NOPAC and CENPAC since 1998 and 2006, respectively Established three RNAV routes in 1992 Implemented 60 RNAV routes as of March 2007 Oceanic Airspace En Route Established FMS arrival route in Tokyo (Haneda) in 1999 Expanded to five other airports since 2004 Established RNAV (GNSS) approaches with Baro-VNAV at selected airports Terminal Area Approaches

Worldwide Symposium on Performance of the Air Navigation System, Montreal, 29 March Background Growing traffic demands  JCAB has predicted that air traffic in Japan will increase by 34 percent from 2005 to 2017  New runways at airports in Asia Fuel savings and reduce noise  Reduce fuel, reduce emissions and reduce noise High performance aircraft  Increased number of aircraft equipped with multifunctional FMS and GPS

Worldwide Symposium on Performance of the Air Navigation System, Montreal, 29 March Capacity and Efficiency 52  Restructuring of ATS routes and airspace  Flexible use of airspace  RNAV  Reduction of separation minima Procedures  In order to accommodate growing traffic and increase efficiency, new capabilities should be introduced.  New capabilities will employ a combination of procedures and systems, such as a restructuring of ATS routes/airspace, and ATC support tools, which would increase controller capability and reduce workload.  New ATC workstations with controller support tools  Data link (ADS/CPDLC)  GNSS Systems

Worldwide Symposium on Performance of the Air Navigation System, Montreal, 29 March JCAB Initiatives  Developed “RNAV Roadmap for Japan” in April  Decided on an evolutionary implementation of RNAV procedures in Japan, and to continue working collaboratively with the operators on the implementation.  Established RNAV Implementation Team in October 2005 for implementing RNAV according to the RNAV Roadmap. JCAB established a Steering Committee and Work Group in 2004  Composed of JCAB, operators, and aviation industry representatives  The purpose was to review the current RNAV procedures, and develop an RNAV implementation plan for Japan

Worldwide Symposium on Performance of the Air Navigation System, Montreal, 29 March JCAB Study 4.Reviewed procedures currently available and identified procedures to be developed  Certification, Operational Approvals, Design Criteria, ATC Procedures, and Flight Inspection 2.Studied current and forecasted aircraft equipage 3.Studied airspace and infrastructure 1.Reviewed current operations (en route and terminal) International Harmonization
