Implementation Challenges Need quicker, better, faster! Timely flow to implementation

6 Worldwide Symposium on Performance of the Air Navigation System, Montreal, 29 March 2007 6 Measures of Success Leveraging capability Global interoperability Value and Benefits to Users, ATC/Airports leading to investment in upgrades and more advances in aircraft capabilities Simpler operation qualification and approvals e.g. like GPS RNAV today

So far, fewer actually being used Leveraging Capability

12 Worldwide Symposium on Performance of the Air Navigation System, Montreal, 29 March 2007 12 Global Interoperability ICAO RNP Special Operational Requirements Study Group coordination in the development of ICAO manual for Performance Based Navigation. Clarification of concepts, and guidance for implementation Draft Manual expected 2 nd or 3 rd quarter 2007. Regulatory Guidance and Approvals Differences exist today. PBN Manual must lead to convergence across RNAV, RNP and enabling technologies Aircraft/Operator Approvals Today, different regulators have differing demands on airworthiness & manufacturer, and operator approval Differences confusing to operators and manufacturers

13 Worldwide Symposium on Performance of the Air Navigation System, Montreal, 29 March 2007 13 Value/Benefits to Users, ATC/Airports RNAV Departures/Arrivals Existing FMS and RNAV capabilities are resulting in operational improvements & savings i.e. time/fuel, ATC workload, etc RNP AR and APP Initial AR sites are seeing improved access (PSP, PDX, ZQN) as well as time/fuel savings. Air Transport operators seeking to leverage certified RNP capabilities of their fleets. Other aircraft and rotorcraft are waiting in line. Many are in a learning state. Widespread adoption of RNP for approach requires a broader and easier solution e.g. criteria to convert RNAV(GNSS) to RNP Navigation Infrastructure Evolution A consistent, safe, cost effective transition is necessary Benefits must be wide-spread and identifiable

14 Worldwide Symposium on Performance of the Air Navigation System, Montreal, 29 March 2007 14 Simpler Qualification and Approvals Aircraft Operational Qualification – So far AR only Achieved for 737, A320, Q400, but significant levels of post- certification airworthiness analysis and data required. 757/767, 777, A330, etc in progress. Challenges include approvals consistent with their certification, and reexamination of aircraft. Potential complications from current criteria that appears to preclude use of electronic map for lateral deviation, implication of required deviation display and format, implication of overlapping system safety assumptions. Military, regional jets, rotorcraft, etc aircraft to consider Operator Approvals – So far AR only Applicant process and packages are extensive, and subject to delays associated with a new review process. ANY CHANGE to software invalidates existing approval. Improvements needed.

15 Worldwide Symposium on Performance of the Air Navigation System, Montreal, 29 March 2007 15 Conclusions Performance Based Navigation is a journey Current RNP SAAAR operations and criteria are not at the level expected. It should be easier. Issues being raised require attention and evolution in processes, guidance material and a single set of regulatory criteria to effectively integrate new technology, RNP SAAAR, RNP, RNAV, and global operations. Early preparation and planning advised. The communication and approval processes need improvement. Need a breakthrough in implementation. Everybody needs to be involved. Resources are needed as we progress basic RNP, RNP APP, benefits, etc
