Air traffic management operations are becoming more dependent on communication and surveillance

capabilities and performances

Global Data Link Coverage

Safety promotion

• NAT PBCS Workshop– Task 4 of NAT PBCS Implementation Plan– Training and education - Safety communication– Exchange information and promote global harmonization

Overview – Session 1

• Global and regional ICAO and industry standards, recommended practices and guidance material– Annexes 6 & 11, Doc 4444 (PANS/ATM), Doc 9869,

GOLD– RTCA / EUROCAE Interoperability (INTEROP) and

Safety and Performance (SPR) standards

• Existing FANS 1/A and ATN B1 and future B2

Overview – Session 2

• Capacity and efficiency - Use of data link / mandates(NAT and EUR)

• Reduced separations predicated on communication and surveillance performance– 5-minute, 30 NM and 50 NM longitudinal separation– 25 NM and 30 NM lateral separation– ITP and CDP

• DARP and UPR• Transition to performance based navigation,

communication and surveillance

Overview – Session 3

• Approval requirements for ANSP and operator / aircraft equipment and capability

• Perspectives - ANSP (FAA), CSP (ARINC), SSP (Inmarsat), A/C mfgr (Airbus / Boeing), operator (Delta / IFALPA)

• Post-implementation monitoring (FAA / Airways New Zealand)

• Data link regional monitoring agencies (DLMA and CRO)

Discussion topics

• Amendments needed to ICAO Annexes, PANS, recommended practices and guidance material– Application and flight plan requirements (Doc 4444)– ATS provision (Annex 11)– Operational approvals (Annex 6)– Guidance material – Doc 9869

• Post implementation monitoring • Feedback to operators and other interested parties on

performance issues• Global coordination and consistent approach• Adoption of RCP in the EUR Region • Orderly transition to implement

Feedback

• Any follow-up?

• Was the workshop useful?

• Should there be another workshop and when?
