PANEL DISCUSSION
ATM Global Interoperability & Harmonization: Operational and Safety Implications
Moderator
Ruby Sayyed Head of ATM Advocacy, IATA
Where do we stand today? Airlines are heavily investing in fleet and network
expansion and on-board avionics
By 2033, 40% of the fleet are expected to be operating in Asia-
Pacific and China
Double digit traffic growth
In Asia traffic is expected to increase by about 50% from 2012 to
2020
The principles guiding ATM regional initiatives are not all
fully aligned
Incompatibilities in technologies and requirements
Misalignment of implementation dates
3
What are the implications of divergence
and lack of interoperability? Unjustified costs for airline operators and misalignment
with manufacturers’ schedules
No return on investment for on-board equipage
Without interoperability, alignment and harmonization,
ATM programs will not deliver their promised objectives
4
How can we move forward?
Some key concepts we will discuss today;
Consistent and effective collaboration and consultation in the
planning and deployment stages
The concept of Most Capable Best Served
Working together and having a united front (one voice)
Operational requirements enabled by technology

Main issues
An Airbus aircraft takes off or lands every two seconds in the world.
Our aircraft have to be compliant with EU (EASA) rules for certification but also with all the requirements coming from each national authority concerning the flight in its own airspace.
We have to provide to our customers, the airlines, the best possible equipment on board to ensure safety and flight efficiency, whatever is the destination of the flight

Main objectives of Airbus on ATM Harmonization
Promote a better use of aircraft capabilities for a better flight efficiency
• Working with EUROCAE, RTCA and other manufacturers to promote common standards from the industry.
• Working with ICAO, FAA, EASA, etc, to get adoption and implementation of harmonized rules and recommendations.
Promote Harmonization and Standards for airborne equipage related to ATM
• Promote RNP, GLS procedures for a better flight efficiency
• Promote ADS-B out to reduce separations and save costs.
• Promote the use of new capabilities as ROPS-BTV, ITP, to improving operations
• Participation to SESAR, NEXTGEN and other regional programs.
• Participation to ICAO ASBU initiative
Contribute to the development of new operational concepts improving ATM performance and integrating both airborne and ground based equipment

The need to be customer oriented
Need for anticipation and coordination
• By designing the best possible aircraft
• By proactively contributing to efficient air transport operations
Our objective is to answer to airlines expectations
• ATM is just one part of the aircraft design and we have to give priority to our customers’ expectations
• We have to anticipate on future evolutions to integrate ATM requirements and deliver to our customers efficient solutions on due time
• Need to coordinate board and ground deployments
• Need to develop Most Capable Best Serve concept to give an immediate benefit to the airlines
Airlines are legitimate in asking for a quick return on their investment

Suggestions and recommendations
Encourage the use of the existing airborne equipage and of the existing standards proposed by the industry when developing ATM programs.
Enhance consultation with the Industry (Airlines, manufacturers, etc.) when defining new concepts and standards for ATM programs.
Encourage Industry to develop a common view on ATM modernization
Develop a strategic view on the future of ATM to ensure convergence and harmonization between the different programs with common standards.
Organize joint trials between different programs as SESAR and NEXTGEN to develop interoperable solutions.
Engage other regions of the world in programs as SESAR and NEXTGEN to develop harmonized solutions worldwide.
Be more focus on airlines expectations and adapt the services to the capabilities through the most capable best served concept.

September 26, 2014
The Chicago Air Route Traffic Control Center (ARTCC)
declared “Air Traffic Control (ATC) Zero” following criminal
destruction of major operational capabilities, resulting in
divesture of airspace.
Federal Aviation Administration
Background
Federal Aviation Administration
Background
• The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Administrator
called for review of all FAA operational contingency plans
and established requirements to improve ATC service
delivery during irregular operations, through use of both
current and future infrastructure and equipment.
• Specifically, the FAA Administrator identified a challenge
target objective to achieve 90 percent of normal operations
within 24 hours of an ATC Zero event.
Federal Aviation Administration
Background
FAA Administrator’s Target Levels of Efficiency
specifically require;
• The ability to safely return core 30 airports to 90%
operating capacity within 24 hours.
• The ability to return affected ARTCC or TRACON
airspace to 90% of normal operating capacity within 96
hours.
3 April 2015

Federal Aviation Administration
30 Day Assessment
• The Air Traffic Organization’s (ATO) Chief Operating
Officer (COO) convened a team to develop a strategy to
meet this objective.
• The collaborative team was representative of labor and
management, with the skills and experience required to
conduct the assessment.
• Operations
• Air Traffic (Air Traffic and System Operations)
• Technical Operations (CNS)
• Program Management
• Security
Federal Aviation Administration
30 Day Assessment
• An investigation was conducted after each of the three
significant ATC-ZERO (ZAU, C90, ZLA) events and a
Corrective Action Plan (CAP) was written to correct issues.
The solutions are presented in the form of “Mitigations”
• The ATO Officers Group combined the three individual CAPs
into one National CAP
• Update FAA Orders and Facility contingency plans to
accommodate revised strategies to improve NAS efficiency
and facility resilience
• The Temporary Operational Contingency Office (TOCO) was
created to manage the collective mitigations defined in the
National CAP
Federal Aviation Administration
30 Day Assessment
• Evaluated existing plans
• Defined new strategy • allows for divestment of airspace, and if needed, dispersing
personnel to support facilities
• Evaluated improvements over three capability
timeframes
• Contingency Operations: Now through the next 12 months
• Enhanced Contingency: 2016-2019
• Enhanced Continuity of Service: 2020 and beyond
• Identified gaps, opportunities and Rough Order
of Magnitude costs
Federal Aviation Administration
30 Day Assessment
Technical Assessment • Conducted technical assessment of new contingency plans for
supportability and viability, and developed cost estimates for
additional infrastructure needs.
• Resiliency Assessment • Conducted assessment of system resiliency within air traffic
control facilities and developed cost estimates for proposed
improvements.
• System Architecture
• Security
• Policy • The framing of longer-term policy and technological activities that
would enable enhanced continuity of service.
Federal Aviation Administration
TOCO
Temporary Operational Contingency Office
• Set up in response to the ZAU event
• National office in Atlanta, Georgia.
• Charter:
– Manage deliverables,
– Ensure execution/implementation of mitigations,
– Track and report activities.
Federal Aviation Administration
TOCO Scope
• Understanding of lessons learned from C90, ZLA and
ZAU ATC Zero incidents
• Assure all near term CAP mitigations are completed within
a year
• Assure all mid and long term CAP mitigations are
transitioned to the responsible office
• Assure all Safety Management System processes are
followed
• Provide recommendations to ATO’s Officers Group on
next steps and a gap analysis of requirements to move
facilities closer to efficiency targets
Federal Aviation Administration
Deliverables
• Corporate understanding of lessons learned from C90,
ZLA and ZAU ATC Zero incidents as well as limitations
of existing infrastructure and its many capabilities
• Identification of requirements to move facilities closer to
efficiency targets
• Assure all National CAP mitigations are completed
• Provide recommendations to leadership on next steps
Federal Aviation Administration
Future Actions
• Further Analysis Required to Support
Three-Year Opportunities • Assess and provide next steps for acceleration of select
NextGen capabilities
• 2020 & Beyond: Establishing the Long-
Term Commitment to Continuity of Service • Assess new capabilities to support enhanced continuity of
service concepts
