Long Term: Airlines Plan the allocation of their demand with Airports.
Very light (or no) coordination with CFMU = Network and Airport Slots not aligned

Short Term: Planning updates are not simultaneously shared among all partners
Lack of Common Traffic Situational Awareness
Little forward visibility

High risk of inconsistent planning among key partners

Local Collaborative Environment To ensure Local CSA

Network Operations Plan (NOP) contains Airport Operations Plan (AOP) segments
Any change on the Business Trajectory (ATC & Airport-AOP) updates the NOP

There are Local (Airport) and Global (Network) Collaborative Environments

Forward the visibility for both Network Manager & Airports

SESAR Concepts implementation in Airports Operations

Main Achievements
Integration of the Local Airport Operations Plan (AOP) in the Global Network Operations Plan (NOP) Supports Proactive Performance Management
- Communication of changes - Requires User Driven Prioritisation Process (UDPP)

A Rolling Airport Operations Plan building on the ACDM concept

Common shared data across all airport stakeholders (possible Airport SWIM environment) Airport stakeholders perform timely updates to the AOP under agreed Rules and Procedures

Airport participates in the management of Arrival Traffic

Business Case

European ATM Network: CFMU Case Study

Impact of Predictability on Traffic Situation Prediction
For predicting Traffic Situation beyond Two Hours, calculation is based on ground data for 90 % of aircraft
IF = 20 min (PRU) & Gnd. Speed = 360 knots: The uncertainty is 120 NM Improving Predictability to = 10 min (ACDM today): The uncertainty will be 60 NM With SESAR Target = 3 min: The uncertainty will be reduced to 18 NM
120 Nautical Miles

Huge Uncertainty Windows result in inaccurate Traffic Counts. (Airport CDM Network Impact Assessment EEC Note No. 10-009) Many more Aircraft predicted to cross a sector than actual Waste of available sector capacity

Business Case

AOP inclusion in NOP influence in ATM:

NOW:

Heavy Traffic bunching

With SESAR:
Integrating Airports into the ATM Network 10

Migrate Airport management from CTOT to CTA Airport actively participating in Arrival Management Common Network Situational Awareness to improve predictability Increased Predictability reduces traffic bunching effect
