1 Federal Aviation Administration By: Dennis Mills, AFS-220 FAA Flight Standards Air Carrier Operations - New Technology OSWG First Quarter 2011 Date: January 19, 2011 ADS-B Operational Approvals (now and in the future)

2 2 Federal Aviation Administration OSWG First Quarter 2011 – ADS-B Overview What ADS-B is and isn’t Current OpSpec Future OpSpecs Current Applications Future Applications Ops Approval Process International Harmonization Part 129 Considerations

3 3 Federal Aviation Administration OSWG First Quarter 2011 – ADS-B ADS-B vs ADS-C Communications Contract between the Operators & A/C and the controller Data link info transmitted automatically from A/C to Controller – not Pilot Part of Fans 1/A data link/ CPDLC equipage Not Transponder based Surveillance application which transmits and receives such things as position, track G/S etc by data link at specific intervals Data delivered air to air, ground to air and ground to ground ADS-Broadcast (ADS-B) is an extended squitter message using a transponder protocol ADS-B : Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast ADS-C : Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Contract

4 4 Federal Aviation Administration OSWG First Quarter 2011 – ADS-B Introduction to ADS-B A utomatic –Periodically transmits information with no pilot or operator input required D ependent –Position and velocity vector are derived from the Global Positioning System (GPS) S urveillance - –A method of determining position of aircraft, vehicles, or other assets B roadcast –Transmitted information available to anyone with the appropriate receiving equipment

5 5 Federal Aviation Administration OSWG First Quarter 2011 – ADS-B Why ADS-B? Air-to-Air Improved Separation Standards Improved Low-Visibility Approaches Enhanced See and Avoid Enhanced Operations for En Route Air-to-Air Ground-to-Ground Improved Navigation on Taxiways Enhanced Controller Management of Surface Traffic Air-to-Ground Surveillance Coverage in Radar / Non-Radar Airspace Ground-to-Air & Self-Contained Weather and SSR Traffic to the Cockpit

6 6 Federal Aviation Administration OSWG First Quarter 2011 – ADS-B ADS-B OUT NAS Ops Approval? Not Required by the new Rule Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part §91.225, Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS B) OUT equipment and use §91.227, Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS B) OUT equipment performance requirements No Specialized Training Requirements for Operators, aircrew or dispatchers Necessary hardware must be installed by TC/STC Crew cannot monitor output – either it is on or off (Will be notified by ATC most likely?)

7 7 Federal Aviation Administration OSWG First Quarter 2011 – ADS-B AC 90-ADS-B (Spring 2011) Operational Approval is required only for certain ADS-B applications: Federal Aviation Administration 1.ADS-B OUT – Canadian Controlled Airspace - NRA ADS-B OUT – Off-shore Routes ADS-B IN – In Trail Procedures - ITP Numerous Future applications: Interval Management (IM), SURF, ATSA… …and many more in development

8 8 Federal Aviation Administration OSWG First Quarter 2011 – ADS-B Inspector Guidance/OpSpec Requirements? Available information for the applicant if desired Under construction and nearly ready-Spring 2011 Vetted at OpSpec Working Group (OSWG) - 2010 ADS-B OUT applications U.S. NAS – Presently no intent to require a formal authorization. More of a compliance requirement with Certification Standards and Continuing Airworthiness requirements like other avionic equipment. Non-Rule Airspace such as Gomex and possibly the WATRS area will require OpSpec due to specific Operational advantages and reduced separation without radar (NRA) Canadian Controlled Airspace

9 9 Federal Aviation Administration OSWG First Quarter 2011 – ADS-B Inspector Guidance/OpSpec Requirements (con’t) ADS-B IN applications - Require future Ops approval No rule in place to lay out the requirement for Operators Applications will require specific training, aircraft equipment and ICA requirements There will be operational benefit and thus additional requirements if Operator chooses to equip. Voluntary but highly likely to derive operational/cost benefit Meets expectation of “Best equipped, Best served”

10 10 Federal Aviation Administration OSWG First Quarter 2011 – ADS-B Advisory Circulars – One means of compliance –AC20-165 Airworthiness Approval of Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast (ADS-B) Out Systems, 5/21/2010, as amended –AC90-ADSB Operational approval of ADS-B, Spring 2011 Inspector Guidance – 8900.1, Inspector Handbook –Developed in conjunction with AC 90 AIM/AIP –General pilot information and guidance Standards and Guidance

11 11 Federal Aviation Administration OSWG First Quarter 2011 – ADS-B OpSpec/MSpec/LOA A353 Authorization Approval Process Certificate Holder / Operator completes application package and submits to local FAA field office POI reviews application for compliance with regulatory requirements Local FAA field office forwards application package to HQ through their Regional Office 220 NextGen Branch. HQ evaluates package-if acceptable Concurrence Memo HQ has quick turn around process POI issues the OpSpec

12 12 Federal Aviation Administration OSWG First Quarter 2011 – ADS-B WebOPSS Job Aid designed to assist POI with adding an ADS-B OUT/IN authorization(s) in WebOPSS for a specific aircraft or aircraft fleet type operated under FAR Part 91, 91K, 121, 125, 125M, or 135.
