Users’ Perspective of PBN Achieving Improvements Joël Morin Head, ATM Harmonization

What is IATA? The International Air Transport Association (IATA) is the not-for-profit trade association of airlines. Our 250 members generate 85% of the total air traffic. © IATA (2015)

Airlines… Asia connects to the World … move people … move goods … drive economies … have very small margins Asia connects to the World © IATA (2015)

Airlines’ Need Minimum Cost Predictability for Network Operation: aircraft cabin crew air crew Passengers Cargo System level Efficiency © IATA (2015)

ASBUs – Enablers to Operational Improvement Airlines do not need or want you to implement ASBUs [including PBN]… UNLESS the results … have achievable operational benefits … that deliver tangible cost offsets © IATA (2015)

PBN Solutions Your designs’ benefits must equal or outweigh their costs Costs provider user Benefits society © IATA (2015)

PBN Procedures Must Be better than the conventional Consider fleet capabilities Deliver benefits: Safety Environment Capacity Efficiency © IATA (2015)

GANP (2013) states: … Although the GANP has a worldwide perspective, it is not intended that all Block Modules are required to be applied in every State and region. Many of the Block Upgrade Modules contained in the GANP are specialized packages that should be applied only where the specific operational requirement exists or corresponding benefits can be realistically projected. © IATA (2015)

Some examples… © IATA (2015)

Atlanta - Toronto Direct route 645 NM great circle Unreasonable to fly great circle between 2 busy airports © IATA (2015)

Departure… Need ‘structure’ … SID … to manage departures and arrivals interaction Then allow UPR © IATA (2015)

Arrival… Need ‘structure’ … STAR … to manage arrivals Start the STAR where you need it for: capacity + efficiency © IATA (2015)

Real life 27 May 15 Only 2 waypoints DCT User’s choice Between SID and STAR © IATA (2015)

Efficient Departures Designed to get the traffic on course as soon as possible Conflictions from Arrivals eliminated through design Uses aircraft nav capabilities (PBN) © IATA (2015)

Efficient Arrivals © IATA (2015)

STAR Links to Approach

Multiple Scenarios

STAR from North East – Landing East

STAR from Northwest

In Asia… There is a need to reduce the efficiency and capacity impact of small FIRs Initiatives such as the Asia Pacific Seamless ATM Plan provide the opportunity to provide more efficient operations Flexible Use of Airspace is also seen as an important aspect of PBN implementations – there is a definite need for civil and military authorities to collaborate with airspace users to improve efficient use of airspace. © IATA (2015)
