SESAR State of the Art – Civil RPAS Insertion in the European Aviation System 3 rd Workshop on European Unmanned Maritime Systems FÓRUM DO MAR Porto, May 29 th 2014

SESAR is Approaching the Deployment Phase Definition phase Create European ATM Master Plan Deployment Phase Implement results of development to meet performance targets Development Phase Develop new standards, operational procedures and technologies 2013… ……..

 RPAS is generating a new service sector  Development of a seamless regulatory framework and enhance the coordination of various on-going R&D initiatives  A broad, safe and swift RPAS integration into the aviation system requires an enhanced coordination between the numerous actors and the different activities involved (regulatory, R&D and others)  Phased RPAS insertion in airspace which will subsequently be alleviated as soon as technology and regulation progress Rationale 3

AIRICA - ATM Innovative RPAS Integration for Coastguard Applications MAIN OBJECTIVE: Demonstrate the application of Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems for coastguard activities, in non-segregated airspace. The envisioned coastguard tasks will involve flights Beyond Visual Line Of Sight. This requires the aircraft to be equipped with appropriate sensors and on-board Detect and Avoid capabilities, which will be implemented and tested. VALIDATION APPROACH Flight trials on an optionally piloted Gyro-copter. PROJECT ENDS: October 2015 PARTNERS: LOCATION: Netherlands Kick-off meeting Page 4

 Refine the essential R&D activities for the integration in the EU Aviation System in the context of the Single European Sky initiative, as of 2016 and beyond  Identify globally interoperable and harmonised ATM requirements and enablers to meet the performance requirements  Produce a R&D and Validation programme - including planning, costs and priorities, as required by the different identified ATM requirements and enablers  Establish a high level implementation timeline, including costs and priorities  Provide material supporting the alignment of the legislative, financial and regulatory frameworks required for the deployment, including incentive mechanisms Necessity of the RPAS Definition Phase 5

Conclusion  Ability to implement dual-use and synergy in Civ/Mil RPAS Research in particular in terms of airspace integration is not dormant, potential or eventual…  It is actual and proven capability to stimulate…  Need to promptly move forward to develop solid dual-use and synergy-led mechanisms  Inaction could be adverse in terms of:  duplication of efforts, time, costs…
