4. FP6 New Instruments
FP6 introduces new instruments to carry out R&T activities:
Network of excellence (involvement of Research Centres)
Integrated Project (IP)
Specific Targeted Research Projects (STP)
Article 169: “ In implementing the multiannual framework programme the Community may make provision, in agreement with the Member States concerned, for participation in research and development programmes undertaken by several Member States, including participation in the structures created for the execution of those programmes “     

5. Principles guiding the design of the new instruments.
Simplification and streamlining
to minimise the overheads for all concerned whether applicant, contractor or the Commission
to speed up procedures, especially time-to-contract
Flexibility and adaptability
to enable instruments to be applicable throughout the priority themes
to enable projects to evolve (more flexibility to change internal organisation, execution plan, partnership, funding distribution, …)
Increased management autonomy
to eliminate unnecessary micromanagement
While preserving public accountability and protecting interests of the Community

6. FP6 Calls and budget FP6 Calls and budget
Aeronautics Budget (780 M€ ) = DGRTD 690 M€ +DGTREN 90 M€ . Of which 150 M€ for ATM

7. Vision 2020
Produced by the Group of Personalities (GoP) in January 2001
Protection of the environment, both on a local and global scale
Assurance of the highest safety levels
Provision of the required air transport system capacity
Provision of superior passenger comfort and service quality
Assurance of affordability and industrial competitiveness
