This presentation provides an overview of the role of air traffic management in Europe, the challenges of future growth, and the Single European Sky initiative. It discusses how the SESAR program is developing new air traffic management technologies and procedures through a public-private partnership to enable more efficient airspace usage and meet rising demand while improving safety and environmental performance. The presentation outlines SESAR's goals and organization, as well as its progress in developing and validating new concepts of operations through research projects across Europe.

4. ROLE OF AIR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT IN EUROPE Page

5. Air Traffic Management is a set of services aiming primarily at ensuring the safety of the flights Page

6. Those services are provided by various ATM systems (people, process, technology) that separate aircraft, prevent collisions, organise and expedite the flows of traffic, and provide information. Communication Separation Management Navigation Collision avoidance Routing Sequencing and merging Surveillance Information Management Guidance Page

7. In Europe those services are provided by more than 30 Providers, employing about 20000 controllers in 80 Control Centers, on 500 Airports, and managing daily 30000 flights Communication Separation Management Navigation Collision avoidance Routing Sequencing and merging Surveillance Information Management Guidance Page

12. THE CHALLENGE OF GROWTH

13. THE AIR TRANSPORT GROWING DEMAND By 2030 Air Traffic will double in Europe CHALLENGES Page PEOPLE CARGO RESSOURCES & REGULATION ECONOMY DEMAND ACTUAL FLIGHTS

14. THE “DO NOTHING” SCENARIO Negative impact on SAFETY Page 11% airlines demand will not be accommodated Flights cancellation & missed connection CO 2 emission increase Jeopardising the Airlines productivity gains

15. SOCIETAL NEEDS SAFETY: Improvements linked to growth “ No trade-off with Safety, no accident” ENVIRONMENT: Growth must be green “ Air transport’s contribution to 3% of CO2 emissions” CAPACITY: Air Traffic to double by 2030 “ The right to fly in modern societies” “ Air transport contributes to 2-3% of the GDP” ECONOMICS: Cost reduction “ ATM costs represent 8-10% of airlines direct operating costs” “ The cost of ATM per flight remains steady while traffic increases” “ Close to 70% of Service Provider costs is manpower” Page

17. The European answer: SINGLE EUROPEAN SKY Page

20. THE AMBITIOUS SESAR GOALS Performance Based approach meeting Society’s Goals Goals of the SESAR Programme Page Save 8 to 14 minutes, 300 to 500 kg of fuel and 945 to 1575 kg of CO 2 on average per flight Enabling EU skies to handle 3 times more traffic Improving safety by a factor of 10 Reducing the environmental impact per flight by 10% Cutting ATM costs by 50%

21. A PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP Page

22. UNIQUE PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP Page Members New associate partners since July 2010

30. OUR VISION “ By 2012 we have created the change in European ATM that demonstrates our ability to deliver benefits to the Air Transport community” Page

40. SESAR & ENVIRONMENT

46. THE “DO NOTHING” SCENARIO Any trade-off with the above would have a potential negative impact on SAFETY Page Flight delays beyond 30 minutes/flight in western Europe = flights cancellation & missed connection 11% of total airlines demand would not be accommodated at all CO 2 emission per flight would increase due to longer routes and flight level constraints The relative proportion of ATM cost per flight would increase , jeopardising the Airlines productivity gains

47. THE AIR TRANSPORT GROWING DEMAND By 2030 Air Traffic will double in Europe 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 2010 2020 2030 Flights in Europe (Million) Actual Traffic Long-Term Trend Challenge Page 0 2 4 6 8 10
