Recommended Best Practices for Commercial Operators
OPERATIONS IN AIRSPACE CLASS E IN GERMANY BELOW FL100 RECOMMENDED BEST PRACTICES FOR COMMERCIAL OPERATORS The following best practices have been developed by flight safety officers and experts to enhance the safety of operations in airspace Class E below FL100 to prevent collisions between controlled and uncontrolled aircraft in a mixed traffic environment. Recommendations for training departments and pilots • IMPROVE AIRSPACE AWARENESS Train pilots to be aware of shortfalls in the existing airspace structure – annual training and NOT only by bulletin using two components: o Generic briefing on airspace Class E in Germany o Dedicated airport briefing documents o Include risk and threats in unprotected airspace in individual departure and arrival briefing • OPERATING RECOMMENDATIONS o FLY DEFENSIVELY! o Maintain Minimum Clean Airspeed or as slow as reasonable o Request to use protected airspace – minimise time in airspace Class E and refuse shortcuts if necessary. Most standard departures and approaches/transitions will facilitate this. o Descend according to airspace structure on arrival. Steep/expedited climb through airspace Class E on departure. o Consider airspace structure for engine out procedures o Consider delaying take-off if conflict with other aircraft is anticipated • USE OF AUTOMATION IN AIRSPACE CLASS ECHO o Minimise visual approaches – they require additional attention and increase flight time in unprotected airspace o Maximise lookout capacity through use of automation (FMS/task sharing) • SEE AND AVOID o Maximise lookout

AIRLINE ALLIANCES by Paul Stephen Dempsey Director, Institute of Air & Space Law McGill University Copyright © 2008 by Paul Stephen Dempsey Before Alliances, there was Pan American World Airways . and Trans World Airlines. Before the mega- Alliances, there was interlining, facilitated by IATA Like dogs marking territory, airlines around the world are sniffing each other's tail fins looking for partners." Daniel Riordan “The hardest thing in working on an alliance is to coordinate the activities of people who have different instincts and a different language, and maybe worship slightly different travel gods, to get them to work together in a culture that allows them to respect each other’s habits and convictions, and yet work productively together in an environment in which you can’t specify everything in advance.” Michael E. Levine “Beware a pact with the devil.” Martin Shugrue Airline Motivations For Alliances • the desire to achieve greater economies of scale, scope, and density; • the desire to reduce costs by consolidating redundant operations; • the need to improve revenue by reducing the level of competition wherever possible as markets are liberalized; and • the desire to skirt around the nationality rules which prohibit multinational ownership and cabotage. Intercarrier Agreements · Ticketing-and-Baggage Agreements · Joint-Fare Agreements · Reciprocal Airport Agreements · Blocked Space Relationships · Computer Reservations Systems Joint Ventures · Joint Sales Offices and Telephone Centers · E-Commerce Joint Ventures · Frequent Flyer Program Alliances · Pooling Traffic & Revenue · Code-Sharing Code Sharing The term "code" refers to the identifier used in flight schedule, generally the 2-character IATA carrier designator code and flight number. Thus, XX123, flight 123 operated by the airline XX, might also be sold by airline YY as YY456 and by ZZ as ZZ9876.

Lufthansa Decommissions Aircraft, Predicts Recovery Will Take Years Airline Also Deploys Passenger Aircraft on Large Scale for Dedicated Cargo Transport
Lufthansa decommissions aircraft, predicts recovery will take years Airline also deploys passenger aircraft on large scale for dedicated cargo transport Eric Kulisch, Air Cargo Editor Tuesday, April 7, 2020 0 1,943 2 minutes read Lufthansa is retiring Airbus super-jumbo jets and other aircraft to right-size operations with demand. (Image: Flickr/Aero Icarus) Speculation that the demand destruction from the coronavirus will be long-lasting and result in a smaller airline industry after the pandemic is starting to become a reality. On Tuesday, Deutsche Lufthansa AG (CXE: LHA) announced a significant restructuring that includes a permanent reduction in capacity and the consolidation of several flight operations within the airline group. The company said the board of directors made the decisions because it expects global travel restrictions won’t be completely lifted for months and that it will take years until worldwide demand for air travel returns to levels before the coronavirus crisis. Vasu Raja, American Airlines’ senior vice president for network strategy, said in The Wall Street Journal that few people are making plans to travel in the next three to five months. The Lufthansa Group has already cut capacity by more than 90% and parked about 700 aircraft. Based on the estimate of a slow recovery, Lufthansa Airlines is decommissioning six Airbus A380 double-decker planes, seven A340-600s and five Boeing 747-400s. The carrier is also withdrawing 11 A320 single-aisle planes from short-haul operations. The six A380 aircraft were already scheduled to be sold back to Airbus in 2022. The decision to phase out the A340s and B747s was made because they burn more fuel and pollute more than more modern aircraft, Deutsche Lufthansa said.

EASA NPA 2016-12 EFB EFB Admin Remarks
EASA NPA 2016-12 EFB 1/3 EFB Admin Remarks From: Hans-Conrad Stamm (SWISS / OFI) in coordination with Lufthansa EFB Hamonisation Group representing EFB Administrators from AUA Austian Airlines, Brussels Airline, Eurowings/Germanwings, Lufthansa Passage, Lufthansa Cityline, Lufthansa Cargo, SWISS) Date: Dez 2016 Feedback from LH EFB Hamonisation Group & SWISS regarding proposed “EASA NPA 2016-12 Transposition of provisions on electronic flight bags from ICAO Annex 6” (RMT.0601 — 4.10.2016) Executive Summary of the NPA 2016-12 EFB The NPA is published to maintain a high level of safety with regard to the use of EFBs by ensuring a harmonised implementation of the current provisions of AMC 20-25. It includes a proposal for an operational approval for the use of EFB applications by commercial air transport (CAT) operators. General Remarks LX The proposed NPA 2016-12 has the goal to harmonize the implementation of the AMC 20-25 and to give EFB system providers, application developers, operators and regulators guidance how to implement an EFB solution. The 138 page NPA is very detailed and covers all relevant areas. It supports the basic principle that an EFB system should support the pilots and should support a safe operation. Nevertheless in some parts the guidance is very specific, restrictive and complex. This could lead to: - It will increase complexity, manpower needed and time to implement an EFB solution for system suppliers, operators and regulators. - It is questionable if a regulation this complex and specific can cope in all cases with technology innovations especially in the IT- and EFB-Area.

Airline Alliances
AIRLINE ALLIANCES by Paul Stephen Dempsey Director, Institute of Air & Space Law McGill University Copyright © 2011 by Paul Stephen Dempsey Open Skies • 1992 - the United States concluded the first second generation “open skies” agreement with the Netherlands. It allowed KLM and any other Dutch carrier to fly to any point in the United States, and allowed U.S. carriers to fly to any point in the Netherlands, a country about the size of West Virginia. The U.S. was ideologically wedded to open markets, so the imbalance in traffic rights was of no concern. Moreover, opening up the Netherlands would allow KLM to drain traffic from surrounding airline networks, which would eventually encourage the surrounding airlines to ask their governments to sign “open skies” bilateral with the United States. • 1993 - the U.S. conferred antitrust immunity on the Wings Alliance between Northwest Airlines and KLM. The encirclement policy began to corrode resistance to liberalization as the sixth freedom traffic drain began to grow; soon Lufthansa, then Air France, were asking their governments to sign liberal bilaterals. • 1996 - Germany fell, followed by the Czech Republic, Italy, Portugal, the Slovak Republic, Malta, Poland. • 2001- the United States had concluded bilateral open skies agreements with 52 nations and concluded its first multilateral open skies agreement with Brunei, Chile, New Zealand and Singapore. • 2002 – France fell. • 2007 - The U.S. and E.U. concluded a multilateral “open skies” traffic agreement that liberalized everything but foreign ownership and cabotage. • 2011 – cumulatively, the U.S. had signed “open skies” bilaterals with more than100 States. Multilateral and Bilateral Air Transport Agreements • Section 5 of the Transit Agreement, and Section 6 of the Transport Agreement, provide: “Each contracting State reserves the right to withhold or revoke a certificate or permit to an air transport enterprise of another State in any case where it is not satisfied that substantial ownership and effective control are vested in nationals of a contracting State .

Lufthansa Cityline Celebrates 25 Years of Bombardier CRJ Series Operations
Munich, October 19, 2017 Lufthansa CityLine celebrates 25 years of Bombardier CRJ series operations On October 19, 1992, Lufthansa CityLine received the world’s first Canadair Regional Jet Successful development partnership with Bombardier Anniversary logo on a CRJ900 in the skies from today October 19, 1992, was a special day for Lufthansa CityLine: It was the world’s first airline to receive a Canadair Regional Jet (CRJ). Lufthansa was a major driving force for the start of the series, and to this day, 35 CRJs of the latest generation form a crucial part of the fleet of Lufthansa CityLine. From today onwards, a CRJ900 will therefore carry a large- scale special logo with the anniversary message across Europe. The concept of a twin-engine regional aircraft, which combines the flexibility of smaller, usually propeller-driven engines with the comfort and travel speed of jet engines, was revolutionary at the time. Over the past two and a half decades, the CRJ underwent continuous further development. Today’s CRJ900 is hardly comparable to the first model. Based on the original 50-seater CRJ100 and CRJ200, the CRJ700 evolved. Today’s CRJ900 is a veritable medium-haul aircraft with around 90 seats that serves European destinations from Ancona to Zagreb at Lufthansa CityLine. Many core elements have remained the same, however: Passenger comfort, its specific seating capacity which makes the connection to regional destinations economically viable, short turnaround times and its agility in flight, which is not only a joy for pilots. „Back in 1992, nobody would have dared to expect the CRJ series to become the success story we know today.
