It provides for a consolidated European network view of the evolution of the air traffic and facilitates the planning of the service in the recovery phase by ANSPs and airports to match expected traffic demand in a safe, efficient and coordinated manner. The European NOP 2020 Recovery Plan is developed by EUROCONTROL NM in cooperation with the operational stakeholders ensuring a rolling outlook, published on the NM Network Operations Portal and updated weekly. Outlook 24 August – 04 October 2020 Traffic outlook – Based on the assumption that favourable conditions for international travel in Europe are maintained and that the airlines continue operating the currently planned summer schedules, the network traffic will continue to maintain a limited increase in August. As from September, another step up of traffic is expected, albeit relatively minor in comparison to the previous leaps of traffic observed during the season. September traffic is currently expected to have some peak days with approximately 21000 flights. This would represent in average, by the end of August, 55% of the traffic during the similar period in 2019 and up to 60% in September. Despite a continued growth, this new traffic outlook for September is lower than the ones presented in previous weeks as it reflects the changes in schedules resulting from the various new state restrictions. This traffic outlook remains highly dependent on the evolution of State restrictions - the latest changes might not be fully reflected in the airline schedules and airport slots and might lead to ad-hoc cancellations, but the general trend remains positive. Enroute capacity outlook – All the actions proposed for individual ANSPs in the previous editions of the NOP 2020 Recovery Plan have been implemented. While no en-route capacity issues are expected, some elementary sectors might start being saturated for short periods. Those situations can be handled tactically with no need for ATFM restrictions. More sectors might need to be open flexibly during peak hours or opening hours should be extended. Some ANSPs should plan to open their currently indicated maximum sector opening schemes and foresee a 10% buffer in the traffic outlook to avoid sudden capacity problems and weather issues. Airport outlook – The number of long term parked aircraft remains high. Regional airports indicated high passenger numbers during first wave, potentially compounded by lack of gates. No other significant airport airside capacity issues are reported. Airports are matching traffic demand. Passenger terminal COVID measures are in place and throughput should be monitored closely in relation to turnaround, as traffic increases. Airports estimate that turn around times for aircraft in a 100–200 passenger range may increase by 15-30 minutes, with larger aircraft up to 45 minutes or more when traffic will further increase. Reported delay causes show that, despite a massive reduction of the average departure delay per flight, delay related to governmental causes (Mandatory Security, Immigration, Customs and Health) increased by a factor of 10. Green aviation measures - NM, together with the operational stakeholders, relaxed up to 1200 RAD measures. This generated distance flown savings amounting to 26000 NM per day. Safety –ANSPs have taken safety measures aligned with the common work done with NM i.e. the Safety Argument. The Safety Argument assists ANSPs to return to safe and resilient normal operations. It covers three main elements of the ANSP’s functional system - people, procedures and equipment, including: staff competence, training and medical fitness; equipment configuration and certificates for use; changes to procedures introduced during the crisis period, etc. Expected Evolutions in States - In many States restrictions have been extended or reinstated. Lack of harmonised approach hamperred a coordinated recovery and might be mitigated by adhering to EC principles related to restrictions to free movement linked to COVID-19, stressing, i.a. that border/travel restrictions should be removed in the internal market, and sanitary measures such as social distancing and other actions recommended by ECDC should be the main basis to tackle COVID-19 spreading.

OBSERVING ON-DEMAND AIRCREW TRANSITIONING FROM PAPER TO ELECTRONIC FLIGHT BAGS: THE IMPACT ON WORKLOAD Charla L. Long, Ph.D. Federal Aviation Administration Oklahoma City, OK Kevin M. Gildea, Ph.D. Federal Aviation Administration Oklahoma City, OK The introduction of electronic flight bags (EFBs) for flight crew use has reduced the overall workload, except in some situations if not designed properly or employed effectively. Researchers from the Civil Aerospace Medical Institute (CAMI) undertook an observational study combined with crew interviews to assess overall flight crew operations including flight demands, procedures, and the methods the crews used to integrate EFBs into all aspects of their flights from preflight planning to postflight debrief. The researchers also examined the EFB applications (apps) themselves for general usability and developed some recommendations for ways EFB use in operations could be improved.

  • RCED-91-152 Meeting the Aviation Challenges of the 1990S
    144321I I Preface In the past, we have reported on a wide variety of complex and contro- versial aviation issues, including the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) modernization of the nation’s air traffic control system, the training needs of air traffic controllers and the staffing needs of that work force, FAA'S oversight of aviation safety, improvements in airport security, aircraft noise, and airline competition. Although the Congress, the Department of Transportation (nor), and FAA have taken positive actions on these issues, some will remain problematic. At the same time, new problems will develop to challenge the effectiveness of the nation’s aviation system. To better understand and deal with the long-standing aviation issues and to examine emerging issues, we convened a conference on November 29 and 30,199O. The conference brought together 23 leading aviation experts from the Congress, the administration, the aviation industry, and academia to provide their perspectives on the problems facing the aviation community. To help the speakers frame these issues, in advance of the conference we suggested general topics for them to discuss, including (1) FAA'S organization and management, (2) airspace management and air traffic control, (3) aviation safety, (4) airport capacity and security, and (5) airline competition and consumer protec- tion. The conference speakers not only brought new understanding to these subjects, but also raised major points for the Congress, DOI', and FAA to consider when addressing both long-standing and new problems facing the aviation system. Consequently, we are issuing this report to make the results of the conference and the speakers’ presentations available to a larger audience.

  • FAA ASIAS Final Report
    FAA Has Made Progress in Implementing ASIAS, but Work Remains To Better Predict, Prioritize, and Communicate Safety Risks Report No. AV2021022 March 10, 2021 FAA Has Made Progress in Implementing ASIAS, but Work Remains To Better Predict, Prioritize, and Communicate Safety Risks Mandated by the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2018 Federal Aviation Administration | AV2021022 | March 10, 2021 What We Looked At To enhance safety, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the aviation industry use data to proactively detect risks and implement mitigation strategies before accidents and incidents occur. Since 2007, FAA’s Aviation Safety Information Analysis and Sharing (ASIAS) program has drawn together a wide variety of safety data and information across Government and industry to identify emerging, systemic safety issues. In 2013, we reported that FAA had made progress implementing ASIAS, but the system lacked advanced capabilities, and aviation safety inspectors’ access to ASIAS confidential data remained limited. The FAA Reauthorization Act of 2018 directed our office to perform a follow-up review to assess FAA’s progress in improving ASIAS. Our objectives were to assess FAA’s (1) progress with implementing ASIAS and plans to improve the system, including its predictive capabilities, and (2) efforts to more widely disseminate results of ASIAS data analyses. What We Found FAA has made progress in implementing ASIAS since our 2013 review, but work remains to improve the program. For example, by September 2020, ASIAS grew to include data from 41 airlines, which according to FAA represents 99 percent of air carrier operations. However, FAA has not yet established a robust process for prioritizing analysis requests.
