LSSIP Year 2015 Switzerland Released Issue FOREWORD By Adriaan Heerbaart Director of the Pan European Single Sky Directorate EUROCONTROL Agency January 2016

Dear colleagues, The Local Single Sky ImPlementation (LSSIP) documents are the expression of commitment of civil and military National Organisations (Regulators and National Supervisory Authorities), Service Providers and Operators, towards the implementation of the European ATM Master Plan. They provide a comprehensive view, for the benefit of the ATM community at large, of how ECAC States and stakeholders concerned are progressing in planning and deploying the mature elements of the European ATM Master Plan, as identified in its Level 3, namely the European Single Sky ImPlementation (ESSIP) Plan. The ESSIP/LSSIP is a well-established and mature mechanism, with a long history dating back more than 20 years ago, originally named the Convergence & Implementation Programme (CIP), providing a stable platform for implementation planning, monitoring and reporting while continuously adapting to the changing environment. Thanks to the uninterrupted enhancement in the reliability and quality of information provided by national stakeholders, for the third year in a row the LSSIP documents and tools have been used as a support to the Performance Review Body (for CAPital EXpenditure - CAPEX - analysis) and recently also by ICAO for reporting on the deployment of the Aviation System Block Upgrade (ASBU) Modules in the European ICAO/EUR Region’s States, as part of their Global Air Navigation Plan. In addition, the current LSSIP 2015 documents will be used as a platform for collecting information on Military ATM on behalf of EDA, NATO and the EUROCONTROL Military Division. It is also the third year that the LSSIP Expert Group is established and has provided an invaluable support to DPS/PEPR in a number of crucial areas, i.e. the LSSIP process improvements, upgrade of IT tools and LSSIP Database, enhancement of the methodology on ESSIP Objectives progress determination, and in particular advising DPS/PEPR how to address the concerns surrounding any potential European multiple reporting. The need for coordination and cooperation between DPS/PEPR and the SESAR Deployment Manager (SDM) has been recognised and addressed to the AAB 12 Meeting in June 2015, which noted the ongoing actions to find a common way to optimise reporting by relevant stakeholders, to maximise efficiency and avoid unnecessary duplications of work. Furthermore, the AAB noted the initiation of the adaptation of the LSSIP process and deliverables in terms of implementation progress, signature and overall responsibility of the LSSIP and advised the Agency to pursue its efforts towards minimising the impact of this adaptation on all concerned actors. The complementarity with the SDM process and the adaptation of the LSSIP process and deliverables were on the Agenda of the LSSIP 2015 Take-off meeting, 19-20 October, and its outcome will now provide a solid base for establishing a work plan to address the recommendations stemming from AAB 12, with the support of the LSSIP Expert Group. I would like again to thank you for the substantial effort spent on your contribution to this LSSIP document. I see this as a proof of your commitment to the principles of transparency and partnership, benefiting the entire ATM community.

Executive Summary

National ATM Context

Civil Aviation in Switzerland is the responsibility of the Federal Department for the Environment, Transport, Energy and Communications (DETEC).

The Federal Office of Civil Aviation (FOCA) – Safety Division - Infrastructure is the regulatory body charged by the Swiss Confederation to supervise ATM safety oversight within Swiss airspace. It is also the nominated NSA.

The integrated civil-military ANSP, Skyguide, provides services to both OAT and GAT traffic, in Swiss airspace and in adjacent airspace in neighbouring countries that has been delegated to its control, from Geneva and Zurich ACCs. Skyguide also provides services at the two national airports (Geneva and Zurich airports), as well as at the regional airports and at primarily military or joint civil-military aerodromes.

Technical investigations following accidents and/or incidents are carried out by the Swiss Transportation Safety Investigation Board (STSB) integrated into DETEC.

The Military Aviation Authority in Switzerland is assigned to the Commander in Chief of the Air Force. He deputises the Swiss Military Aviation Regulation (REMIL) with the respective tasks.

Switzerland is member state of the FABEC together with Belgium, France, Germany, Luxembourg and The Netherlands.

ESSIP Objective Implementation

The implementation of the ESSIP objectives is progressing on schedule in Switzerland. Most of the objectives are completed, partially completed or planned.

Out of the 32 ESSIP objectives applicable to Switzerland, 26 are completed or partly completed, six are planned, two (ITY-AGVCS2, ATC02.5) of the latter being ‘planned to be late’, the corresponding implementation planning showing difficulties to meet the target date.

On the 9 and 7 ESSIP objectives that are airport-related for respectively Zürich and Geneva operational environments, 13 are completed, partly completed or planned in both Zürich and Geneva airports, one (ATC07.1 - AMAN) being late to be implemented in and another one (AOP10 – Time Base Separation) not yet being planned

LSSIP Year 2015 Switzerland 4 Released Issue Introduction

The Local Single Sky ImPlementation documents (LSSIPs), as an integral part of the ESSIP/LSSIP mechanism, constitute a short/medium term implementation plan containing ECAC States’ actions to achieve the Implementation Objectives as set out by the ESSIP and to improve the performance of their national ATM System. The LSSIP document – Year 2015 describes the situation in the State at the end of December 2015.

The LSSIP documents are structured into 6 chapters to better differentiate the Stakeholder(s) accountable for the information contained in each of them:

 Chapter 1 provides an overview of the ATM institutional arrangements within the State, the membership of the State in various international organizations, the organizational structure of the main ATM players - civil and military - and their responsibilities under the national legislation. In addition, an overview of the Airspace Organization and Classification, the ATC Units, the ATM systems operated by the main ANSP are also provided in this chapter.

 Chapter 2 provides a comprehensive picture of the situation of Air Traffic, Capacity and ATFM Delay per each ACC in the State. It shows the evolution of Air Traffic and Delay in the last five years and the forecast for the next five years. It gives also the achieved performance in terms of delay during the summer season period and the planned projects assumed to offer the required capacity which will match the foreseen traffic increase and keep the delay at the agreed performance level;

 Chapter 3 provides a set of recommendations extracted from the ESSIP Report which are relevant to the state/stakeholders concerned. The state reports how they have handled those recommendations and the actions taken during the year to address the concerns expressed by those recommendations;

 Chapter 4 provides a set of the main ATM national projects which contribute directly to the implementation of the ATM MP OIs and/or Enablers and ESSIP related Objectives. The description, timescale, progress made and expected contribution to the ATM Key Performance Areas are provided by the states per each project included in this chapter;

 Chapter 5 deals with the ATM Regional Coordination. It provides an overview of the FAB cooperation and Projects and also all other regional initiatives and Projects which are out of the FAB scope. The content of this chapter generally is developed and agreed in close cooperation between the states concerned;

 Chapter 6 contains high-level information on progress and plans of each ESSIP Objective. The information for each ESSIP Objective is presented in boxes giving a summary of the progress and plans of implementation for each Stakeholder. The conventions used are presented at the beginning of the section.

Note: Chapter 6 is completed with a separate document called LSSIP Level 2. This document consists of a set of tables organised in line with the list of ESSIP Objectives. Each table contains all the actions planned by the four national stakeholders to achieve their respective Stakeholder Lines of Action (SLoAs) as established in the ESSIP.

Note: The information contained in Chapter 6 is deemed sufficient to satisfy State reporting requirements towards ICAO in relation to ASBU (Aviation System Block Upgrades) monitoring.

LSSIP Year 2015 Switzerland 23 Released Issue Chapter 3 - ESSIP Report recommendations

Recommendations issued from the ESSIP Report for 2014 applicable to Switzerland for all items that require corrective actions and improvements.

Local Stakeholders that declared delays in implementation of Local FCM01, AOP03, ENV01, ITY-ADQ and COM10 to take corrective REC-2014-2 Stakeholders measures to reduce the implementation delays. Corrective actions taken: YES Description: ITY-ADQ  A proposed legal framework is in formal consultation within Switzerland and expected to be endorsed in 2017.  CH stkhs are pro-actively supporting the FOCA to achieve the implementation of ADQ in Switzerland and undertook corrective measures to keep the implementation foreseeable delay as low as possible.  For instance : o Skyguide AIM/services has grouped all activities for the implementation of ADQ into its Aeronautical Data Management Services Programme which is being monitored by the AIM Management and its implementation progress is regularly reported to FOCA. o Zurich Airport’s ADQ project team is essentially engaged in the work for the establishment of the national DCS and is working with other stakeholders in Switzerland towards full implementation of ADQ. The work on the ADQ Implementation is ongoing, however under consideration of the needed adoptions on the national legal framework and the complexity of the ADQ implementation processes ZRH (Zürich) Airport expects significant delay on implementation timeframe. o Geneva Airport is participating actively in the Swiss collaborative ADQ implementation plan and will fill its role as a data originator in line with the ADQ and national requirements according the national implementation timeframe.  CH stkhs are continuously progressing with the implementation of those elements of ADQ (e.g. in 2015 ITY-ADQ-ASP-03 has been completed) for which they are currently responsible ENV01  Skyguide enables Basic CDAs in Zürich and Geneva TMAs. Skyguide also participates to the SESAR Optimized Descent Profile project and through FABEC to the Task Force initiated by the SJU and led by Eurocontrol to clarify the CDO definition AOP12  The deployment of an Airport Safety Net tool is now planned with the on-going ARSI project deployment. COM10  COM10 is set to 'partly completed' because COM10-ASP03 (Extended ATSMHS) can't be fulfilled since Security aspects are not yet define for Extended ATSMHS. A re-evaluation of the SLoA timeline is needed. FCM01  FCM01 is set to 'partly completed' because ASP07 (Inform NM of aircraft holding for ATFM purposes) can't be fulfilled, Skyguide is awaiting from the NM a technical solution to transfer the data from the Skyguide system to the NM platform via B2B services. It needs to be noted that a vast majority of the ANSPs have set a 'not applicable' status to the SloA, often arguing on the absence of need for such functionality or the lack of interface with the NM. A re-evaluation of the operational need for this SLoA should be done.

LSSIP Year 2015 Switzerland 24 Released Issue REC-2014-06 The ANSPs within a FAB should coordinate their system renewal (equal to REC- and capability evolution more closely in order to deliver larger FAB ANSPs 2013-15) scale performance improvements to customers. Corrective actions taken: YES Description: The “FABEC ANSP Strategic Agenda”, contains, amongst others, all agreed planned and ongoing FABEC activities. Based on this Strategic Agenda the FABEC 5-Year-Work-Plan (5YWP) detailing all the activities, the time schedule and the required budget is developed. Both the Strategic Agenda and the 5YWP are revised twice a year. Besides, the OPS and TECH domains have jointly developed the FABEC roadmap containing the FABEC projects/activities and the ANSP local studies/projects that have a direct/indirect impact on the FABEC project implementation timeframe. This roadmap is also revised twice a year. In this way, it is made sure that an agreed ANSP work plan and roadmap is available, including the main system renewals. Within FABEC, dedicated Standing Committees address all operational, technical and SESAR matters and make sure that proper coordination is done among FABEC ANSPs to ensure proper interoperability between stakeholders. Even if common procurement is investigated, ANSPs should not be constrained on the “how” to implement functionalities and reach the performance objectives.

5.1 FAB Co-ordination FAB Europe Central (FABEC) consists of the following states: Belgium, France, Germany, Luxemburg, the Netherlands and Switzerland. The FABEC Feasibility Phase (2006-2008) led to the conclusion that FABEC is feasible. The Implementation Phase (2008-2013) demonstrated that the FABEC structure was compliant with SES regulations. After the ratification of the FABEC Treaty by all FABEC States, FABEC formally entered into force on the 1st of June 2013. This means that FABEC is now operational. FABEC intends to deliver on the goals set by SES II and as laid down in the FABEC Performance Plan.

Project Name: Airspace Design South-East Project Code: AD SE Organisation(s)  ANA LUX  Belgocontrol  DFS  DSNA  MUAC  Skyguide  Military partners of: B, CH, D, F and NL Description/Scope/Objectives The scope of the South East airspace project consists of 2 main airspace changes: 1. EUC22 Establish a new Cross Border Area (CBA) EUC22 for use by the French, German and United States Air Forces. This EUC 22 will increase the amount of airspace available for civilian use in the LUX area. This additional airspace will allow for optimisation of the civil route network (SWAP) and will assist the various Airspace Projects around the LUX area to achieve their performance targets. A stepwise approach was chosen for the implementation of the EUC22. 2. SWAP In the current situation, the flows of traffic on UN852 and UN853 cross twice, once in Brussels UIR at the DIK waypoint, and again to the north of Geneva. The SWAP concept intends to remove this dual crossing to improve safety and increase the capacity of the network by:  De-conflicting upper air routes UN852 and UN853 by swapping the direction of the traffic flows  Creating duplicate parallel routes to allow for segregation of over flights from climbing and descending flights The volume, boundaries and internal partitions of the former CBA25 (French-Swiss Cross border Area) have been redefined in order to create the EUC25 in March 2015 to ensure sufficient civil airspace for the new Geneva SIDs & STARs that will be implemented to join the SWAP network.

Schedule/Implementation planning To facilitate the implementation, the project has been divided into three phases: Phase 1 EUC25 Phase 2 SWAP and new EUC22 step 1 Phase 3 FULL EUC22

As the project is now “suspended” the implementation planning is To Be Defined.

Status Phase 1 was successfully implemented in March 2015. Phase 2: Significant operational and technical concerns were raised during training sessions using large scale simulations; these concerns were considered as too important for an implementation in March 2016. As a result, in December 2015 the project has been “suspended”.

Airspace Design Project Name: Project Code: AD CBALCW CBA Land/Central West Organisation(s)  DFS  LVNL  MUAC  Military partners of: D and NL Description/Scope/Objectives The objective of the CBA Land/Central West project is to design and implement an optimised ATS structure of the FABEC Central West area and of the North area which also includes a CBA Land. Based on known constraints in current airspace design, the objectives of the project are to:  Release military airspace in the south of the Netherlands, to create increased civil capacity and more direct civil routes for the hub airports London, Paris, Frankfurt and Amsterdam.  To compensate the military airspace users, to implement a larger consolidated Cross-border exercise area to accommodate legacy as well as fifth generation fighter training operations.

Schedule/Implementation planning In the original work planning two implementation steps were foreseen: Step 1 This step implements the new and changed sectorisation and ATS route structures related to the Northern area and the core area of CBA Land military cross-border area over Northern Netherlands and Germany. The implementation also requires improved ASM arrangements and initial GAT route network improvements in the southern part and it will also implement the required cross-border ATM legislation, rules and procedures. Step 2 This step completes the full implementation of CBA Land/Central West project. It will implement the restructuring of the airspace structure in the southern part and allow full release of a MIL training area (TRA12) in the South- East of the Netherlands and the implementation of the 4th IAF for Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, resulting in direct routings in the lower and upper airspace. At the same time the end state of the CBA will be implemented.

As the project is now “suspended” the implementation planning is TBD. Status The airspace and route design has been developed and successfully validated. In October 2015 the project has been “suspended”.

Project Name: FABEC ATFCM/ASM Project Project Code: FAAP Organisation(s)  Belgocontrol  DFS  DSNA  LVNL  MUAC  Skyguide  Military partners of: BE, DE, FR and NL Description/Scope/Objectives The aim of this project is to develop ASM solutions, addressing both civil and military airspace user’s needs. All AMC responsibilities are remaining as they currently are but AMCs should use interoperable tools to enhance data exchange/sharing and coordination between stakeholders. A stepped approach will give sufficient time to take advantage of future achievements of on-going FUA related activities (e.g. FUA harmonization, Booking Principles and Priority Rules (D7.1)) and to acquire the necessary confidence in and the appropriate knowledge of working methods between stakeholders. Furthermore, DFS and DSNA joined in a bilateral initiative (BILINI) to support FAAP developments. Schedule/Implementation planning Step 1: Provide a FABEC airspace status overview (FASO) and enhance the cooperation between AMCs.

FAAP started to further develop the FASO tool. This is done by taking into account requirements from airspace design projects and related initiatives. The task includes further the development of general requirements and the technical implementation of FASO.

Status In November 2014, Step 1 has been implemented successfully. Subsequent steps are currently under discussion at the level of the Standing Committee Operations. Until agreement on the future of the FABEC ATFCM/ASM Project (FAAP) has been reached, the Standing Committee Operations decided to limit the scope of FAAP to further develop the FABEC Airspace Status Overview (FASO) by taking into account requirements from airspace design projects. In the framework of the bilateral initiative DFS – DSNA a trial is executed from 12/11/2015 until 04/02/2016 to validate AMC coordination to optimize the availability of cross-border CDR routeing (City Pair Paris – Munich).

Project Name: Free Route Airspace Project Code: FRA Organisation(s)  Belgocontrol  DFS  DSNA  LVNL  MUAC  Skyguide  Military partners of: BE, DE, FR, NL and CH Description/Scope/Objectives The FRA programme aims at developing and implementing a Free Route Airspace FABEC wide. The objective of the FRA implementation is to give users opportunities to improve the horizontal flight efficiency through both plannable direct routes and at a later stage defined volume/s of Free Route Airspace within FABEC airspace. The FRA programme defines a stepped and gradual implementation approach where FABEC ACCs will develop and implement various iterations of Free Route Airspace.

Schedule/Implementation planning The FABEC FRA project was launched in 2011 with the objective of setting up a FABEC Free Route Airspace with A-FUA at FL 365 (and lower when and where possible) in a stepped approach by the end of RP2. In 2015, the project has been aligned with the requirements of Pilot Common Project requirements. This induced an implementation of FABEC Free Route Airspace FL310+ by 2022. Since the feasibility to achieve the implementation of Free Route at FL 310 in the whole FABEC airspace (and at all time), especially in high density airspace, is not yet proven, a stepwise approach will be chosen. The stepwise implementation may start at higher Flight Levels and/or in parts of FABEC airspace with lower traffic density and may be time and/or area restricted. The different situation at FABEC ANSP's such as system functionalities, system implementation plans as also the MME shall be taken into account.”All Free Route initiatives conducted locally, bilaterally or within a FABEC framework are under the FABEC FRA umbrella. Free Route activities which are not directly conducted within FABEC working groups are managed at ACC or national level using local management processes and are monitored at FABEC level. The Project focuses on the launch of FRA implementation whilst continuing the Direct Routing implementation, moving from three steps to three parallel work streams. Each work stream develops a specific concept:  Stream 1: National and cross border DCTs  Stream 2: Long Range Direct Routing Mil OFF/Mil ON  Stream 3: Initial Free Routing Status  For all ANSP’s, stream 1 and 2 implementations have begun and are on-going.  For DFS and MUAC, initial implementations of Free Routing are planned by 2017. Link to ESSIP (ATM Master Plan Level 3) / OI Steps (ATM Master Plan Level 2) / Other references ESSIP: - AOM21.1: Implementation of Direct Routing - AOM 21.2: Implementation of Free Route Airspace PCP: - AF3.1.2, 3.2 & 3.3: Free Route Deployment Programme DP 2015: - Family 3.2.1: Upgrade of ATM systems (NM, ANSPs, AUs) to support Direct Routings (DCTs) and Free Routing Airspace (FRA) - Family 3.2.3: Implement Published Direct Routings (DCTs) - Family 3.2.4: Implement Free Route Airspace Expected Performance Contribution (specific to the participating organisation(s)) Capacity Capacity benefits could be foreseen since reduced average transit times may result in an increase in capacity. Capacity benefits may also be possible if there is proven to be a reduced number of conflicts, fewer redirects, and the resulting impact on controller tools. However it is also possible that in some cases conflicts may become more complex and other or new choke points may emerge. Hence the overall impact of FRA on sector capacity cannot be determined without simulations. Safety No impact. Environment FRA allows airspace users to fly direct routes, thus reducing flight distance flown, with (including flight consequent savings in fuel and direct and strategic operating costs. There are environmental efficiency) benefits from savings in CO2-emissions. Cost efficiency Investments at ANSP-level will deliver benefits in financial terms to users, but not to ANSPs.

Project Name: Extended Arrival Management Project Code: XMAN Organisation(s)  Belgocontrol  DFS  DSNA  LVNL  MUAC  Skyguide  NATS Description/Scope/Objectives The XMAN/AMAN project will develop and implement a harmonised approach to arrival management in the core area of Europe because it has to rely on cross-centre and cross-border processes and procedures. The implementation of XMAN will improve and optimise arrival management operations for the major 5 airports/TMAs as well as for other selected intermediate airports as defined by the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 716/2014. One of the main characteristics of the XMAN project is the extension of the planning horizon of arrival management systems (AMAN) from the local TMA into the airspace of upstream control centres. The final extension of arrival management operations is expected to reach as far as 200 NM or even beyond, depending on the operational environment and the needs of the stakeholders. These extended planning horizons will cover almost the entire FABEC airspace and, as a consequence, most of the FABEC control centres will be affected by extended AMAN operations and some of them will need to feed several arrival streams for different airports/TMAs. Schedule/Implementation planning The XMAN project envisages 3 development and implementation steps: Basic - from 2012 to 2017 The Basic Step uses the currently available systems and technologies in order to establish cross-centre arrival management in the airspace controlled by DFS, LVNL, MUAC, DSNA and NATS. Advanced - from 2013 to 2023 The Advanced Step will take into account validated SESAR results concerning Time Based Flow Management (TBFM) in order to improve the en-route part of cross-centre arrival management in the overall FABEC airspace. This step also requires enhanced data exchange between ACC/UAC in order to support a delay sharing strategy. Additional planning information related to departures and airborne flights will be used to be provided by Airport- CDM and/or Network Management. This step has potentially an impact on all FABEC ACCs. Optimised - from 2017 to 2023 The Optimised Step will take into account further validated SESAR results and will optimize the cooperation between arrival management and Airport-CDM, Aircraft Operators and Network Management in order to widely share Arrival Management (AM) information between all partners and to process and to apply Arrival Management information where needed. Status The FABEC XMAN Basic Step definition has been finalized in September 2015. The concept development of the Advanced Step has been finalized in November 2014.

Project Name: Flow Optimisation Concept Scenario Project Code: FOCS Organisation(s)  Belgocontrol  DFS  DSNA  MUAC  NATS Description/Scope/Objectives The overall objective of the FOCS Project is to develop, to validate (when applicable) and to implement the different tabled implementation packages defined during the FOCS Study, while taking the most recent changes of the FABEC airspace into account. For RP3, an updated problem statement will be developed in Q4 2016 which will be the basis for further work for this reference period.

FOCS area

Schedule/Implementation planning The Local Implementation Packages will be fully executed and managed locally (ASM and VFE improvements, CBA100, French corner). For these elements the FOCS Project only ensures FABEC monitoring. As such, their planning is done at local level and not in scope. For the Implementation Packages (IPs) West (W) and East-South (ES), work is planned in two parallel streams (W and ES). Each stream has its own set of PLC milestones.  The phase up to MS2 will focus on achieving an agreement on the overall design (for West) or on a shortlist of acceptable overall designs (for ES).  The phase up to MS3 will use real-time simulations to select and validate the final design for ES. The W and ES designs will be further elaborated to a level of detail allowing actual implementation. The safety and performance work up to MS2 will be limited to monitoring of progress. Furthermore, the technical domain is not involved at this stage. The bulk of the work up to MS2 will therefore be done by the PMT, which has a mixed attendance of civil and military operational experts. The PMT will handle both streams of work (W, ES). Expected availability of PMT members drives the rate of progress in the current planning.

Improve runway and airfield safety with ATC clearances monitoring [PCP] AOP12 Timescales: Planned [Essential] Initial operational capability: 01/01/2015 Full operational capability: 31/12/2020 AERODROME‐ATC‐36(EN), AO‐0104‐A(OI) [E] LSZH ‐ Zürich Airport Currently, ZRH TWR ATCO clearances and instructions are not systematically traced in the e‐strip and A‐ SMGCS equipment. Furthermore clearances and instructions which are already entered into the different equipment are recorded afterwards. The Advanced Runway Safety Improvement (ARSI) project aims at changing the working methods and procedures to systemically trace controller actions to record the clearances and instructions to get knowledge of the controllers intentions. Moreover this requires a more and deeper coupled e‐strip and A‐ SMGCS systems as it is the case today in order to improve the situational awareness within the TWR and APRON rooms as well as to provide alerts/warnings in case of safety critical / contradictory ATC clearances. A special focus has to be paid to the crossing runways in terms of take‐offs and landings in their different 31/12/2018 configurations. This new capability to alert of potentially critical situations is to be realized through the integration between the existing skyguide TWR A‐SMGCS (SAMAX), TWR/APP e‐strip and coordination tool (TRACE), FZAG airport e‐strip and DMAN (DARTS) and SMAN (to come). This should contribute to a first step towards the complete integration of the automation support tools provided by the ANSP for TWR control and those managing the airport situation. In addition, this new capability will be put in the latter into relation with the up‐to‐come new FZAG AGL (Air Ground Lighting) system to interact in a more advanced way with it using the new capabilities developed in ARSI to pave the foundations for inititiatives like PIVIS or follow‐the‐green.

Implement ACAS II compliant with TCAS II change 7.1 Timescales: Partly ATC16 Initial operational capability: 01/03/2012 Completed Full operational capability: 31/12/2015 PRO‐AC‐21(EN) ‐ The objective is implemented but the SloA ATC16‐ASP02 that cannot be complied with 31/12/2015 REG (By:12/2015) Completed FOCA Regulatory provisions are implemented. ‐ 31/12/2015 ASP (By:03/2012) Objective ATC16‐ASP02 cannot be complied with because: No Plan

1. The regulatory framework addresses a phase‐in implementation of TCAS II v.7.1, starting with forward fitting as of 01 March 2012, and ending with retrofitting 01 December 2015. Hence, at least by the end of 2015, there will be mixed aircraft population operating in Europe, in terms of TCAS II version equipage. On the other hand, ANSP has no way of knowing which version of TCAS II an aircraft is equipped with, since these data are not provided through a FPL, and hence no appropriate mechanism for monitoring performance of TCAS II v.7.1 can be established.

2. Finish date of the ATC16‐ASP02 objective coincides with the start date of the objective ATC16‐REG02 (Provide airworthiness certification). Hence, ANSPs are expected to establish a monitoring mechanism for a piece of equipment that still hasn't been certified, i.e. before any such piece of equipment can be found airborne. On the other hand, for a requirement of such kind, as a minimum testing, operational evaluation and transition Skyguide ‐ periods have to be defined. ‐

In addition to the above, it should be noted that:

‐ the ICAO provision the ATC16‐ASP02 is based upon is a recommendation, published in a PANS document, for which the ICAO Member States do not have to declare differences with. In addition, when developed, this provision was intended for fundamentally different purpose which does not include monitoring of difference in behaviour of the two different TCAS models. That need is already responded to through the established reporting mechanism ‐ see below.

‐ for the ECAC region, the ACAS monitoring function is part of the European Safety Programme (ESP) Field 2 (incident reporting and data collection), which is, in turn, developed in response to the Safety Data Reporting and Data Flow Task Force (SAFREP)‐s Recommendation No. 7 ‐to bring rationalisation in European ATM safety data collation and analysis‐..‐.
