EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In accordance with the COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 970/2014 of 12th September 2014 amending Regulation (EU) No 677/2011 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of air traffic management (ATM) network functions the European Route Network Improvement Plan (ERNIP) is a plan developed by the Network Manager in coordination with the operational stakeholders. It includes the result of Network Manager’s operational activities with respect to short and medium term route network design in accordance with the Network Strategy Plan. In response to the same COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) and the EUROCONTROL Provisional Council Airspace Action Plan, the objective of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 is the enhancement of European ATM capacity, flight efficiency and environmental performance through the development and implementation of an improved ATS route network, Free Route Airspace and TMA systems structures supported by corresponding improvements to the airspace structure and the optimal utilisation rules. The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 also responds to the COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 390/2013 of 3rd May 2013 (laying down a performance scheme for air navigation services and network functions). It provides a network consolidated picture of network and local/FAB projects and the evaluation of their expected performance in response to the European network performance targets and local environment reference values. As a result of those evaluations it can be derived that the performance targets of the 2nd Reference Period of the Single European Sky Performance Scheme (RP2) will not be met unless the proposed NM measures will be implemented. The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 will ensure the implementation, in cooperation with the ANSPs and the FABs, of the Airspace Vision agreed by the Network Management Board: a comprehensive cross-border implementation of Free Route Airspace, at least at and above FL310, in the European airspace; an optimised route structure below FL310 ensuring efficient connectivity in/out terminal airspace; a simplification of the RAD; a harmonisation of the airspace publications; more efficient Flexible Use of Airspace procedures and the associated system support to enable a better utilisation of the civil/military airspace structures; a closer cooperation between the Network Manager, the airspace users and the computer flight plan service providers aimed at ensuring a better utilisation of the available airspace structures. The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20: achieves an European Route Network for the safe and efficient operation of air traffic, taking due account of the environmental impact; keeps operational consistency of the European airspace organisation; consolidates into a network approach the Functional Airspace Blocks developments, the wide implementation of airspace projects from Free Route Airspace to TMA developments; facilitates the development of an airspace structure offering the required level of safety, capacity, flexibility, responsiveness, environmental performance and seamless provision of expeditious air navigation services, with due regard to security and defence needs; ensures regional interconnectivity and interoperability of the European route network within the ICAO EUR Region and with adjacent ICAO Regions. As from the full implementation of ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 in 2019/2020, flying distances would be reduced year to year by approximately 4 million NMs. When compared to the start of RP2, the total benefits that ENRIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 would bring represent 84 million NMs, i.e. the equivalent of 500 000 tons of fuel saved, or reduced emissions of 1 680 000 tons, or 420 million Euros.

1. A CONSOLIDATED EUROPEAN AIRSPACE DEVELOPMENT
1.1. OBJECTIVE, SCOPE AND TIMEFRAME
In response to the COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 970/2014 of 12th September 2014 amending Regulation (EU) No 677/2011 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of air traffic management (ATM) network functions and the EUROCONTROL Provisional Council Airspace Action Plan, the objective of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 is the enhancement of European ATM capacity, flight efficiency and environmental performance through the development and implementation of an improved ATS route network, Free Route Airspace and TMA systems structures supported by corresponding improvements to the airspace structure and the optimal utilisation rules of both in the European airspace.
In response to the COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 390/2013 of 3rd May 2013 (laying down a performance scheme for air navigation services and network functions) the Network Manager shall support the Commission by providing relevant input for the preparation of Union-wide performance targets before the reference periods and for monitoring the achievement of the performance targets during the reference period. This regulation requires that, the Network Manager shall support functional airspace blocks and their air navigation service providers in reaching their performance targets during reference periods by ensuring consistency between performance plans, the Network Strategy Plan and the Network Operations Plan.
In that respect, a close cooperation and synchronisation was ensured between the Network Manager and all the FABs in the preparation of their Performance Plans, of the Network Strategy Plan, of the Network Operations Plan and the ERNIP - Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20. The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 will contribute to the achievement of the performance targets of the 2nd Reference Period of the Single European Sky Performance Scheme (RP2). The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 will ensure the implementation, in cooperation with the ANSPs and the FABs, of the Airspace Vision agreed by the Network Management Board that includes: a comprehensive cross-border implementation of Free Route Airspace, at least at and above FL310, in the European airspace; an optimised route structure below FL310 ensuring efficient connectivity in/out terminal airspace; a simplification of the RAD; a harmonisation of the airspace publications; more efficient Flexible Use of Airspace procedures and the associated system support to enable a better utilisation of the civil/military airspace structures; a closer cooperation between the Network Manager, the airspace users and the computer flight plan service providers aimed at ensuring a better utilisation of the available airspace structures. The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20: achieves an European Route Network for the safe and efficient operation of air traffic, taking due account of the environmental impact; keeps operational consistency of the European airspace organisation; consolidates into a network approach the Functional Airspace Blocks developments, the wide implementation of airspace projects from Free Route Airspace to TMA developments; facilitates the development of an airspace structure offering the required level of safety, capacity, flexibility, responsiveness, environmental performance and seamless provision of expeditious air navigation services, with due regard to security and defence needs;
European Route Network Improvement Plan - Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 - Catalogue of Projects 1 28 June 2016 Edition: 1.0 ARN V-2016 - 2019/20
ensures regional interconnectivity and interoperability of the European route network within the ICAO EUR Region and with adjacent ICAO Regions. Ensures compliance with the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 716/2014 of 27th June 2014 on the establishment of the Pilot Common Project supporting the implementation of the European Air Traffic Management Master Plan (set target dates for the implementation of DCT and FRA in the ICAO EUR region).
The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 combines airspace design projects developed in a cooperative manner between the Network Manager and its operational stakeholders aimed for implementation over the period Autumn 2015 - end of 2020. The full development phase including the validation covers the period from Summer 2015 until Summer 2016. The implementation started in Autumn 2015 and continues in stages until the end of 2020. Further updates will be brought through subsequent versions of the ERNIP Part 2.
The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 includes details on: Implementation of Free Route Airspace projects; ATS route network developments; Re-sectorisation actions; Actions aimed at simplifying the usage of the ATS route network; Civil/military airspace structures; Deployment of the night route network.
The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 is derived from the following sources: Proposals covering a cohesive development of the European Airspace Structure; Solutions developed inside various FAB initiatives; Proposals originating at national or sub-regional level; Aircraft operators proposals. The European Route Network Improvement Plan - Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 covers a similar geographical area like the Network Operations Plan: . EU member States (Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom). . EUROCONTROL member States that are not EU members (Albania, Armenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Georgia, Moldova, Montenegro, Norway, Serbia, Switzerland, The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Turkey, Ukraine). In addition, the European Route Network Improvement Plan ensures full coherency of the airspace structure at the interface areas, covering many of the States that have an interface with those mentioned above. These include, amongst other States, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Egypt, Iceland, Israel, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Russian Federation and Tunisia. The latest situation of the European route network structure is available and updated at each AIRAC cycle through the publication of EUROCONTROL Regional Charts that could be found at the following link: http://www.eurocontrol.int/articles/eurocontrol-regional-charts
1.2. DEMANDING PERFORMANCE TARGETS
1.2.1. PERFORMANCE SCHEME - SECOND REFERENCE PERIOD (RP2) - 2015 - 2019
In response to the COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 390/2013 of 3rd May 2013 (laying down a performance scheme for air navigation services and network functions), a new set of Key Performance Indicators and associated targets have been set for the 2nd Reference Period (RP2).
European Route Network Improvement Plan - Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 - Catalogue of Projects 2 28 June 2016 Edition: 1.0 ARN V-2016 - 2019/20
It includes two important key performance areas and associated indicators, related to the operational performance of the European ATM network for the period 2015 - 2019.
Environment o average horizontal en-route flight efficiency of the actual trajectory, defined as follows: - the indicator is the comparison between the length of the en-route part of the actual trajectory derived from surveillance data and the corresponding portion of the great circle distance, summed over all IFR flights within or traversing the European airspace; - “en-route” refers to the distance flown outside a circle of 40 NM around the airports; - where a flight departs from or arrives at a place outside the European airspace, only the part inside the European airspace is considered; This KPI is applicable at both network and Functional Airspace Block level.
o average horizontal en-route flight efficiency of the last filed flight plan trajectory, defined as follows: - the difference between the length of the en-route part of the last filed flight plan trajectory and the corresponding portion of the great circle distance, summed over all IFR flights within or traversing the European airspace; - “en-route” refers to the distance flown outside a circle of 40 NM around the airports; - where a flight departs from or arrives at a place outside the European airspace, only the part inside the European airspace is considered; This KPI is only applicable at network level.
Capacity o minutes of en-route ATFM delay per flight, calculated for the full year and including all IFR flights within European airspace and all ATFM delay causes, excluding exceptional events.
For the second performance Reference Period starting on 1st January 2015 and ending on 31st December 2019, the European Union-wide performance targets will be as follows:
Environment target: Actual trajectory (KEA) - an average of 2.6% route extension by 2019, decreasing from 3.17% in 2012 (based on PRB measurements) Last filed flight plan trajectory (KEP) - an average of 4.1% route extension by 2019, decreasing from 5.15% in 2012 (based on PRB measurements)
Capacity target: average en route Air Traffic Flow Management (ATFM) delay of 0.5 minutes per flight for each year of the second Reference Period.
The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 also responds to the targets included in the Network Performance Plan (NPP) 2015 - 2019 as described below:
o Route extension - airspace design Targets: o achieve an improvement of the DES indicator by 0.57 percentage points between the baseline year of 2012 and 2019.
European Route Network Improvement Plan - Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 - Catalogue of Projects 3 28 June 2016 Edition: 1.0 ARN V-2016 - 2019/20
o Route extension - last filed flight plan Targets: o This is a European-wide indicator in RP2 and the NM target for RP2 is to achieve 4.1% value for KEP indicator by 2019 for the entire SES area and 3.82% for the NM area, fully consistent with the EU-wide target, i.e. a reduction by 1.05 pp (percentage points) between the baseline year of 2012 and 2019 o Route extension - actual trajectory Targets: o The NM target for RP2 is to achieve 2.6% value for KEA indicator by 2019 for both the SES and NM areas, fully consistent with the EU-wide target o NM direct contributions to flight efficiency savings o The NM objectives is that these FE direct savings will amount to 10% (2015 - 2016) and 5% (2017 - 2019) of the savings required to achieve the annual 0.15 pp reduction (or alternatively 5% of the actual KEP reduction) each year o Increase the CDR1/2 usage o NM objective is to increase the CDR availability (CD-RAI) and CDR usage (CDR-RAU) by 5% between 2015 and 2019
There are no performance indicators/targets set yet for 2020.
1.3. EUROPEAN ROUTE NETWORK IMPROVEMENT PLAN - PRINCIPLES
With the development of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 of the European Route Network Improvement Plan the Network Manager, States, air navigation service providers as part of functional airspace blocks or individually, applied, within the cooperative decision-making process, the following airspace design principles: the establishment and configuration of airspace structures was based on operational requirements, irrespective of national or functional airspace block borders or FIR boundaries, and was not bound by the division level between upper and lower airspace; the design of airspace structures was a transparent process showing decisions made and their justification through taking into account the requirements of all users whilst reconciling safety, capacity, environmental aspects and with due regard to military and national security needs; the present and forecast traffic demand, at network and local level, and the performance targets were used as an input for the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 of the European Route Network Improvement Plan with a view to satisfying the needs of the main traffic flows and airports; vertical and horizontal connectivity, including terminal airspace and the airspace structure at the interface was ensured; the possibility for flights to operate along, or as near as possible to, user required routes and flight profiles in the en route phase of flight; the development and inclusion of the vast majority of airspace structures proposals, including Free Route Airspace, multiple route options and CDRs, received from stakeholders having an operational requirement in the European airspace;
European Route Network Improvement Plan - Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 - Catalogue of Projects 4 28 June 2016 Edition: 1.0 ARN V-2016 - 2019/20
the design of airspace structures including Free Route Airspace and ATC sectors took into account existing or proposed airspace structures designated for activities which require airspace reservation or restriction. To that end only such structures that are in accordance with the application of FUA are included. Such structures were harmonised and made consistent to the largest possible extent across the entire European network; ATC sector design development was based on the required route or traffic flow alignments within an iterative process that ensured compatibility between routes or flows and sectors; ATC sectors were designed to enable the construction of sector configurations that satisfy traffic flows and are adaptable and commensurate with variable traffic demand; agreements on service provision are considered in cases where ATC sectors require, for operational reasons, to be designed across national or functional airspace block borders or FIR boundaries. With respect to airspace utilisation and capacity management, the following principles apply: airspace structures shall be planned to facilitate flexible and timely airspace use and management with regard to routing options, traffic flows, sector configuration schemes and the configuration of other airspace structures; airspace structures should accommodate the establishment of additional route options while ensuring their compatibility (capacity considerations and sector design limitations).
All principles above were fully considered in the development of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 of the European Route Network Improvement Plan.
1.4. THE AIRSPACE ACTION PLAN
The Airspace Action Plan was adopted by the EUROCONTROL PC at its 28th Session, in November 2007. The Airspace Action Plan covers the need for a continued pan-European approach and concrete actions to improve network efficiency and capacity through airspace planning, design and management at network level. This Airspace Action Plan helps in eliminating fragmentation and identifying best options that respond to the recommendations and strategic objectives agreed by the EUROCONTROL Provisional Council (PC) and the high level objectives of the Single European Sky. The development of ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 fully responds to the actions set by the EUROCONTROL Provisional Council in the context of the Airspace Action Plan.
1.5. THE FLIGHT EFFICIENCY PLAN
IATA, CANSO and EUROCONTROL worked in a close partnership along with airlines, airports and ANSPs to identify solutions and launch operational actions that lead to fuel and emissions savings. The Flight Efficiency Plan was commonly agreed in September 2008. The Flight Efficiency Plan builds on the accelerated implementation of the measures already approved by the EUROCONTROL Provisional Council, currently put in place by all ATM actors, and included in the Airspace Action Plan, the Airspace Management Improvement Initiative, the Terminal Airspace Improvement Initiative and the Airport Programme. The adoption and the gradual deployment of the Flight Efficiency Plan proved the benefits expected. Since its adoption, in September 2008, in terms of airspace design efficiency (if all flights would have used the route network without any route restrictions and with all CDRs permanently available), the route extension decreased from 3.65% in January 2008 to 2.45% in December 2015. These achievements came as a result of the implementation of ARN Version-6, ARN Version-7 and ARN Version-8, ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2013 - 2015 as well as from the initial steps of ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2014 - 2018/19 and ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2015 - 2019.

1.6. PREPARATION OF THE ERNIP PART 2 - ARN VERSION 2016 - 2019/20
The following steps were followed for the preparation of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20: The development of the next European Route Network Improvement Plan - Part 2 edition will cover, as per the requirements of the NMF IR, a 5-years period (2016 - 2019/20). All ANSPs and FABs will be required to provide their airspace plans until 2020. The Network Manager will provide the list of all known plans until 2019/20 to all ANSPs and FABs. The Network Manager will provide the environment/flight efficiency reference values per FAB for the period 2016 - 2019/20, as per the requirement of the Performance Scheme IR. The following preparation calendar was followed:

1.7. FUNCTIONAL AIRSPACE BLOCKS INTEGRATION INTO THE ERNIP PART 2 - ARN VERSION 2016 - 2019/20
Since 2007, as part of an overall network development approach, the RNDSG Secretariat worked in close cooperation with all FAB initiatives to provide support to FAB airspace design. Part of SES II, the establishment of FABs has started several years ahead of the nomination of the Network Manager. The Network Manager started a close cooperation with all the FABs from the start of the development of their Feasibility Studies. This close cooperation enabled the development of a number of harmonised operational projects that have the potential to contribute to future network performance, when implemented. They respond to the requirements set for the FABs, set forth in the Article 9a of the (EC) Reg. No 550/2004. Namely, those requirements are: enable optimum use of airspace, taking into account air traffic flows; ensure consistency with the European route network established in accordance with Article 6 of the airspace Regulation; ensure compatibility between the different airspace configurations, optimising, inter alia, the current flight information regions; facilitate consistency with Community-wide performance targets. Throughout 2012, and before 04/12/2012, nine FABs have submitted the documentation required for their establishment. The Regulation (EC) No 677/2011, in particular Articles 6, 8 and 10, sets a framework for an alignment of FAB operation plans with the Network Operations Plan by ensuring the compatibility of the FAB - level measures with those adopted, through the cooperative decision making process, at the Network level. The NM has established cooperation with most of the FABs to facilitate harmonised developments, operational interconnectivity between the FABs and within the FABs and at European network level. The NM has included FAB perspective in the operational improvements planning processes even before the due date set for the Member States to implement FABs (December 2012). The NM supported a co-ordinated development and, in some cases, deployment of the FAB improvements. This ensured an overall pan-European network consistency, and a uniform application of ASM/ATFCM procedures, a synchronized implementation of new airspace projects or operational concepts and a cohesive view of the performance improvements in relation to the EU-wide targets. The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 includes contributions from a large number of FABs. This consolidated view responds to the Single European Sky requirements for the FABs: to enable optimum use of airspace, taking into account traffic flows and to ensure consistency with the European route network.
1.7.1. FAB Performance Plans and their Relation to the European Route Network Improvement Plan
It is important to note that the COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 390/2013 of 3rd May 2013 (laying down a performance scheme for air navigation services and network functions) defines also the principles for assessing the FAB Performance Plans and targets. In this new framework, FABs will be asked to provide the evidence that they will meet the performance targets. In that respect, the following assessment criteria have been defined in the IR:
European Route Network Improvement Plan - Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 - Catalogue of Projects 7 28 June 2016 Edition: 1.0 ARN V-2016 - 2019/20
ENVIRONMENT Average horizontal en route flight efficiency of the actual trajectory: (a) comparison with historical performance achieved in previous years; (b) comparison with a reference value based on information provided by the Network Manager; (c) consistency with the European Route Network Improvement Plan developed by the Network Manager.
CAPACITY En route delay level. Comparison of the expected level of en route ATFM delay used in the performance plans with: (a) a reference value based on information from the Network Operations Plan of the Network Manager; (b) the capacity plan established by the en route air navigation service provider(s) as reflected in the Network Operations Plan of the Network Manager.
The KEA reference values based on the European-wide target, for each of the Functional Airspace Blocks, are as follows:
2012 Achievement Improvement 2012-2019 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019
SW FAB 4.27% 0.99% 3.85% 3.71% 3.57% 3.43% 3.28% UK-Ireland FAB 3.64% 0.65% 3.36% 3.27% 3.18% 3.09% 2.99% FABEC 3.56% 0.60% 3.30% 3.22% 3.14% 3.05% 2.96% BLUE MED FAB 3.02% 0.57% 2.78% 2.70% 2.62% 2.54% 2.45% FAB CE 2.13% 0.32% 1.99% 1.94% 1.90% 1.85% 1.81% DANUBE FAB 1.69% 0.32% 1.55% 1.50% 1.46% 1.41% 1.37% Baltic FAB 1.61% 0.25% 1.50% 1.47% 1.44% 1.40% 1.36% NEFAB 1.44% 0.22% 1.35% 1.32% 1.29% 1.26% 1.22% DK-SE FAB 1.20% 0.01% 1.20% 1.20% 1.20% 1.20% 1.19%
The evaluations of the expected performance improvements in this document have used the year 2014 as the baseline year. They are based on assigned flight plan situation. By considering 2014 as a baseline year and a macroscopic evaluation not including all flights, they are considered to be conservative. They provide a good estimation of the potential of a FAB to deliver the expected performance to meet European targets. It also shows that the interfaces between FABs will require a very particular attention.

2. ARN VERSION 2016 - 2019/20 BENEFITS
2.1. TOTAL EXPECTED BENEFITS - ERNIP PART 2 - ARN VERSION 2016 - 2019/20
The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 contains, at this stage, more than 480 (four hundred eighty) packages of airspace proposals scheduled for implementation for the Summer seasons 2016 - 2019/20, out of which 147 are implemented by 28th April 2016. These proposals include more than 300 route changes, around 20 re-sectorisation plans, more than 30 TMA projects, more than 60 Free Route Airspace projects, 5 civil/military airspace developments as well as more than 70 improvement measures eliminating unnecessary RAD restrictions or improving flight efficiency. They were or will be implemented as follows: approximately 210 proposals for the Summer season 2016; approximately 210 proposals for the Summer season 2017; approximately 35 proposals for the Summer season 2018; approximately 10 proposals for the Summer season 2019 approximately 20 proposals from autumn 2019 until the end of 2020. As from the full implementation of ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 in 2019/2020, flying distances would be reduced year to year by approximately 4 million NMs. When compared to the start of RP2, the total benefits that ENRIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 would bring represent 84 million NMs, i.e. the equivalent of 500 000 tons of fuel saved, or reduced emissions of 1 680 000 tons, or 420 million Euros. The implementation of ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 has the potential to significantly improve flight efficiency if all projects are fully implemented. The route extension due to airspace design (if all flights would have used the route network without any route restrictions and with all CDRs permanently available) is expected to decrease from 2.45% in December 2015 to approximately 2.13% by 2020. The graph below shows the expected evolution of flight efficiency between 2008 and 2020 in terms of extension compared to the great circle.

The following map shows the Free Route Airspace implementation plans proposed until end of RP2 in 2020.
The Free Route Airspace development year by year is presented in chapter 7.1 of this document.
3.3. ASM SOLUTIONS
The implementation of ASM solutions are particularly important in the context of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 that will include further solutions to improve network performance for the most penalised city pairs, through further deployment of the European night direct route network, solutions offering to the airspace users several and/or shorter routing options, etc. The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 will require also to accommodate both civil and military requirements, the ASM solutions will need therefore to be fully exploited. In this context a number of ASM solutions have been tested in 2014. Additional activities have been executed in 2015 in the frame of FREE Solutions Large Scale Demonstration Project to evaluate the application of ASM solutions in a FRA environment. A number of DCTs have been identified in order to promote a better utilisation of airspace based on co-ordination among civil and military.

Based also on the outcome of the FREE Solutions Project, a revision of the ASM handbook has been initiated with the purpose to define a process to be applied in future for similar scenarios. In this respect NETOPS/14 agreed the proposed amendment on ASM solutions for ERNIP Part 3 ASM Handbook.
3.4. SIMPLIFYING THE RAD
A number of RAD restrictions have successfully been tackled and clear flight efficiency improvements achieved with no impact on safety or on capacity. An elimination of further restrictions impacting Croatia, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, Turkey and UK is planned until end 2020. There is a clear need to further review the RAD restrictions with the participation of all the interested parties. It is expected the Network Manager to run a Network impact assessment of the RAD restrictions implemented in the States. States will be requested to study if some of the RAD restrictions where put in place to balance capacity during a specific period of the year and therefore can be deactivated during the rest. Furthermore the Network Manager provided input to the States/ANSPs/FABs on the inconsistencies identified in regard to the current allowed DCTs in RAD Appendix 4 and 5. All the required improvements for many areas will be implemented within the context of ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20.
3.5. IMPROVING TMA STRUCTURES
Improved Terminal Airspace design projects are or will be implemented in the context of the ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 at: - Al Hoceima TMA; - Ankara TMA; - Barcelona TMA; - Batumi TMA; - Beograd TMA; - Canarias TMA; - Istanbul TMA; - Izmir TMA; - Ljubljana TMA; - London TMA; - Milano TMA; - Nador El Atoui TMA; - NAPOC TMA; - Oslo TMA (HOPE - Harmonisation of Oslo Procedures and Environment); - Paris TMA (Point Merge TE); - Poznan TMA; - Santorini TMA; - Tbilisi TMA; - Tetouan TMA, - Tivat TMA; - Wien TMA.

3.6. THE FLIGHT EFFICIENCY PLAN
IATA, CANSO and EUROCONTROL worked in a close partnership along with airlines, airports and ANSPs to identify solutions and launch operational actions that will lead to fuel and emissions savings in the short term to develop a Flight Efficiency Plan that was commonly agreed in September 2008. The Flight Efficiency Plan builds on the accelerated implementation of the measures already approved by the EUROCONTROL Provisional Council, currently put in place by all ATM actors, and included in DMEAN, the Airspace Action Plan, the Airspace Management Improvement Initiative, the Terminal Airspace Improvement Initiative and the Airport Programme. The action points of the Flight Efficiency Plan, relevant for the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20, are: 1. Enhancing European en-route airspace design through annual improvements of European ATS route network, high priority being given to: o Implementation of a coherent package of annual improvements and of shorter routes; o Improving efficiency for the most penalised city pairs; o Implementation of additional Conditional Routes for main traffic flows; o Supporting initial implementation of free route airspace. 2. Improving airspace utilisation and route network availability through: o Actively support and involve aircraft operators and the computer flight plan service providers in flight plan quality improvements; o Gradually applying route availability restrictions only where and when required; o Improving the utilisation of civil/military airspace structures. 3. Efficient TMA design and utilisation, through: o Implementing advanced navigation capabilities o Implementing Continuous Descent Approaches (CDAs), improved arrival/departure routes, optimised departure profiles, etc. The vast majority of the improvements considered in the context of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 contribute to the deployment of the Flight Efficiency Plan.
3.7. THE NETWORK MANAGER FLIGHT EFFICIENCY INITIATIVE
A closer cooperation with the airspace users to ensure a better flight planning is essential to ensure the achievement of the RP2 targets. The good progress made over the past years in the airspace design resulted in a European airspace offering, in a dynamic manner, a high number of options for the airspace users. In order to achieve a better utilisation of the European airspace by the airspace users, the network manager launched a Flight Efficiency Initiative that covers the following aspects: . Flight Planning Improvements in the Strategic Phase . An interactive tool was developed to allow all AOs and CFSPs to compare their flight plans with the best filed flight plan accepted by IFPS during the last AIRAC cycle; . The airspace users and the CFSPs will have the possibility to detect new implemented routes, CDRs available during similar periods of time, etc.; . It is expected that the airspace users and the CFSPs will use this interface to improve their flight planning for the “next” AIRAC cycle; . This tool could also be used to assess individual airline flight plans or to detect possible network performance evolutions.

. Enhanced utilisation of CDRs through the deployment of ASM solutions . Assessment of traffic demand, ATFM measures, sector configurations and CDRs availability; . Existence of CDRs segments in the FPL; . Route extension compared with the “best option”; flight extension mostly for en- route section (avoid extensive arrival/departure situations); . Search for the flights with the shortest planned route for each city pair having at least one CDR in their planned route; . For each city pair assess the CDR availability requirements if all the flights on that city pair would plan the shortest route; . Proposals to AOs for better routes including CDRs; . Possible coordination with military partners, when required, for coordinated availability of CDRs.
. Flight Planning improvements in the Pre-Tactical/Tactical Phases . Enhance the visibility for aircraft operators on other route network utilisation options, post IFPS flight planning with proposals being displayed to the users; the final choice in accepting a more optimised proposal remains with the airspace users. Those actions are based on: . The Group Rerouting Tool (opportunity tool) - an ETFMS feature allowing a recomputation of the profile considering the wind, the last ATFCM situation, simulated operating costs; . Proposals for flight efficiency improvements for invalid flight plans that require manual corrections; . Network impact assessments resulting in re-routing proposals based on CDR2 routes with the direct involvement of MILO/AOLO; . Repetitive Flight Plans (RPLs) . Proposals for RPL changes that need to be maintained by the airlines for each AIRAC cycle. . Most Penalised City Pairs . Further developments to address the Most Penalised City Pairs . Daily monitoring of the utilisation of the new airspace changes; . Detect improvements based on the latest airspace design or airspace utilisation changes. . Tactical RAD relaxations . Based on existing Crisis Procedures; . Similar procedures could be implemented during normal operations as comparisons between actual trajectories and flight plans show that the RAD is not systematically followed during tactical operations; . Tactical relaxation of RAD could be also envisaged during the night or during period of low demand.
The implementation of this initiative is based on: • A close and continuous cooperation between NM and the airspace users; • A close and continuous cooperation with the computer flight plan service providers; • Appropriate evolutions of the flight planning systems to take into account the past and future evolutions of the airspace concepts.
This initiative will require the strong support and participation of the entire airspace users community. This support is critical for ensuring the achievement of the RP2 environment/flight efficiency target. Without such a support, the positive evolutions made with respect to the European airspace design through co-operative efforts between NM, ANSPs and FABs will not provide their full potential.

4. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS FOR EUROPEAN AIRSPACE DESIGN
4.1. MAIN PRINCIPLES
Successful European airspace design is achieved through: o The implementation of an advanced and consolidated concept of operations; o A pan-European view treating the European airspace as a continuum and a strategic vision of the European ATS Route Network, designed following main traffic flows and airspace users preferred routes and profiles with optimised supporting ATC sectors unconstrained by national or FIR boundaries; o Gradual elimination of bottlenecks and reasons for flight inefficiency; o Optimised procedures for an enhanced use of airspace; o A balanced approach between European network, regional and local requirements; o A co-ordinated and integrated partnership approach for the collective benefit of airspace users, Member States, Air Navigation Service Providers, civil and military authorities deployed through a collaborative planning process. The diagram below describes the European Route Network Improvement Plan/ ERNIP development.
European Route Network Improvement Plan - Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 - Catalogue of Projects 27 28 June 2016 Edition: 1.0 ARN V-2016 - 2019/20
4.2. ERNIP PART 2 - ARN VERSION 2016 - 2019/20 IMPROVEMENTS HIGHLIGHTS
4.2.1. Introduction The performance targets place more demands on the need to enhance the organisation and use of the European ATM network. Additional capacity will need to be delivered, flight efficiency improved and environmental impact reduced, while maintaining or improving safety of operations. Air traffic diversity is expected to become more complex with the emergence of additional civil and military requirements, which will alter the mix and flight profiles of the airspace users. This will lead to additional diversity in the airspace user requirements The solution for meeting the safety, capacity, flight efficiency/cost effectiveness and environmental requirements is the strategic planning and design of “packages” of ATS routes of the ARN, Free Route Airspace, Terminal Routes, airspace reservations and ATC sectors, to respond to the requirements of different strategic objectives. These packages are called Airspace Configurations. The solution for meeting the diversity of user requirements is the effective and dynamic management of airspace configurations through a highly flexible and integrated Cooperative Decision Making (CDM) process at network, regional, national and local level management of the pre-designed airspace configurations through a highly flexible and integrated CDM process at network, regional, national and local level.
4.2.2. Basic Concept In both en-route and terminal airspace, an Airspace Configuration refers to the pre-defined and co-ordinated organisation of ATS routes of the ARN and/or Terminal Routes, Free Route Airspace and their associated airspace structures (including temporary airspace reservations, if appropriate) and ATC sectorisation. In the en-route airspace, airspace configurations are to be comprised of pre-defined fixed and flexible routing options or optimised trajectories and optimum ATC sectorisation capable of being dynamically adapted to traffic demand. Airspace configurations will be activated, through a CDM process, depending upon the driving Strategic Objective(s) for a particular geographic area and/or time period. In terminal airspace, airspace configurations are contained primarily within terminal airspace structures. Airspace configurations may be activated depending upon the runway configuration in use at one or more airports and the driving Strategic Objective(s) of a particular time period. The above is based on a coordinated and systematic approach to selecting and changing airspace configurations across the European ATM System. The ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 is built on a close co-operation between airspace design, ATFCM and ASM. It supports a close link between airspace design and airspace utilisation.
4.2.3. European Network Consistency The overall European Network Consistency is assured across through the consolidated development of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20. Co-ordination and consolidation of airspace design, planning and implementation is achieved through Cooperative Decision Making (CDM) at European network level. The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 is based on a European wide collaborative process by which the major traffic flows, combined with major airspace constraints (airports, military areas etc.) are translated into a basic route structure. Built upon agreed planning principles, the resultant structure provides the basis for more detailed development by States and ANSPs at national or regional/FAB level. The scheme will consider the European airspace in its totality, independent of FIR boundaries.
European Route Network Improvement Plan - Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 - Catalogue of Projects 28 28 June 2016 Edition: 1.0 ARN V-2016 - 2019/20
4.2.4. Airspace Continuum An airspace continuum was envisaged in the development of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20. This means that there is no intended division within en-route airspace or between en-route and terminal airspace. However, the different attributes of en-route and terminal airspace drove specific requirements resulted in changes to various interfaces to improve efficiency. A lateral airspace continuum is ensured through regional airspace configurations in both en-route and Terminal Airspace (e.g. FAB or TAS), where application of various the rules associated with airspace utilisation will be harmonised. A network continuum was ensured through the development of the overall ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 where all aspects related to lateral and vertical interconnectivity, including interconnectivity within and between regional airspace configurations, were thoroughly addressed.
4.2.5. ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 Components ATS routes continue to characterise the airspace for the most part in the context of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20, while Free Route Airspace will be used in selected airspaces and/or at selected times. The main characteristic of the ATS routes of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 is to offer more routeing options to the airspace users. These routes will be based on principles of route network design and sectorisation independent from national boundaries, adapted to main traffic flows. An airspace structure built on the basis of an ATS route network and Free Route Airspace is capable of being managed more flexibly to permit operators to choose from several strategically designed airspace structures (ATS routes and Free Route Airspace) of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20. Improvements in the strategic design, planning and management of these 2 components will improve the predictability of the route options. This flexibility is based on principles of the Flexible Use of Airspace Concept. The requirements of GAT and OAT are accommodated by integrating these into the strategic ARN developments. ATC sectors of ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 are adapted to main traffic flows and to an optimum route network and are, when required, independent from national boundaries. More ATC sectors are developed and made available, where required (including vertical divisions), in response to variations in demand and airspace availability. This work was conducted with the full involvement of States and ANSPs as it is their direct responsibility for the final design of ATC sectors supporting the route network structure and Free Route Airspace. To improve the design and management of terminal routes and ATC sectorisation servicing several airports in close proximity, the fusion of two or more terminal airspace structures is envisaged where required. This amalgam is described as a Terminal Airspace System (TAS). These TAS could extend across national borders if necessitated by operational requirements.
4.2.6. Airspace Classification Above FL195, ATS routes, Free Route Airspace and Terminal Routes will be contained within Class C airspace. At and below FL195, ATS routes of the ARN as well as Terminal routes will be contained within airspace where, for safety reasons, there is to be a uniform application of the rules associated with the 7 ICAO airspace classes. At or below FL195, where supplemental rules to the 7 ICAO airspace classes are required to respond to operational and safety requirements, additional rules will be created and applied in a safe manner.

4.2.7. Airspace Organisation The practical airspace organisation features of ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 are: Multi-option route choice: New route segments and Free Route Airspace were added to the network. These additional airspace structures are compatible with the overall airspace structure. They include 24 hours choices, but also time limited choices (e.g. the European Night Direct Route Network or time-limited application of Free Route Airspace). In the event of airspace restrictions caused by traffic density and/or ACCs/sector configuration or activation of segregated airspace, suitable alternative options are available. The dynamic capacity/route use will be brought about by collaborative decision-making based on the pre- determined set of routing options. Modular sectorisation: To the largest possible extent and where required, sectors are established across national borders and in accordance with main traffic flows. They will support the pre-defined airspace structures. Reconfiguration of pre-defined modules of airspace (sector modularity) help to adapt the sector configurations to specific traffic flows. Efficient Terminal/En-route interface: Efficient structures based on segregated arrival/departure routes extending beyond the Terminal Airspace are part of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20. Where incompatibilities arise, priorities were discussed and given depending on operational requirements to the en-route part or to the terminal structure.
4.2.8. Airspace Development Approach The process for developing an airspace structure was based, in most of the cases on the following sequence: Determine the Route Network or the Free Route Airspace - improvement of the route network or implementation of Free Route Airspace took into account the users’ preferred routes and inclusion of direct route segments on the largest possible extent whilst meeting the requirements of the military; Define the Sector Families - areas containing specific air traffic flows and conflict areas which will consist of strongly interdependent sectors; Define Sectors - definition of the minimum operational elementary volume; Define Sector configurations - a combination of sectors best placed to satisfy the operational requirements (traffic demand, traffic pattern, staff) and airspace availability; Define the Modus Operandi 4.2.8.1. Route Network The objective of ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 is to provide Aircraft Operators with their preferred trajectories selected from within the route network, whilst ensuring that the capacity and safety targets defined by the sectorisation are met. The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 delivers more route choices to the operators when planning a flight. This involves improved access to the existing route network and the creation of new routes, including predefined direct routes available subject to time limitations or ASM conditions. The Route Network design criteria took into account the need to create additional routes that did not exist in the previous network as they caused capacity problems at certain times. The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 introduced these new routes and made them available for use under specific pre-defined conditions that are made known to all airspace users. As a result, the most direct of the routes choices could be planned at certain times. In other cases, choices will need to be made by the airspace users between the shortest route but with capacity constraints, a slightly longer route will be made European Route Network Improvement Plan - Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 - Catalogue of Projects 30 28 June 2016 Edition: 1.0 ARN V-2016 - 2019/20
available with no capacity constraints, but involving ASM solutions, or a longer route available with no airspace constraint. The airspace users will, at a pre-determined time, make the decision on the choice of route based on up to date data on the sector constraint and segregated airspace availability. The creation of pre-defined direct routes subject to ASM conditions, should provide benefit to the military users as well as it will be possible to better respond to their requirements when the preferred route is available. This in turn lead to the implementation of a larger number of CDRs 1 or 2.
4.2.8.2. Free Route Airspace The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 provides an enabling framework for the harmonised implementation of Free Route Airspace in Europe. It is based on the Free Route Airspace Concept developed in the context of the ARN Version-7 and included in ERNIP Part 1.
4.2.8.3. Sectorisation The development of ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 took into account the need to gradually implement Sector Families of interdependent sectors that can be clustered into logical Family Groups. In all the development projects aspects related to areas of weak and strong interaction were considered through the utilisation of the supporting airspace design tools. The criteria for determining Sector Families, Family Groups and elementary sectors were based on: an optimised route network, integrating direct routes, Free Route Airspace, multiple route options, associated alternatives and military operational requirements; efficient connectivity with terminal airspace; design of elementary sectors with strong/complex interaction that necessitate close co-ordination between controllers; traffic density, conflict density and repartition, traffic profiles, nature of traffic (climbing/descending), crossing flows, close crossing points, etc. operational considerations for lateral and vertical delineation; determining variable sizes of sectors with small/specialised low level sectors, deep medium sectors (for evolving traffic) and wider upper sectors; usage of modular techniques; time of flying within a sector family; several combinations of flexible sectors configuration were defined, depending on traffic flows; enabling sufficient distance for conflict resolution in all routeing options; maintaining route options, on the largest possible extent within the same sector family; iterative process for sectorisation considering route network modifications to enable the best possible sectorisation. the identification of zones of lesser complexity.

4.2.8.4. Modus Operandi The Modus Operandi of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 includes: The availability, in terms of time and FL, of route segments (including the direct route segments) or Free Route Airspace in line with the constraints imposed by segregated airspace or by the need to better balance capacity and demand; The links between-route network, Free Route Airspace airspace and sectorisation including conditions for availability of certain route segments or Free Route Airspace and their dependence on the configuration of ATC sectors to match traffic demand; Routing scenarios - including all pre-planned alternate routeings to compensate for the temporary unavailability of a certain airspace structures; Structural constraints - notified constraints, such as, the activation of segregated airspace, sector capacity restrictions, specialised routes for specific traffic flows, profile constraints to skip sectors in a given configuration and modifying capacity depending on the sector configuration; Recommended practices - proposals derived from operational experience including the process for selecting sector configurations.
4.2.9. Operating the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 The rationale for the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 was to ensure that the ATS route network, the Free Route Airspace and the ATC sector planning allow for an improved balance between: freedom for GAT to choose between-route options, and select their preferred one; offering greater flexibility for OAT users through more efficient allocation of airspace; capacity management - relying on fine tuning of route adaptation to optimise the use of available capacity where limitations of capacity occur. Local and Regional/FAB documentation was or will be amended to include the updated rules and procedures. Amongst these are: National AIPs; National ATC Regulations; LoAs; National ATM Military Documents; Airspace Management Handbook; IFPS Users Manual; ATFM Users Manual. No change was made to the route description. However, specific description and usage was implemented to facilitate flight planning for the usage of direct segments within Free Route Airspace. Flight planning procedures were further improved to take into account the flexibility of route selection offered by the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20. Further initiatives are under way to facilitate improved flight planning and route selection. Airspace users should expect more flexibility in the FPL handling based on planned IFPS system enhancements to allow for the dynamic choice of route and/or re-routeing process. The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 supports the usage of DCT in the FPL within a consolidated concept and approach. It is expected that operations within the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 will be facilitated through the deployment of the Airspace Data Repository that will ensure gradually an automated distribution of airspace availability information in order to provide all interested parties with a clear and accurate picture of the airspace structure situation.
European Route Network Improvement Plan - Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 - Catalogue of Projects 32 28 June 2016 Edition: 1.0 ARN V-2016 - 2019/20
The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 enables a more flexible ATFCM system and will ensure the gradual move towards the creation of a system responsive to capacity management. The addition of an optimisation process able to provide routeing alternatives to solve capacity and flight efficiency constraints, while maintaining the balance with the airspace user costs, will enhance the current method of managing airspace capacity.
4.2.10. Military Operations The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 recognises and supports the responsibilities and requirements of Military airspace users. In order that all airspace users gain benefit from ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20, military airspace planners were part of the planning process. An organised collection of military airspace requirements is one of the specific elements that the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 took into consideration. Through the solutions proposed in ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20, the military should be able to have: freedom to operate in all weather conditions in all areas of the European airspace; special handling in particular for priority flights and for time-critical missions, but also for military aircraft not fully equipped to the civil standard; the possibility of operating uncontrolled VFR flights; temporary airspace reservations (TSAs), situated as close as practicable to the appropriate operating airfield; airspace restrictions for non-flight related activities; a more dynamic airspace allocation system with enhanced FUA application. The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 supports these requirements through greater flexibility in airspace use, the efficient allocation of segregated airspace and associated re-routeing of GAT users. With a route network and sectorisation that adapts to the variation in traffic flows there scope for better application of the Flexible Use of Airspace.
4.2.11. Airspace Management (ASM) Solutions General Principles The identification and development of the ASM Solutions is a part of the ASM Improvements Initiative. The ASM solutions form an integral part of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20. They include: Reviewing the different application of CDR categories at the different stages; Addressing the potential incompatibility of different CDR categories on segments of the same route with the stakeholders concerned; Reviewing and improving the design of CDRs in combination with modular TRA/TSA design; Improving the definition of ASM Solutions to be used at ASM level 2 and 3. The main objective of the ASM Solutions development is to identify hidden airspace capacity or flight efficiency directly related to the area of Airspace Management, i.e. civil-military requirement to use the same portion of airspace at the same time. This activity is aimed at improving the existing practices in order to overcome the capacity constraints and provide efficient flight operations of both, civil and military airspace users. It aims at identifying such airspace use scenarios, which will bring benefits to both - civil and military categories of airspace users. It will provide for a credible balance in meeting the requirements of all the partners in airspace use and its management.
European Route Network Improvement Plan - Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 - Catalogue of Projects 33 28 June 2016 Edition: 1.0 ARN V-2016 - 2019/20
To deliver extra capacity and flight efficiency, the current ASM processes and procedures related to a particular TRA/TSA are reconsidered, both in their design and associated airspace planning and allocation processes and procedures. The enhanced ASM processes will consider various levels of flexibility, either in time or in spatial location (vertical or horizontal), that are permissible by the planned civil or military flight operations. The civil aircraft operators are to achieve more efficient, less costly and delay-free operations in some portions of airspace that today restrict meeting the demand, using different CDR options that are co-located to each sub-modular configuration of a particular temporary reserved or restricted airspace portion. The military might need to request an enlarged airspace volume to meet the requirements of specific missions. To respond to this request a set of well planned airspace scenarios that are adapted to different mission requirements concerning the airspace size (lateral and vertical) and timing will be available, thus eliminating any requirement for airspace overbooking. Air Navigation Service Providers participation in collaborative decision making on implementation of a particular scenario related to the specific TRA/TSA, will ensure that their needs of sectors’ capacity to accommodate the traffic demand are properly addressed. The final objective of the ASM Solutions development is to identify concrete and consistent solutions for each identified hot-spot, i.e. an interactive civil-military solution. Next step is to extend the activity at the sub-regional level by coordinating interaction between adjacent local options. The process of final ASM Solutions development is expected to be carried out by the civil and military partners responsible for a particular TRA/TSA. At the second stage the coordination is planned to be extended to all those concerned by the interaction in defining and deciding upon different scenarios, resulting in the most suitable sub- regional ASM Scenario. Last but not least, with this optimised local and sub-regional network response, the task of Network Operations should be focused on the global network solutions that can lead, by judicious selection, to less ATFCM measures. ASM Solutions Methodology The traffic samples to be used in initial scoping and identification of the potential hot-spots, but equally later in developing concrete ASM Scenario(s) will be based on the historical traffic data. The data on TRA/TSA booking will be derived from AUP/UUP/e-AMI information available and their occupation from various sources like CIAM and PRISMIL, or from national ASM tools. Future Data Collection and Planning The objective of this particular activity is to continually collect information and data on planned introduction and/or change in ASM-related airspace structures and arrangements, i.e. TRAs, TSAs, CBAs, manageability of D and R areas, cross-border airspace sharing arrangements. The information and data collected will enable the assessment and coordination of any planned introduction or change in collaborative manner, enabling consistent solutions planned among neighbouring States, but also at subregional (FABs) and, last but not least, at the European Regional level, thus enhancing the European Network performance. This approach was already agreed and put in place between the parties concerned. Identification of areas of interest Identification of Hot-Spots that have a potential for capacity and/or flight efficiency improvements through an interactive civil-military solution will be constantly pursued in order to make use of the options made available through the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20. For the purpose of initial scoping and identification of potential benefits the closest to the optimum ATS route traffic sample available will be considered as the reference, i.e. the least constrained by military activity or other events. It will then be put against the traffic sample of the most intense day of civil and military activity. European Route Network Improvement Plan - Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 - Catalogue of Projects 34 28 June 2016 Edition: 1.0 ARN V-2016 - 2019/20
Aircraft Operators that may benefit from the ASM/ATFCM scenarios will be involved at an early stage, to ensure that benefits are realistic and ensure AO utilisation of the scenarios. Once the selected Hot-Spots are identified, the potential benefits will be scoped for different potential solutions based on variation and combination of different parameters: Vertical A number of vertical configurations will be examined to identify any potential in dynamical managing of a TRA/TSA concerned. The main principle will be to assess if a vertical move of the military activity will contribute to the airspace capacity in particular area. Lateral Similarly to vertical, a number of lateral configurations, based on current and possible future airspace more sub-modular design will be investigated. It will be based on the larger airspace allocated (as appropriate) through activating different set of sub-modules that are sufficient to accommodate military requirements. Through this assessment it will be confirmed that there is a potential to differently organise airspace planning and allocation in a particular TRA/TSA. Time-related Possibility to increase the airspace capacity by accommodating both military and civil demand as close as possible to the planned use of airspace will be investigated. Conditional Routes More conditional routes in a particular TRA/TSA will be simulated as a function of different lateral TRA/TSA configurations to increase capacity and to accommodate military and civil requirements at the same time. The main principle will be that, except when the military requirement is to use the whole TRA/TSA, different sub-module scenarios could accommodate both - military activity planned and the civil traffic demand to pass through the TRA/TSA concerned. The main principle being that there is theoretically at least one CDR along the main traffic flow and within a particular TRA/TSA that can accommodate civil traffic. Following the steps described above a comprehensive initial impact assessment will be performed per each identified Hot-Spot candidate. This assessment is to facilitate the decision that the Hot-Spot identified qualifies to be proposed to potential partners for further work on future ASM Solutions in the particular TRA/TSA.
4.2.12. Network Enablers The main enablers for the efficient implementation of the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 are: System Support - Enhancement for the purposes of flight planning and ATFCM; Procedures - Enhanced procedures where necessary for operations within Free Route airspace and at its interfaces; Adaptations to airspace structures; Adaptations to airspace management procedures. There are no additional equipment requirements identified for aircraft operators. Nevertheless, modifications to the flight planning systems might be required to ensure that full benefit of the Free Route Airspace is achieved.
4.2.13. Impact on Adjacent Areas The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 addresses the interfaces with adjacent areas so that they remain coherent and compatible. Liaison with adjacent States was constantly made at the relevant ICAO groups where the work underway within the RNDSG is presented through working and information papers. Similarly, States, ANSPs and the ICAO secretariat are presenting updates to the RNDSG on the airspace evolutions at the interfaces. This good cooperation at the interfaces of the European airspace is ensuring a consistent airspace structure based on the continuum principle.

The Route Network Development Sub-Group (RNDSG) is the co-ordination forum for European rolling airspace design and development, planning and implementation of improved European ATS route network, optimised civil and military airspace structures and ATC sectors. The members of the RNDSG work in a partnership approach and are civil and military experts in airspace design from EUROCONTROL, States, ANSPs, Functional Airspace Blocks, airspace users international organisations, flight planner organisations and other relevant international organisations. Its work is supplemented by other activities which, depending on their nature or complexity, may be either under the auspices of the RNDSG or independent, but bringing their results into the overall network picture through RNDSG processes. Examples are: o Sub-Regional RNDSG Meetings; o Regional co-ordination meetings between States; o Working groups proposing various solutions for specific problem areas; o Special projects (FABs, national re-organisation projects, sub-regional agreements, etc.). Appropriate links are ensured with the Airspace Management Sub-Group to cover civil-military related aspects and with other specific ATFCM groups. The consolidation of the entire development process was ensured through the Network Operations Team. This cooperative planning process responds to the emerging requirements on the setting of cooperative planning and decision making processes on the development of the European route network.

5.1. A NETWORK ORIENTATED APPROACH
The Network Orientated Approach takes an European-wide view and is based upon the need to enhance the overall European ATM capacity and flight efficiency. The process progresses from broad proposals towards specific solutions via a number of steps. Step 1: Identify current and foreseen problems. The planning work highlights the capacity and flight efficiency problem areas and their causes in the airspace structure. Step 2: Build generally improved airspace structure proposals (both route segments and ATC sectors) to accommodate major traffic flows and balance ATC workload. Step 3: Within this defined framework, detailed proposals of airspace structure are elaborated with their “modus operandi”, consolidated and validated through regional expert groups. The result of local studies feeds back into the initial proposals in a dialectical and iterative process. Step 4: A phased implementation programme is agreed and carried out.

5.2. AIRSPACE UTILISATION AND MANAGEMENT
The full potential of the European airspace structure, including supporting ATC Sectors, is often hindered by the restrictions that are imposed after the routes are implemented. In order to ensure that these airspace structures are used to their full potential, the way in which they are used should be an integral contributor to the rolling airspace design process. The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 offers a greater number of possible options for its use with airspace configurations combinations facilitating a balanced approach to capacity and flight efficiency. These options were taken into account in the airspace design planning stages. Nevertheless, in order to exploit their full potential, development of appropriate Flight Data Processing Systems, enhanced ATFCM processes, the charging scheme and an enhanced ASM Concept of Operation will need to be applied. By bringing airspace design and airspace management closer together it will enhance the effectiveness of the overall ATM system. The target should be a structure that allows airspace users to fly their preferred routes and profiles, ANSPs to select the most efficient airspace organisation and ATFCM services to manage overall capacity at its optimum.
5.3. MILITARY REQUIREMENTS
To enable the military forces to carry out many of their tasks, airspace of appropriate size and convenient location needs to be readily available. New tasks and scenarios and a more varied operational repertoire are likely to require fewer but larger airspace training areas with more intensive activity at all flight levels. Airspace design processes should take into full account the need to conduct military operations and exercises ideally in close vicinity to the respective airbases. Similar to the development of multiple route options within the ATS Route Network, there is also an equivalent military requirement to develop and implement a set of pre-defined multiple airspace options for temporary use, based on close and flexible co-ordination of the use of the airspace. Nevertheless, military operations and training needs have to be safeguarded to ensure unimpaired, safe and efficient performance.

6. TRAFFIC DEMAND EVOLUTION AND ASSESSMENT
6.1. GENERAL
This section will assess the traffic demand changes between the start of implementation of ARN Version-6 and the start of implementation of ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20. Significant changes of the traffic patterns could be noted between 2008 and 2014 as a result of the economic downturn. The most impacted areas are located in Western Europe, while traffic in Southern and South Eastern Europe continued to increase.
6.2. TRAFFIC DEMAND VARIATION - COMPARISON 2008/2015 The assessment was made for a busy week 25 in 2015 (15 - 21 June 2015) during which lower level of delays were recorded. Comparing the variation in traffic demand between 2008 and 2015 (see Figure 1 below), it can be seen that the Central and Western part of Europe recorded a significant traffic decrease, predominantly in Germany, UK and Spain. A continued traffic growth is recorded in the Southern and South Eastern part of Europe, predominantly on the South-West Axis, South-East Axis, North-South Axis, East-West Axis and in Turkey.

6.3. WEEK AND WEEK-END DISTRIBUTION The assessment was made for a busy week in 2015 (15 - 21 June 2015). The European traffic distribution is similar, with the major part of the traffic concentrated in the North Western part of Europe. The high density areas are concentrating on Central Europe during week-days (see Figure 2 below) and gradually expanding to most of the European airspace and Turkey during weekend traffic (see Figure 3 below). Figure 2: Week-days traffic density (4 days in June 2015)

6.4. DISTRIBUTION AND EVOLUTION - SHORT HAUL AND MEDIUM/LONG HAUL The assessment was made for the period 1st July 2007 - 30th June 2008 and 1st July 2014 - 30th June 2015. The short-haul traffic pattern (distances up to 400 NM - see Figure 5 below) shows a decrease of domestic and business traffic for short-haul flights in most of the European airspace, in UK, in Spain - especially for the city pair Barcelona-Madrid and in Northern Italy - especially the city pair Milano-Rome. Compared to 2007/08, a higher density of traffic is noted predominantly in Turkey.

6.5. VERTICAL DISTRIBUTION (EVOLVING AND CRUISING TRAFFIC) The assessment of the traffic was made for a busy Friday (19th June 2015). The concentration of climbing/descending traffic (see Figure 7 below) is high in the core area where many of the European airports are closely located and around other busy airports in Europe. The areas of evolving traffic are expanding, indicating a continuous increase of traffic complexity across Europe. Figure 7: Areas of High Density Evolving Traffic

6.6. FLIGHT LEVEL DISTRIBUTION With the implementation of RVSM combined with the performance of new generation aircraft, the vertical distribution of traffic has moved up significantly (FL360/FL420 instead of FL330/FL360) with the most popular flight levels at FL370/FL380. Higher traffic levels at FL180/FL190 and FL230/FL240 could also be noted. Figure 9: Flight Level Distribution in EUROPE 2008 / 2015
6.7. AIRPORT TRAFFIC INCREASE The assessment was made for the period 1st July 2007 - 30th June 2008 and 1st July 2014 - 30th June 2015. Figure 10 below indicates that with the exception of airports in Belgium, Latvia, the Mediterranean area, Middle East, Moldova, North Africa, Norway, Portugal, Romania, Russian Federation, Turkey, Ukraine and some low cost operators airports, all the other airports in Europe and the Canaries recorded a significant traffic decrease, the largest was accounted to the UK.

7. MAIN PROJECTS INCLUDED IN ERNIP PART 2 - ARN VERSION 2016 - 2019/20
The ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 is an integral package of airspace design and utilisation solutions. It was built on the development of new concepts that were transposed in several layers of airspace developments. These layers are properly interconnected at network level to ensure an appropriate and cohesive airspace utilisation: between various concepts; over a 24-hours period, and over various period of the week or of the year. The further development of the concept of airspace configurations at network level will ensure an enhanced utilisation of these various layers at local, sub-regional, FAB and network levels. The main direction taken by the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20 is towards the implementation of Free Route Airspace. The latest situation of the European route network structure is available and updated at each AIRAC cycle through the publication of EUROCONTROL Regional Charts that could be found at the following link: http://www.eurocontrol.int/articles/eurocontrol-regional-charts
7.1. FREE ROUTE AIRSPACE
The following maps are showing the layer containing the evolution of Free Route Airspace initiatives already in place or planned for implementation year by year, that are currently included in the ERNIP Part 2 - ARN Version 2016 - 2019/20. This layer is supported by a network operational concept for Free Route Airspace Operations. The map below shows the Free Route Airspace implementation plans for summer 2016.
