IMPROVING ATM NETWORK PERFORMANCE Skyway SPRING 2012 magazine IN THIS ISSUE: EUROPEAN AIR TRAFFIC: LONGTERM TRENDS IN A NEW DIRECTION DEALING EFFICIENTLY WITH STORMS, SNOW AND SOCIAL UNREST THE AIRPORT RISING TO THECHALLENGE OF BOTTLENECK GLOBAL HARMONISATION. MYTH OR REALITY? THIS IS HOW GLOBAL AIR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT HARMONISATION The world’s air transportation system is fragmented and ineffi cient. That’s why it’s essential to create an air traffi c management system that links disparate systems into a harmonious whole. At Lockheed Martin, we’re working with industry partners to develop technologies that will increase capacity, provide performance enhancements and cost savings, and create the harmonious air traffi c management system of the future. Building next-generation air transportation is all a CONNECTING question of how. And it is the how that Lockheed Martin delivers.

  • Easy Access Rules for Standardised European Rules of the Air (SERA)
    Easy Access Rules for Standardised European Rules of the Air (SERA) EASA eRules: aviation rules for the 21st century Rules and regulations are the core of the European Union civil aviation system. The aim of the EASA eRules project is to make them accessible in an efficient and reliable way to stakeholders. EASA eRules will be a comprehensive, single system for the drafting, sharing and storing of rules. It will be the single source for all aviation safety rules applicable to European airspace users. It will offer easy (online) access to all rules and regulations as well as new and innovative applications such as rulemaking process automation, stakeholder consultation, cross-referencing, and comparison with ICAO and third countries’ standards. To achieve these ambitious objectives, the EASA eRules project is structured in ten modules to cover all aviation rules and innovative functionalities. The EASA eRules system is developed and implemented in close cooperation with Member States and aviation industry to ensure that all its capabilities are relevant and effective.

  • Collaborative En Route Airspace Management Considering Stochastic Demand, Capacity, and Weather Conditions
    Collaborative En Route Airspace Management Considering Stochastic Demand, Capacity, and Weather Conditions by Jeffrey M. Henderson A dissertation presented to the Faculty of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Civil Engineering Dr. Antonio Trani, Chair Dr. Hojong Baik Dr. Hesham Rakha Dr. Gerardo Flintsch Dr. C. Patrick Koelling March 26, 2008 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Airspace, Thunderstorms, Equity, Air Traffic Control, Simulation Copyright 2008, Jeffrey M. Henderson Collaborative En Route Airspace Management Considering Stochastic Demand, Capacity, and Weather Conditions Jeffrey M. Henderson ABSTRACT The busiest regions of airspace in the U.S. are congested during much of the day from traffic volume, weather, and other airspace restrictions. The projected growth in demand for airspace is expected to worsen this congestion while reducing system efficiency and safety. This dissertation focuses on providing methods to analyze en route airspace congestion during severe convective weather (i.e. thunderstorms) in an effort to provide more efficient aircraft routes in terms of: en route travel time, air traffic controller workload, aircraft collision potential, and equity between airlines and other airspace users. The en route airspace is generally that airspace that aircraft use between the top of climb and top of descent. Existing en route airspace flight planning models have several important limitations. These models do not appropriately consider the uncertainty in airspace demand associated with departure time prediction and en route travel time. Also, airspace capacity is typically assumed to be a static value with no adjustments for weather or other dynamic conditions that impact the air traffic controller.

  • Review of Research
    Review of ReseaRch REGULATORY CHALLENGES WITH CIVIL DRONES IN INDIA Mohd Owais Farooqui Assistant Professor of Law, School of Law, HILSR, Jamia issN: 2249-894X Hamdard University, New Delhi (India) impact factoR : 5.7631(Uif) UGc appRoved JoURNal No. 48514 ABSTRACT: volUme - 8 | issUe - 8 | may - 2019 “Drones technically called as Unmanned Aircraft System( hereafter referred as ‘UAS') are a military technology now being developed for civilian and commercial use across the globe. Drone technology has grown exponentially and the law has to contend its growth. We have reached technological breakthroughs in the form of unmanned aviation as they have reached their fullest potential and ready to be implemented for civilian applications like surveillance, nuclear-biological- chemical (NBC) sensing/tracking, traffic monitoring, flood mapping, crime investigation, police, motion picture, news and media support, cargo transportation, monitoring of sensitive sites (like Fukushima nuclear catastrophe), forests fire monitoring, etc. The manned aircraft which are globally in-use may be replaced with the unmanned aircraft due to its eco-friendly nature based on less CO2 emissions, less noise pollution etc. It has been predicted by Association of Unmanned Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI) that the global market for civilian unmanned aircraft stood at US$11.3bn in 2013 and has the potential to grow to over US$140bn in the next ten years. It further stated that 80 percent of the commercial market for drones eventually will be for agricultural uses. Thus, the emerging civil drone sector across the globe has a wide application and will have a significant impact on jobs, the economy, how business is carried out and the aviation industry.
