Global Air Navigation Industry Symposium 20-23 September 2011
16 November 2012
Block 0: Capabilities within our grasp overview
 Improved airport accessibility – using Performancebased Navigation (PBN)
 Improved flexibility and efficiency in descent
profiles – Continuous Descent Operations (CDO)
 Improved flexibility and efficiency in departure
profiles – Continuous Climb Operations (CCO)

PBN
 PBN is today and we have to implement
now:




Main enabler for runway safety
Increase accessibility of airports
Increase of airspace efficiency
Environmental solutions (noise and emissions)
 PBN is the key building block for next
generation airspace concepts (SESAR,
NextGen, CARATS, etc.)

CDO and CCO
 CDO and CCO provide
significant benefits in terms of:
 Fuel burn reduction
 Gaseous emissions reduction
 Noise reduction
 CDO and CCO enabled by
Performance-based
Navigation

Continuous Descent Operations (CDOs)
 Save fuel 125-1400 lbs
 Up to 40% less noise
 Reduced radio transmissions
 Lower pilot workload
 Reduced hearback / readback errors

Beyond Planning…
ICAO and its partners are already addressing roll-out of PBN and
associated airspace design features such as CDO and CCO.
But assistance and full support from all our
aviation stakeholders is needed.

Final remarks
 Capabilities with in our grasp. Don’t let it slip through your
fingers….
 PBN is the key stepping stone and affects all corners.
 In order to create a sound basis for the future of our air
navigation system we all need to contribute
 Starting now.
