EUROCONTROL Centralised Services 2

Why do we need Centralised Services?

Europe needs to be competitive again!

a more competitive European ATM is an important enabler for a more competitive European Aviation environment

The goal to be achieved: controlled flight hour for significant less cost (one controlled flight hour in the US currently costs around half of what it does in Europe) – see the US/Europe Comparison of ATM-related Operational Performance

4 D Trajectory Flight Profile Calculation forPlanning Purposes Service (4DPP)

Provide a central reference for the 4D Trajectory Profile for all ATM planning activities with an increased accuracy, allowing reduction of buffers around airspace occupancy, reducing under- / over delivery.

Centrally processed 4D trajectory.

Distribute the calculation to the ANSPs/Centres.

Making full use of existing sector capacities.

Technology exists already in some Member States.

Replaces EUROCONTROL/NM legacy system.

Supports fostering of innovative technologies - as this will be the first centralised 4 D Trajectory system in the world.
