Single European Sky
Situation of ATM in Europe
European airspace is
fragmented according to
national borders rather
than traffic flows.
More than 60 Area
Control Centres in
Europe in 2003.
Single European Sky
Situation of ATM in Europe
Sectors and routes are
designed according to
national borders rather
than traffic flows.
Single European Sky
Situation of ATM in Europe
Traffic is still expected to
grow, and even to double
between 1997 and 2020.
Single European Sky
Situation of ATM in Europe
Congestion leads
to sub optimal
trajectories.
Single European Sky
Situation of ATM in Europe
The busiest routes have
to avoid military areas.
Single European Sky
Situation of ATM in Europe
Military areas are located in
the core area of Europe.
Single European Sky
Background
• The European Commission, Vice President
Ms de Palacio, launched the initiative in 1999.
• Main principles:
– Reduce fragmentation between:
• the airspace of Member States,
• civil and military providers and users,
• systems
– Introduce new technology
– Create synergy EU – Eurocontrol

•Functional airspace blocks (FAB)
•Flexible use of airspace (FUA)
•National Supervisory Authorities (NSA)/Designation
•(certification ANSP)
•ATCO-licence
•Interoperability
•SESAME

Single European Sky
Reorganisation of the Airspace - EUIR
• Establishment of an European Upper Information
Region (EUIR) by merging all UIRs controlled by
European Member States above FL 285 and within
the EUR and AFI ICAO regions.
• Shall be negotiated and agreed within ICAO.
• Possibility to extend to airspace outside the EUR
and AFI ICAO regions (choice of MS).
Single European Sky
Reorganisation of the Airspace - EUIR
Single European Sky
Reorganisation of the Airspace - FAB
• Establishment of Functional Airspace Blocks (FAB)
in the upper (and possibly lower) airspace.
• Objectives:
–
–
–
–
–
Reduce fragmentation,
Take into account traffic flows and not national borders,
Increase co-operation,
Increase harmonisation,
Provide efficiency gains.
Single European Sky
Reorganisation of the Airspace - FAB
MS to develop FABs according to 7 criteria:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
safety case;
optimum use of airspace, taking into account air traffic flows;
overall added value, including optimal use of technical and human
resources, on the basis of cost-benefit analyses;
ensure a fluent and flexible transfer of responsibility for ATC;
ensure compatibility between upper and lower airspace;
comply with regional agreements concluded within ICAO;
respect regional agreements, in particular those involving European
third countries.
Single European Sky
Reorganisation of the Airspace - FAB
• Bottom-up approach:
– MS are fully responsible to initiate and set-up FABs,
– FABs can include all or parts of a State’s Airspace,
– For multinational FABs, all States involved must agree
on the respective FAB,
• No single “blueprint” for FABs, we expect different
models to be implemented.
• But, these FABs shall meet the 7 general criteria of
the regulation.
Single European Sky
Reorganisation of the Airspace - FAB
• Based on the experience of States/ANSPs when
setting up FABs, the Commission will develop
binding general principles for establishment and
modification of FABs;
• The extension of FABs to lower airspace (below FL
285) will be studied by the Commission before the
end of 2006;
• The Commission will review the functioning of the
bottom-up approach by early 2009 and propose
additional measures, if necessary.
Single European Sky
Reorganisation of the Airspace - FUA
• Flexible Use of Airspace (FUA):
– Support civil/military co-operation within FABs and
between different FABs,
– Establishes mandatory rules and criteria for application
of FUA,
– Harmonizes conditions of access and freedom of
movement within the airspace.
– Civil/military coordination in airspace management and
air traffic management.
– Regional/cross-border application of FUA.
Single European Sky
NSA
• Establishment or nomination of National
Supervisory Authorities since 20 April 2004.
• Requirements:
– (At least) functional separation from ANSP.
– Impartiality and transparency
– Capabilities:
• Technical expertise,
• Sufficient manpower,
• Sufficient financial resources.
Single European Sky
NSA
• NSA need to co-operate. They can be
established at regional level.
• Tasks:
–
–
–
–
Certification of ANSPs,
Compliance monitoring,
(poss.) role in designation process
safeguarding role re declarations of
conformity/suitability/verification under interoperability
regulation .
• Future: which role for EASA?
Single European Sky
Interoperability
• Objective and scope:
– Interoperability between the different systems, their
constituents and associated procedures of the
European ATM network,
– Coordinated introduction of new agreed and validated
concepts of operations or technology.
• Three different tools:
– Essential requirements.
– Implementing rules.
– Community specifications.
Single European Sky
Interoperability
• Essential requirements:
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
Seamless operation,
Safety,
Civil-military coordination,
Support of new concepts of operation,
Environmental constraints,
Principles governing the logical architecture,
Principles governing the construction of systems.
Essential requirements are compulsory
(Annex II of interoperability regulation).
Single European Sky
Interoperability
• Implementing rules:
– Shall determine any specific requirement that
complements or refine the Essential Requirements,
– Shall also describe the coordinated introduction of new,
agreed and validated concepts of operation or
technology.
Implementing rules are compulsory
(prepared by Eurocontrol and adopted by
EU-Commission).
Single European Sky
Interoperability
• Community specifications are means of
compliance
European Standards
(drawn up by CEN/CENELEC/ETSI in cooperation with EUROCAE)
or
Eurocontrol specification
(for operational coordination)
(Systems, procedures and constituents which meet
Community specifications are presumed compliant with
mandatory rules)
Single European Sky
SESAME
SESAME is the Single European Sky
Implementation Programme to modernise ATC
infrastructure.
Synchronises the implementation of new
equipment in the EU by ensuring that airborne
equipment is consistent with ground technology.
Initialised
by
ATM
equipment
manufacturers, it is now supported by the
whole air transport community.
Single European Sky
Why SESAME?
Traffic will more than
double by 2025!

ATM is still using ageing
technology from 70s,
even 50s with virtually no
automation at all

Undertaking:
• Separate legal entity
• Community and other parties (public and private)
can be members
• Eurocontrol is proposed to be a founding
member, together with the Community
• Oversight by Member States through the Single

Single European Sky
Relations with third countries
• The full potential of the SES (“seamless operation”) will only
be reached by enlarging its scope
• “The Community shall aim at and support the extension of
the SES to countries which are not members of the EU. To
that end, it shall endeavour, either within the framework of
agreements concluded with neighbouring third countries, or
within the context of Eurocontrol, to extend the scope of this
Regulation to those countries”.
(Article 7 of the Framework regulation)
