That is not to say that they weren’t already
active in this arena, but this is a very highprofi

tackling this from a variety of directions,
using both face-to-face and distance-learning
techniques. It has e-learning courses,
available from the EUROCONTROL website,
but also undertakes a number of classroom
courses every year from its Institute of Air
Navigation Services in Luxembourg. Since
the classes were started, more than 100 students
have passed through the syllabus.
The classes are open to a very wide
range of applicants and have already been
attended by representatives from ANSPs,
civil aviation authorities, the military, airlines
and departments of transport, as well as
research institutes. Once accepted on the
course, the students are made aware of how
they personally can make an impact on the
environment by, for example, initiating an
environment impact assessment at their
own organisations or setting up an internal
group to start looking at where environmental
improvements could be made.
Andrew Watt is very modest about
his team’s very tangible progress and is
reluctant to take any plaudits: “It is very
much a team eff ort and everybody right
across the industry has to do their bit. EUROCONTROL
is here to provide help, not to
take the glory.”
GE Aviation
From a legacy of leadership comes
the future of Air Traffi c Management.
GE Aviation is applying its long history of innovation and experience beyond the engine. With products
like the TrueCourse™ Flight Management System, GE is enabling crews to optimize fl ights from takeoff to
landing. TrueCourse can simultaneously increase fuel effi ciency and reduce emissions and community noise.
And with the recent addition of Naverus Performance-based Navigation solutions, GE Aviation Systems is
enhancing its portfolio to make the future of air traffi c management safer, more effi cient and sustainable.

out how EUROCONTROL is helping to increase their usage

WITH INCREASING NUMBERS of Europe’s
airlines, airports and air navigation service
providers (ANSPs) starting to implement
Continuous Descent Approaches (CDAs), the
role of EUROCONTROL as the pivotal CDA
enabler throughout the continent is growing
almost every day.
Currently, there are 22 European airports
that have published requirements for CDA
approaches; nine airports with CDA implementation
trials in progress; more than 50
others that have committed to investigate
CDA feasibility; and 18 ANSPs or airports
who have already agreed to host a EUROCONTROL
CDA Implementation Team presentation
or workshop by the end of 2010.
The potential benefi ts of CDAs have been
known for some time (see sidebar on page
145) and after several operational trials in
recent years, these benefi ts have now been
quantifi ed in more detail.
EUROCONTROL’s plan is to support stakeholders
to implement as many CDA arrivals
as possible. The Agency’s implementation
philosophy is that although aircraft and
pilots are presently capable of consistently
fl ying sophisticated CDA profi les in lowdensity
traffi c scenarios – such as the automated
approaches that have been trialled
at Stockholm/Arlanda, linking the aircraft’s
fl ight management system to the controller’s
computer to produce an optimised CDA
profi le – it is also possible to implement
simple facilitation of CDA, even in busy, complex
