A SEC0ND PACKAGE 0F SES LEGISLATI0N
Massively increased demand is strain¬ing infrastructure capacity, with 28,000
daily flights by 4,700 commercial aircraft pushing airports and ATM to the limits. Accordingly, EC officials have identified several issues that the second set of SES
legislation (SES II) proposals must address:
ATM fragmentation (hindering optimal capacity use and imposing unnecessary financial burdens);
? the need for improved safety require
ments (matching increased traffic);
? increasing environmental awareness (necessitating demonstration of avia¬tion's 'green' performance).
The European Commission proposes:
? sharper legislation to address perfor¬mance and environmental challenges;
? the SES ATM Research (SESAR) techni¬cal and industrial programme should provide required technology; EASA competence should be extended to aerodromes, ATM, and air-navigation services;
? the 2006 airport capacity, efficiency,
and safety action plan should be implemented.
'SES I' has not achieved expected
results in important areas, says the EC. For example, integration within func¬tional airspace blocks (FABs), regardless of national borders "encountered numerous hurdles, in particular political and eco
nomic obstacles". By mistakenly identifying Air Traffic Control (ATC) with sovereignty, some countries have resisted cross-border airspace integration, even while accepting loss of ground borders under the Schen¬gen Agreement. "Member States have not taken steps to improve cost-efficiency. Hardly any progress is evident in the overall efficiency of the European air network."
ATM fragmentation has several con¬sequences. Many of Europe's 60-odd area-control centres are below optimal
economic size, says the EC. "Unsynchro¬nised adoption of technological change and piecemeal procurement" leads to sys¬tems duplication and high maintenance and contingency costs for equipment that is "not interoperable". Costs of research, training and administration are "dispro¬portionately high" and fragmentation costs €1 billion/year.
In addition, officials say that ATM near airports is arranged on a first-come, first-served basis, generating inconsistency between airport and ATM operations. Since airport slots are allocated indepen¬dently from flight plans, there is unnec¬essary noise and emissions. Improving ATM and airport operations could reduce emissions by an average of 7-12 per cent, or 16 million tonnes of C02 per year.
In 2008, the EC proposed its second package of SES measures to address what it regards as the unnecessary cost paid in time, fuel consumption and money by airspace users and travellers for system inefficiencies "SES II provides a new impetus that will permit faster progress," says Bernard Miaillier, CND Deputy Director for SESAR Contribution, EUR0C0NTR0L.
THE F0UR PILLARS 0F SES II
SES II proposals comprise four pillars covering performance regulation, har¬monised safety rules, improved technol¬ogy and airport-capacity management. Adequate performance will be achieved only through regulation, says Miaillier.
First, the EC wants to see performance targets, integrated service provision within FABs, and stronger network management as a way to "strengthen existing instru¬ments and provide a regulatory frame¬work". It is particularly keen to see current FAB initiatives turned into "genuine instru¬ments of regional integration".
Second: "Continuous growth of air traf¬fic in Europe, induced capacity limitations, airspace and aerodrome [congestion
and] progressive use of new technologies require a common European approach for harmonised development [and effec
tive implementation] of regulations to maintain or even improve safety. The EC
