“ASAS, a Reality Check”

4th

Workshop, Amsterdam, 23 - 25 April 2007

ASAS-TN2 objective

To accelerate the implementation of ASAS applications in European Airspace, taking into account global applicability, in order to increase airspace capacity and safety.

Workshop, Amsterdam, 23 - 25 April 2007

Are we satisfied with the progress and current maturity of the ASAS applications?

Will the RFG be able to extend its work to Package 2 and beyond?

Key issues for this workshop and beyond

Key issues for this workshop and beyond

Do we have a good ADS-B implementation programme in Europe which is compatible with those in the US, Australia and elsewhere and is up to the requirements for ASAS?

Is ASAS correctly positioned in SESAR and Next Gen?

New airborne separation standards?

Workshop, Amsterdam, 23 - 25 April 2007

SESAR and NextGen

Both describe ASAS applications for spacing, sequencing and merging, and for cooperative separation.Self-separation is considered in both, but only for 2020 and beyond, and without the emphasis I believe it deserves.If a man was placed on the moon a mere 8 years after the goal was set, could we not achieve self-separation in 18 years (2025) if we really set our minds to it?You must go and see NLR’s GRACE simulation, it is very impressive.
