Operation Trial

Phase 1: Distributed ATFM for Airport Arrival Constraints (Jun 2015 – Jun 2016)

Stage 1: CTOT Communications (Jun – Sep 2015)Ensure proper CTOT communication flow among ATFM Nodes and stakeholders

Stage 2: CTOT Adherence (Oct 2015 – Jan 2016)Initial ATFM operations under scripted scenarios with provisions of addressing ad-hoc demand-capacity imbalance

Stage 3: Advanced CTOT Management (Feb – Jun 2016)More complex ATFM operations including CTOT revisions, cancellation and improvements

Phase 2: More Advanced Distributed ATFM- Consider airspace constraints

Objectives

Validate the multi-nodal ATFM concept Establish information sharing and

communication mechanism Establish common business rules for

ANSPs, Airport and Airline Operators Identify the requirements of systems to

support the ATFM operation Identify the capabilities required for

stakeholders to participate in the operation


24

ICAO ATFM/SG

ATFM/SG Decision 4/1: Asia Pacific Regional ATFM Concept of Operations and timeline:That, the Asia Pacific Air Traffic Flow Management Steering Group:

• Adopts the Multi Nodal ATFM Concept of Operations as the foundation for the Regional Concept of Operations/Implementation strategy for regional cross border ATFM implementation; and

• Confirms 8 November 2018 as the target date for regional cross border ATFM implementation, for inclusion in the performance objectives of the Regional Framework for Collaborative ATFM, in alignment with ASBU and the APAC Seamless ATM Plan.


25

The Way Forward

The outcome may be a good reference for other administrations in the region

The model could be a solution to address EATMCG Task List Item 7-1,which also align with ICAO ATFM SG decision.

Once the multi-nodal ATFM operational procedures are sufficiently refined, Hong Kong would like to invite the ANSPs in North East Asia to gradually progress in the same direction.
