Introduction and Background
Introduction and Background
Airspace Management of FUA resides within the CAMU
Implementation of FUA – The flexible use of airspace concept originated to enhance civil-military co-operation and co-ordination.
Flexible use of Airspace is an airspace management concept, based on the principle that airspace should no longer be designated as purely “civil” or “military”, but allocated according to the user requirements.
The units responsibility will include the management of airspace as per user requirements, catering for military exercise, special events and unusual events and any other activity which might require the use of airspace for a particular time period.
Relevant Documentation for CDM Client
Relevant Documentation for CDM Clients
Flexible Use of Airspace is explained and documented in:
RSA AIP GEN 3.3.8
ATNS Website (www.atns.co.za) on CAMU page
Concept and
FUA Timeline
Concept and FUA Timeline
The Flexible Use of Airspace (FUA) Concept has been developed at the three Levels of Airspace Management that correspond to Civil/Military co-ordination task.
STRATEGIC COMPONENTLong term planning – large scale military exercises,
significant changes to airspace and route structure and special events. This includes but is not limited to Airshows, Fly-Inns, Competitions, etc. 70 Day requirement (AIP).
Concept and FUA Timeline
PRE-TACTICAL COMPONENTAirspace users engaged in normal operations e.g.: Aerial Surveys, Para Drop, Fly Past – 48 hours requirement.
TACTICAL COMPONENTDay to day flight operation. Requirement of 7 operational hours.
Why is FUA Required?
Why is FUA required?
To ensure all stakeholders affected have full understanding of operations and requirements. ATC-Military-SACAA-Clients.
To ensure airspace users have sufficient notice of operations via NOTAMs / Supplements.
Air traffic planning, efficient flow of air traffic.
Equal airspace usage.

Issues relating to the improvement of the CDM process
There have been critical issues identified which has needed to be resolved by means of proper CDM. Some of these issues have been resolved as noted below:
FUA Education: Both the public and aviation industry need to be educated on
FUA. Road Shows have been conducted to address this matter with the aviation industry. We are in the process of populating a user guide for the general public on FUA.
ATSU Response TimeAn LOA (Letter of Agreement) has been signed at each ATSU
allowing for better response time of FUA to client.CDM Courses and Training
IATA has made provision for a CDM Course which is beneficial in assisting the CAMU in Airport CDM (AMC) and the aviation industry.
Common Efforts
Military participation at civilian ATM Meetings and in ATC Centers would often lead to a better understanding of civil needs and vice versa: military should consider including their counterparts in their meetings.
Data sharing between the civil and military can also expedite Collaborative Decision Making (CDM), a vital component of Air Traffic Flow Management (ATFM).
