2016-2019 Changing the focus Realism and Performance Combining realistic initiatives to an overarching planning based on performance needs and customer requirements. 7 Andreas Pötzsch, CM FABEC Operations and DFS Director En-route and Approach, Madrid 07.03.2017

FABEC Lessons Learned § Common processes and firm operational steering is needed § Alignment of Local/National and FAB strategies is required when building the FAB project portfolio § Large scale airspace redesign is not the answer anymore to fast changing traffic patterns and regulatory framework (e.g. PCP IR) § Stepwise approaches instead of big bang implementations § Ensure active involvement of all stakeholders § Ensure firm commitment of all partners § Address daily OPS requirements and stay in close contact with ACC’s 8 Andreas Pötzsch, CM FABEC Operations and DFS Director En-route and Approach, Madrid 07.03.2017

FABEC: Weather induced delay MET Alliance conducts FABEC study about the impact of adverse weather conditions on ATM 16 January 2017.-; At the request of the FABEC air navigation service providers, MET Alliance, a consortium of leading European meteorological service providers, is investigating the possible effects of changes in weather behaviour on air traffic management and more generally the impact of adverse weather conditions on ATM. 16 Andreas Pötzsch, CM FABEC Operations and DFS Director En-route and Approach, Madrid 07.03.2017

From FAB‘s to European Network – Joint efforts or blaming culture in European aviation? Who is to be blamed for what? § European ATM operational performance: not as efficient as US § EC: Regulatory framework not adapted to the network requirements § FAB’s: not delivering expected performance § ANSP’s: capacity gaps and high unit rates § Airlines: not using the shortest routes § CFSP’s: technically not up-to-date to support efficient flight planning § NM: not delivering network performance § Military airspace users: blocking large parts of European airspace § Airports: not prepared for special situations (e.g. winter operation) § Unions (ANSP and Airline): frequent strikes causing major disruptions § ???: Heavy thunderstorm season 2016 25 Andreas Pötzsch, CM FABEC Operations and DFS Director En-route and Approach, Madrid 07.03.2017
