The Idea• ANSP individual roadmap for SES policies implementation
– Network improvement– DCTs– Free Route Airspace
• History of good cooperation between the two ANSPs– Main corridors for the South‐East air traffic flows– Areas with delegated ATS– Coordination of DCTs for common interface
The Idea
Autumn 2015, Graz meeting• agreement to join forces and implement unconstrained X‐Border FRA without infringing existing safety and capacity values.First
• H24• CROSS‐BORDER• GND‐FL660 / USB • Free Route Airspace

SAXFRA– LAL polygons common AIP chart
Lowest available level represents an analogy to minimum en‐route altitude (MEA) and ensures:
‐ adequate reception of relevant navigation facilities
‐ two‐way communication with ATS
‐ complies with the airspace structure (class)
‐ provides the required obstacle clearance
FRA – balconies
Part of ATS environment are also portions of airspace withdelegated air traffic services.
Such areas on one side allow safe and efficient traffic flowsmanagement, but can be complex to interpret within FPL systemswhen different concepts are applied (FRA<‐>ATS routes)

Valuable know‐how from NM• solution provided• 3 prevalidations• fine‐tuning
Alongside SAXFRA
• ARR and DEP profiles improved (ANSPs LoA)
• Operational procedures revised and simplified
• SID/STAR adapted to support FRA
• No major upgrades of ATM Systems (costs for users)
• Without regulations on implementation – no delays
• Period of adaptation with lower capacity – not needed
SAXFRA – pillars of success
• Excellent cooperation and sharing of know‐how ANSPs
• Successful brainstorming and coordination with NM
• Common approach to FHA with NSA briefings
• Open and constant communication with Users
• Encouraging positive view amongst ATCO community
