Recommendations for ANSPs and airports


1. Meeting National Authority • Establish regular coordination and planning

• Set the implementation project team

• Define the objectives and scope

• Make a first preliminary assessment

• Review existing regulation and guidance

Plan 1 to 3 months

Set an appointment well in advance

Duration

Costs NA

ESSP support to LPV implementationRecommendations for ANSPs and airports


1. Meeting National Authority

2. Airport Capabilities Assess.

• Define CAA requirements

• Airport characterization:

• Navaids (missed APCH)

• CNS (radar)

• ATC/AFIS/No ATC

• Meteo

• Airspace (un/controlled, SID/STAR, etc)

• Infrastructure (lighting, strips, etc)

• Traffic and a/c capabilities

1 to 2 months Duration

Costs NA (subcontract)





3. Procedure Design

• Obstacle site survey (update)

• Usually the design is performed by ANSP o Pans Ops 8168 Vol II, Part III; o Annex 14 Vol I; o ICAO 9906 Vol II

• Possibility to subcontract third parties like surveyors, procedure designers or other ANSPs

• Preliminary approval by CAA sometimes req.

2 to 3 months + NSA approvalDuration

Costs 15 – 30k€ for 2 RWY ends





3. Procedure Design

4. Flight Validation

• Ground validation

• Independent review of procedure design package

• GNSS SIS assessment (optional) + interferences

• Procedure impact in operations

• Flight validation (need for FAS DB)

• Obstacles (identification of new ones)

• Navigation data

• Fly-ability (pilot workload)

1 to 3 months Duration

Costs 5 to 40k€





3. Procedure Design


5. Safety Assessment

• CONOPS, EC 2096/2005 and EC 1315/2007

• Eurocontrol Methodology SAM:

• Functional Hazard Assessment (FHA)

• Preliminary System Safety Assessment (PSSA)

• System Safety Assessment (SSA)

2 to 6 monthsDuration

Costs 10 to 40k€





3. Procedure Design



6. Procedure Approval

• Need for EWA (plan in advance)

• Re-visit:

• Safety assessment

• Procedure design

• Flight validation


Costs 2 – 4k€





3. Procedure Design




7. ATCO Training

• Core training

• RNAV concept

• Performances, GPS, RAIM…

• Flight plan

• ATC procedures

• Contingency procedures, separation minima, mixed equipage, phraseology

• Specific to RNP

• Radar vectoring, APCH minima, T&Y…


Costs 10 to 20k€

CS-25, etc• Agreeing the compliance summary, e.g. EASA

AMC 20-28• Timeline of deliverables


Costs NA (subcontracting)
