Call
Detailed Call Description
Works related to any of the following projects will be supported:
- Performance Based Navigation (PBN Regulation)
Projects should support TMA airspace optimisation, implementing SIDS and STARS using PBN specifications, not only as an additional overlay of existing procedures, but as an integral part of the airspace re-design to increase efficiency, optimize noise footprint and/or reduce radar vectoring operations. Projects may include equipping aircraft with SBAS capable avionics and rationalising the ground navigation infrastructure without compromising safety and security.
- Datalink Services (DLS Regulation)
Projects in this domain support the deployment of avionics upgrades to resolve identified interoperability issues (e.g., avionics identified in the recommendations that EASA has issued in the SIBs related to VDF deafness). Projects may cover additional avionics updates that enable airspace users, who are already equipped with datalink avionics compliant with the DLS regulation, to take full advantage of the operational datalink service without any restriction (as, for example, the limitations imposed by the log on list). Applicants:
-
- must provide evidence that the avionics upgrades are fully interoperable with currently deployed datalink systems by all Communication Service Providers and air navigation service providers.
- Are encouraged to team up and submit a single proposal that covers several aircraft grouped and coordinated by a single coordinating entity.
- ADS-B (SPI Regulation)
Projects in this domain support the synchronised evolution of airborne and ground surveillance infrastructure aiming to enhance surveillance services by using ADS-B technology to reduce costs, improve spectrum usage and reduce risk of over interrogations.
Priority will be given to projects:
- proposed by consortia grouping air navigation providers and airspace users, including general aviation, operating within the same local environment;
- that include the decommissioning of legacy infrastructure.
Financing percentage by EU or other bodies / Level of Subsidy or Loan
- maximum 50% for the costs of studies,
- maximum 50% for the cost of works,
- maximum 70% for the costs of works in outermost regions (with the exception of the RIS and REMIB topics).
Funding will not be granted for projects mandated under Union Law, in particular relating to the single European sky legislation, whose deadline for implementation has expired by the date on which this call is published. Costs incurred after the deadlines established in the above mentioned legislation will not be eligible for funding.
