Call
Detailed Call Description
To successfully address the expected outcomes, all or some of the following sub-R&I needs should be addressed:
- Formation flight demonstrators
- Integrated 4D for green trajectories
- Satellite-based innovation for green trajectories
- Green approaches through second runway aiming point and increased glide-slope concepts
- Green approaches through GNSS as primary navigation means with reversion scenario in operational Environment
- Green approaches through improved speed and aircraft configuration management on arrival
- Green climb-via and descend-via procedures including descent-via with re-cruise options
- Initial ATN B2 datalink green trajectory revision concepts
- TBO for green trajectories in the planning phase (FF-ICE 1)
- Green taxiing
- Integrated ATM/apron management for green surface management
- Aviation-induced cloudiness (AIC) data collection and analysis
(see page 15-18 of the call document)
The demonstrators shall be closely connected to the standardisation and regulatory activities. Early engagement with the regulator during the demonstration process can significantly de-risk subsequent issues related to regulatory needs, approvals, safety assessments etc. for the SESAR solutions under scope. With this in mind EASA and/or NSA involvement through the partners shall be envisaged at the level of advising on the suitability of the safety assessments as well as risk and hazard identification and mitigation approaches required for the solution. The potential need for future rulemaking to support the eventual implementation of the solution shall be identified along with the development of standards through the EUROCAE process. The work of the project shall then be appropriately focused on delivering the material that could form the basis for this standardisation and regulatory development.
The proposed topic will require the contribution from Airspace Users (AUs). It is expected that the proposals will therefore include the required AU contribution.
Financing percentage by EU or other bodies / Level of Subsidy or Loan
The costs will be reimbursed at the funding rates fixed in the Grant Agreement (maximum 50% for the costs of studies, maximum 70% for the costs of works in outermost regions (not applicable for projects related to ‘removing interoperability barriers’ and ‘RIS’) and maximum 50% for all other costs categories (‘project funding rate’).
EU-contribution per proposal: € 15 million
