Aircraft Performance Model

The BADA (Base of Aircraft Data) aircraft performance database is a long-established and externally-recognised activity established and managed by the EEC. Apart from its use within the EUROCONTROL organisation, access to the data files is also given to a number of ATC research and commercial organisations working in the domain of ATM (approximately 70 registered users of the current version 3.6).

BADA is used in various ATM applications to simulate aircraft in real-time air traffic simulations and for ground-based trajectory prediction, covering 295 aircraft types, which equates to 99.2% of the European air traffic.

The main objective of this work package therefore is to maintain and further develop the data and aircraft performance models, which are necessary and suitable for aircraft trajectory calculation and prediction within ATC simulations, environmental assessment and operational applications.

These activities are carried out in co-operation with BADA users, airframe and engine manufacturers and the ATM supply industry.
