We are keen to assist our Member States' efforts in implementing performance-based navigation (PBN) in accordance with the Pilot Common Project Implementation Regulation (PCP IR EU 716/2014) and the European Commission's Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1048 of 18 July 2018 laying down airspace usage requirements and operating procedures concerning performance-based navigation (PBN).
As part of our support to optimise and rationalise navigation infrastructure, our portal's insights and tools help the collaboration between air navigation service providers (ANSPs), national authorities, airspace planners, procedure designers, engineers, flight inspectors and airspace users.
We support:
- airspace designers to balance and trade off requirements of the airspace concept;
- procedure designers to ensure that any instrument flight procedure is designed in accordance with harmonised best practices. ;
- environmental stakeholders to influence the route placement, ensuring that noise, emissions and visual intrusion are mitigated to the maximum extent possible;
- airport operators to improving airport access;
- airspace users to provide key aircraft performance inputs to the airspace design process, as well as their business continuity requirements be this civil, military, commercial or general aviation.
