Eight-States Free Route Airspace Project Large-Scale Real-time Simulation (North Scenario)

This report describes the Eight States Free Routes project Large Scale Simulation, North. Parts of Berlin, Copenhagen, Maastricht, Malmö, and Oslo FIR/UIR were simulated.

The simulation was part of the Free Routes Airspace concept validation, and was the first of two planned large-scale simulations where the free routes concept was validated in an environment with several ACCs involved. The simulation was based on the draft free routes operational concept, using a sectorisation developed by the first free routes fast-time simulation, and was addressing airspace design criteria, system support to controllers, entry/exit procedures. Human performance, human error and safety issues were addressed in parallel studies conducted within the framework of the free routes airspace project, using the simulation as a vehicle to provide data.
