The future of aviation will have to be focused more and more around an environmentally sustainable improvement of aviation. This proposal constitutes the SESAR2020 Consortium Members’ combined response to the SESAR-W3-2020 Solutions found under the Industrial Research and Validation activities (IR) Topic 5–“Collaborative Management of TMA & Airport throughput” and under the Innovative Action (IA) SESAR-W3 Topic 6 “Integrated Runway Throughput and Terminal Efficiency (VLD-like)” as part of Very Large Scale Demonstrations (VLD). The call of these Topics 5 and 6 has been answered with a single, integrated proposal response. The proposal includes three Solutions: i. Solution track PJ37-W3-01 named "Integrated Runway Throughput and Terminal Efficiency" of Topic 06 ii. Solution track PJ37-W3-02 (Complement of PJ.07-W2-39 Collaborative framework managing delay constraints on arrivals) of Topic 5, and iii Solution track PJ37-W3-03 (Complement of PJ.01-W2-08 Dynamic E-TMA for Advanced Continuous Climb and Descent Operations and improved Arrival and Departure Operations) of Topic 5. Solution track PJ37-W3-01 will conduct a number of Real-Time Simulations (RTSs) and a Live Trial on two different operational environments one for departures and another one for arrivals, to demonstrate the benefits of the integrated TMA and runway throughput solutions; Solution track PJ37-W3-02 is a complementary activity and will perform a Validation Exercise involving Local DCB (FMP), Air space Users and an Airport Operator at CDG Aerodrome, directly contributing to the Solution data pack of Solution PJ.07-W2-39. The Solution track PJ37-W3-03 will support the PJ.01-W2-08 Solution data pack via a Real-Time Simulation of AMAN Arrival Streaming for Systemised, ideally using live trajectories, and a Shadow Mode Trial, RTSs on 3D-Departures and Optimized Descents and a study to reduce additional airborne times. The aim is to deliver a fast track towards deployment, maximize network performance by combining solutions to facilitate greener of aviation.

PEARL project aims at carrying out the SESAR performance management process, under the leadership of SESAR 3 JU. This implies to reconcile and map the performance assessments and results delivered by the R&I projects with the SESAR performance ambitions in the ATM Master Plan. To achieve this goal, PEARL Project will conduct the following activities: -A priori estimation of performance contributions from SESAR Solutions -Consolidation of performance assessments coming from SESAR Solutions to deliver PAGAR report -Provision support and guidance to Solutions through Communities of Practice (in performance domains as Operational Performance, Safety, (cyber) Security, Human Performance, Environment, CBA, Digitalisation and U-Space), as part of a Quality Assurance process -Conduct multi-SESAR Solution network impact simulations, looking for indications of cross-effects of joint deployment Complementarily, on specific request from SESAR 3 JU, PEARL project will maintain SESAR Performance Framework and related material, as well as providing support to Maturity Gates. It will also be flexible for the provision of additional ad-hoc activities, to be agreed with SESAR 3 JU.

Mobility and transportation are at the heart of our society which facilitate access to jobs, goods and services. And because air travel is one of the fastest and most progressive branches of the transportation sector it is also exposed to large visibility and strong European and worldwide pressure on sustainability. ALBATROSS is a wide scale initiative of major European aviation stakeholder groups to demonstrate how the technical and operational R&D achievements of the past years can transform the current fuel intensive aviation to an environment-friendly industry sector. To reach this goal ALBATROSS follows a holistic approach by covering all flight phases, directly involving all relevant stakeholder groups (such as Airlines, ANSPs, Network Manager, Airports and Industries) and addressing both operational and technological aspects of aviation and Air Traffic Management (ATM). The project will demonstrate the complementary of some solutions, from alternative aircraft fuel to enhanced ATM and Airspace Users operations on the ground, TMA and en-route. To foster increased flexibility and scalability the demonstrated approaches will also leverage cutting-edge technologies, such modern as air-ground connectivity means, and novel highly collaborative ATM procedures. The possibilities of implementing a “Flight with Zero waste of Fuel and CO2 emissions” will be explored and extensively demonstrated in real conditions, through a series of live trials in various European operating environments. The demonstrations will span through a period of several months and will utilize over 1000 demonstration flights, which will be supported by Air France, Novair, Lufthansa, Wizz Air and Swiss on Airbus and Boeing aircraft, 2 Airports and major ANSPs. During this effort a strong pressure will be put on objective measurability and representativeness of the results, built on systematic data collection, utilizing Big Data Analytics, Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence.
