PBN development in France • Introduction Situation in a pre-PBN context • DGAC adherence to the PBN applications • Future developments to be considered • Conclusion
PBN development in France • Introduction (1/3) • Development of RNAV procedures based on operational needs but, sometimes, not fully standardised principles • Implementation of RNAV procedures in Paris TMA (since 1992 with RWY28 eastbound SIDs in Charles de Gaulle… MOSUD arrival in 1997…DOMUS and VASPO arrivals) • Reinforcement of RNAV procedures in Paris TMA in 2001 (predicated on “B-RNAV+”), then in Montpellier, Lyon.

PBN development in France • Introduction (3/3) • Procedures developed as “B-RNAV+” applications • BRNAV + additional requirements (temporary provisions included in AIP GEN 1.5-2 and ENR 1.5-4/ October 2001), • « B-RNAV+ » procedures must be above MRVA and developed in a radar environment • Operational directive issued by our flights standards (N° 2001/1 5 September 2001) wrt « Basic Area navigation (B-RNAV) in terminal area». • Regulatory framework well defined... But French • In order to prevent this kind of situation, integrated initiative driven by Eurocontrol for standardisation of RNAV in TMA • The PBN offers a general, global and awaited standardisation for RNAV operations
PBN development in France • DGAC adherence to the PBN applications (1/7) – En-route and TMA • En-route : RNAV 5 (B-RNAV) • One of the applications described and standardised a long time ago • B-RNAV in ECAC since 23d April 1998 (FL245 then FL115 in France) • Great benefits provided extension questioned • TMA : RNAV 1 (P-RNAV) • Safety (harmonisation being one of the objectives) • Noise abatement…

PBN development in France • DGAC adherence to the PBN applications (3/7) – En-route and TMA • Approach • French decree dated July, 24th, 2007 already refers PBN applications (RNP 4, Basic-RNP 1, RNP APCH and RNP AR APCH, RNAV 10, RNAV 5, RNAV 1 and 2). • Once AMC20-16 available, transition to PBN terms • Implementation plans (AIC) :

PBN development in France • DGAC adherence to the PBN applications (5/7) – Approach • RNP APCH • Published procedures • Saint Pierre RWY08 et RWY26 • Lyon-Bron RWY12 • Lille-Lesquin RWY08 • Cayenne RWY08 et 26 • Limoges RWY04 • Brest RWY08 • Hyeres RWY05 • Melun RWY29 • Biarritz RWY09 • Calvi RWY18 • Procedures being or yet studied (to be published) • Perpignan RWY15 - Fort de France RWY27 et 09… • Besançon (Hélicopters) - Clermont-Ferrand RWY26 • Saint Denis Gillot RWY12 et 30 - Deauville RWY12 • Saint Pierre Pierrefonds RWY15 • Nuku Hiva • Tikehau • Rangiroa • Pointe-à-Pitre le Raizet RWY29 • Figari RWY23 et 05
PBN development in France • DGAC adherence to the PBN applications (6/7) – Approach • Other developments foreseen : RNP APCH with baro VNAV and RNP AR • RNP APCH with baro VNAV : • implication of DCS (Flight standards) in the development of the future Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC 20 XX) • Revision of the vertical navigation performance specification of the PBN possibly needed • ESARR 4 compliant safety case to be concluded this year by Eurocontrol? • Working group to begin studies with DCS and DAST (regulator) after validation of the French ANSP, DSNA, of its involvement for this application • In line with the European Convergence Implementation Plan (ECIP) and navigation strategy • RNP AR Flight Operational Safety Assessment under the auspices of Eurocontrol • DGAC, Eurocontrol, Air France, Airbus, Thales involved • Objective is to demonstrate the TLS • Perform an overall analysis : aircraft + crew procedures + design • Analysis will focus on Normal, abnormal procedures, aircraft outages (FMS, A/P…), possible crew errors (altimeter setting), infrastructure outages,…
PBN development in France • DGAC adherence to the PBN applications (7/7) – Approach • Other developments foreseen : RNP APCH with baro VNAV and RNP AR • RNP APCH with baro VNAV : Bastia as the assessment aerodrome (Current procedure below)
PBN development in France • Future developments to be considered (1/1) • Other developments will be necessary • PBN to standardise GNSS approaches with vertical guidance • APV/SBAS based on EGNOS of particular interest for France • Systematic publication of APV/EGNOS approaches where RNP APCH are or are to be implemented (ECIP objective) • Very important in a the challenging context of the 36th ICAO assembly decisions (July 2007) “all instrument runway ends should have an approach procedure with vertical guidance (APV), either as the primary approach or as a back-up for precision approaches by 2016 with intermediate milestones as follows: 30 per cent by 2010, 70 per cent by 2014.”
PBN development in France • Conclusion • DGAC in line with the will to standardise RNAV applications through the PBN • PBN implementation plan in place by 2009 • Some PBN applications already implemented • Consistent with Eurocontrol navigation strategy • DGAC, through its experts, to support future developments of PBN
