  9. NEWARK LIBERTY AIRPORT LOCAL AREA AUGMENTATION SYSTEM OPERATIONAL DEMONSTRATION

  10. Purpose Demonstrate Local Area Augmentation System (LAAS) operational capabilities in a complex airspace • Combine on-board RNAV/RNP functionality (e.g. multimode receiver) with LAAS improved straight-in and curved path capabilities for approach & landing to all runway ends • Tool to solve airspace congestion issues • Build user base - controller & pilot operational experience • Reduce airspace separation between current New York Area Airports for more independent operations, including closely spaced parallel runways • “Lessons Learned” may be applied in the New York and Eastern Seaboard area, potentially to other locations

  11. Overview • Government Industry Partnership • Federal Aviation Administration • The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey • Continental Airlines (multiple B737-800 NG aircraft) • Honeywell (ground system) • Boeing • Aircraft technical integration • Assist with procedure development (Jeppesen) • Single LAAS unit installed at Newark Airport • Serve multiple runway ends at that airport • Could replace multiple ILS facilities • 48 distinct precision and complex approach procedures
