SafeRoute Product Goals

• Meet the Operators Needs
• Allow Operational Efficiencies to be gained
• Improve Safety reduce runway incursions
• Meet Capacity Demands for 2015
• Implement first Product Release into the market
  by 2008
• SafeRoute will Improve Operational Efficiencies
  by
• Reducing Fuel Consumption
• Reducing Arrival Time
• Improving Airport Capacity
• Reducing Noise
• Reducing CO2 Emissions
• SafeRoute will Improve Safety by
• Providing Surface Situational Awareness

SafeRoute Overview

• SafeRoute is a portfolio of ADS-B In Software
  Solutions that Utilize ADS-B Out and TIS-B
  Technology for In-Cockpit Operational Functions
• These In-Cockpit Functions Improve Operational
  Efficiencies and Safety
• Efficiency Improvements
• MS (Merging Spacing) Certified July 2007
• Eliminates Need for Radar Vectors in Terminal
  Area by Providing Flight Deck Spacing Command for
  Efficient Aircraft Intervals
• CDAs (Continuous Descent Arrivals) Certified July
  2007
• Eliminate the Need for Stair Step Descents
  Reduce Pilot Throttle Commands
• CAVS (CDTI Assisted Visual Separation) Certified
  July 2007
• Extends Visual Separation Operations In Reduced
  Visibility
• ITP (In-Trail Procedures) To Be Certified July
  2009
• Improves Climb Requests When Operating In Oceanic
  Track Systems For Optimum Flight Profile as
  Aircraft Become Lighter
• Safety Improvements
• SAMM I (Surface Area Movement Management)
  Certified July 2007
• Addresses Runway Incursions by Providing Enhanced
  Surface Situational Awareness of Own Ship
  Relative to Other ADS-B equipped On-Ground
  Aircraft Vehicles

UPS received Operational Approval for SafeRoute
from the FAA on December 28th, 2007
