ADS-BTomorrow is Already Here

• Captain Bob Hilb UPS
  Airlines/Cargo Airline Association

2
The Problem

• Overcoming capacity constraints while improving
  Safety REQUIRES
• A transition from procedures based control to
  technology based distributed redundant air
  traffic management

3
ADS-B The Enabler

• Traffic information displayed to controllers and
  pilots
• Flexible
• Inexpensive
• Simple
• With moving maps in the air and on the surface
  providing unparalleled situational awareness

4
Cockpit Display of Traffic Information (CDTI)

ADS-B Capacity and Safety

• Key to Capacity
• Right tool to do the job
• Right person doing the job
• Key to Safety
• Redundancy

6
ADS-B and Capacity

• July 1999 - Operational Evaluation Wilmington,
  Ohio
• Demonstration of air-air capabilities
• Pilots maintained precise spacing in traffic
  pattern
• Planned 95 approaches - completed 217
• Approach Spacing
• Engaging controllers will enhance terminal area
  operations even more

ADS-B and Capacity

• Improved departure spacing
• Pilot managed departure sequence
• Decreased separation in oceanic and non-radar
  airspace - 60 miles down to 15?
• Decreased and predictable taxi times in low
  visibility
• Closely spaced parallel operations - MSP, DTW, SFO

ADS-B and Safety

• Tenerife
• Quincy
• St. Louis
• Detroit
• Chicago
• Providence
• PREVENTABLE!

10
ADS-B and Safety

• Eliminate runway incursion
• Safe taxi in low visibility
• Improved emergency response
• Superior surveillance in hostile geography
• Strategic conflict detection and resolution

11
Display Problem

• Current Location Forward Pedestal
• Map, Terrain, Weather, CPDLC
• Early Applications
• Future Primary Field of View
• CSPA, Paired Approach
• Upgrade Symbol Generators
• Smart Display
• Next Generation Aircraft

12
The Challenge

• Break out of the radar paradigm
• Focus on implementation
• It Only Takes
  Will, Leadership, Partnership

13
Industry Contribution

• 30 Million
• 12 Aircraft in 1999
• 10 fully equipped, additional 80 wired and ready
  for displays in 2000
• Committed to an additional 125 in 2001
• Working on achievable set of applications in
  2000/2001 - surface and terminal area

14
FAA Contribution

• Safe Flight 21 - 10 million in FY00
• Asking for 30 million in FY01
• Capstone Alaska and Ohio Valley
• All Work Leads to Implementation!
• Not an R D Project!
