Title: FlexiGuide - flexible ATM in the E-TMA to reduce environmental impacts
Abstract: Within the DLR project flexiGuide, an operational concept was developed and validated for the transition from current operating procedures towards time based operations in the extended terminal manoeuvring area (E-TMA). This transition will be possible at some point in the future due to the evolution of aircraft equipment. With the help of simulations we show that using this advanced equipage and time based arrival management, an optimized traffic flow even at peak traffic times at larger airports can be implemented which cuts fuel consumption, flight time, and aircraft noise. The concept makes use of a combination of modern 4D flight management systems, data link connections, optimized approach routes and procedures, and a broad sequence planning and trajectory negotiation support for arrival, departure, and ground controller.
