Briefing Outline

• Introduction to NAV CANADA• Evolution of ADS-B demand in

Canadian airspace• NAV CANADA plans for application of

ADS technology

NAV CANADA

• NAV CANADA is the non-share capital corporation providing ANS services across 18,000,000 km2 of Canadian airspace

• Over arching objectives:– Maintain a safety record in the top decile of major Air Navigation

Service Providers (ANSPs) worldwide;– Maintain ANS customer service charges, on average, in the

bottom quartile (lowest charges) of major ANSPs worldwide;– Implement and maintain a modern, cost-efficient ANS

technology platform in the top quartile of major ANSPs worldwide;

– Ensure that the growth in costs of providing air navigation services does not exceed the growth in charging units, thereby resulting in a decline in customer service charges over the long term; and

– Create a productive and fulfilling workplace environment which places NAV CANADA amongst the best employers in Canada.

2007 Annual Report

• Reduction of IFR to IFR losses of separation to .75 per 100,000 movements

• Rates reduced by $50,000,000 Cnd in 2008

• Rates are 16 percentage points below the 1999 consumer price index when rates were fully implemented

Decision to use ADS-B outin Hudson Bay

• NAV CANADA recognized need to provide surveillance services in Hudson Bay area

• Proposed possible installation of radars• Customers indicated preference for ADS-B (IATA)• ADS-B business case indicated a significant savings• July 19, 2006 – Board of Directors approved the capital

investment in ADS-B• Feb 12, 2007 – Contract awarded for ADS-B• August 2, 2007 – AIC issued announcing intention to

provide ADS-B out based separation services

Driven by customer demands

What are the ADS-B out benefits for Hudson Bay?

• Separation standards in ADS-B coverage area change from procedural to surveillance - 10 min longitudinal or 80 nm reduced to 5 nm for the 250,000 nm2 of airspace

• More opportunity for User Preferred Trajectories (UPTs)

• Advantages to 35,000 flights per year crossing this airspace, approximately 2000 individual aircraft

• Estimated $10 M in fuel savings per year and approximately 360,000 less metric tonnes of GHG emissions

• Global harmonization of performance based ATM

Expected coverage - FL350

Why stop with Hudson Bay?

• NAV CANADA ANS Plan published intentions to continue to expand ADS-B out services into other non-radar areas

• Area along the north east coast of Canada and in oceanic airspace over Greenland identified as providing a good ROI for our customers

• Board of Directors approval January 9th, 2008• International agreements being completed• System in operation by end 2009 with service

benefits expected to start accruing early in 2010

Summary

• Focus is currently on ADS-B out for non radar airspace– Hudson Bay - 2008– North shore of Canada and North Atlantic area

where NAV CANADA provides service - 2010– Examination of other airspace to the west of

Hudson Bay

• Use of existing aircraft equipage to provide near term ROI for customers

• Details available in ANS Plan and 2007 Annual report at www.navcanada.ca
