Presenters
Christina Recascino – Vice President for Research, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University
Douglas Sweigard – Senior Program Manager, Aviation Programs, Lockheed Martin Co.
Wade Lester – Director of NextGen Research, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University
Integrated Airport: The History
• Nearly 800 million passengers fly each year• On 789,000 flights• Logging more than 60 billion miles• On planes who have an average load capacity
of 80%
History
• Problems abound in the air transportation system– Fewer On-time arrivals– Mechanical delays– Weather delays– Lost luggage– Near mid-air collisions– Incursions– Gate to Gate delays– Fatal Mishaps
NextGen
• To modernize the air management system in the United States, the JPDO was created to spearhead the NextGen movement
• In 2005, ERAU and Lockheed Martin began discussions of setting up a University-Private-Public partnership whose mission was to tackle issues related to testing and implementation of NextGen concepts
The Integrated Airport was born
• Mission: Accelerate NextGen through technology demonstrations that integrate near-term NextGen enhancements
• Embry-Riddle and Lockheed Martin are the lead partners in the Integrated Airport Consortium
• Joined by:CSC

Overview of Consortium
• Creation of non-binding MOU that all partners sign
• Agree to work on projects related to NextGen – as decided by planning group
• Companies are required to contribute IRAD funds
Accomplishments
• 2007 Establishment of NextGen Testbed at Daytona Beach International Airport and opening demonstration
• 2008 First technical demonstration creating an AWIM and data sharing across partner systems
• 2008 Received $2 million in federal support through the FAA to support the testbed and engage in NextGen demonstration – Predictive Weather Integrated into the TMA systems using a SWIM platform
Present and Future
• 2008 Established a contractual agreement with the FAA through Embry-Riddle
• Funding goes to consortium for technology demonstrations that accelerate NextGen concepts, as contracted by the FAA
• Goal is demonstration and evaluation of concepts providing information to the FAA that can lead to implementation
Future Plans
• March 11, 2009– Next demonstration focuses on International
Flight Data Object Sharing
• 2009 and forward– Working with the FAA to establish the next sets of
demo for 2009 and 2010

FAA’s NextGen Implementation Plan Makes the Vision Happen
Trajectory-Based Ops• 4D Trajectory Management• Capacity and Efficiency Using RNP/RNAV• Time-Based Metering
High Density Airports• Initial Surface Traffic Management• Integrated Arrival/Departure Management
Flexible Terminals & Facilities• Full Surface Situation Info• Optimized Profile Descent• Runway Safety Alerting• Tower Data Link Taxi Clearance• Wind and Wake Procedures
Collaborative ATM• Flight Plan Constraint Evaluation• On-Demand NAS Information• Trajectory Flight Data Management

IAI Planning Process
• Conduct Annual IAI Planning Activity• Re-examine the IAI Objectives
– Objectives • Discuss Each Member’s R&D Goals for the year
– Relative to the IAI Activity• Goals are evaluated for common threads• Jointly Develop Plan
– Leverages collective R&D efforts– Produce Integrated threads that can be demonstrated
• Ideally look at 2-5 year activity stream – Laboratory demos -> Operational Evals/Trials -> Leave Behind

NextGenImplementation Plan
Collaborative, Trajectory-based Flight Planning
RecommendationOperational evaluation leading to near-term implementation of oceanic & en route collaborative flight planning
Approach• Op Evaluation Phases
1. Airline – Oceanic collaboration (A/L files early intent, receives oceanic constraint evaluation)
2. Airline – En Route collaboration (A/L files early intent, receives en route constraint evaluation)
3. Accelerate SWIM to enable Oceanic – En Route trajectory-based exchange and planning• Demonstrations and Operational Evaluation leading to near-term implementation• Airline, FAA and International ANSP Stakeholder participation
Benefits Goal• User business-preferred flight profiles (Schedule predictability, fuel savings)• Ability to react to system constraint changes (Pre-Flight and during flight) … Maintain Predictability• Seamless airspace operations … Enhances flow and reduces delays
NextGen Enablers• Extends FDO … International FDO interoperability• Demonstrates SWIM and Trajectory-Based Enabler benefits• Supports user-preferred optimum descent profile planning applications
