Patterns & Trends of Business Aviation in
Europe

Business Aviation
(For us) defined as a list of aircraft types7‐8% of IFR flights in EuropeStrong growth from 2001‐2007Very different patterns of operation
3
Growth per market segment in Europe
Business Aviation:
Weaker again in recent weeks
4
Everything but routine
5
Non‐repeat Business
Scheduled traffic:There and back again
Business Aviation:Many Airport pairs only flown in one direction
6
Top 500 Business Routes ‐ 2008
7
Avoiding Delays
But worse when they do happen
In 2008, business & scheduled similar ratio of airport versus en route delay

SESAR Initiatives:IMPROVED AIRPORT PERFORMANCE
AirportThroughput,
Safety and theEnvironment
Safety nets for pilot and ATCO
Automation support to surface movement
Techniques to increase RWY throughput
Improvements to low visibility operations
Remote tower operations
Info Mgmt Progressive implementation of SWIM
Trajectory BasedOperations
Continuous climb/descent operations
Tailored arrivals
Queue Mgmt AMAN/DMAN/SMAN + CDM 4
Integrated queue management

SESAR: Airport Operations
Airport/TMA safety, efficiency, capacity and environmental gains;
Through the implementation of:Airport Capacity Enhancement (ACE) Programme actions;A‐CDM; TMA Improvement Programme; Best practices;
European Action Plan for the Prevention of Runway Incursions.

Best Practices for RWY management
Safer Airport operations
Improved Low Visibility Operations
Improved airport throughput
Enhanced Airport safety
Enhanced LVO
Improved Throughput in Low Visibility Operations:GNSS‐based Operations;GBAS landing and surface navigation;
Airport Safety improved:Airport safety nets;Enhanced navigation for airport vehicle.

IMPROVED LV OPERATIONS ENHANCED LVO
Synthetic Vision Systems (SVS):Provides flight crew with synthetic/graphical view;Uses terrain imagery and position/altitude on HUD technology;Facilitates approach and ground operations in low visibility;
Remote Tower Operations:Exploit remote sensors in real‐time, enhancing safety of operations in a cost‐effective way.

Future Challenges
Network modelling of SESAR gainsAirport capacity up from 3000 mvts/hr to 5000Delays/movement maintained
Challenges of Growth 2008 Report1
By 2030, 19 European airports operating at capacity >8 hours/day
