3 CRASH COURSE, 6 YEARS OF RTS IMPLEMENTATION EXPERIENCE Started RTS test already 2005 together with SAAB ANSP strategy for implementation and change management Operational procedures,licensing of ATCO and Training Approval process Some of the operational experience

4 Some definitions before we continue Remote Tower Services RTS the air traffic servcie product provided by LFV or any other ANS Provider same as ATS but remote. Remote Tower Centre RTC center to handle the remote towers built by LFV in Sundsvall or elsewhere. Remote Towers the technical product delivered from the industry, sometimes called remote towers.

5 RTS ANSP and Stakeholders Reduce the costs for local ATS ATCO efficiency Provide more flexible services; ATS, AFIS on low or seasonal and remote locations Provide contingency services for larger airports Improve safety with enhanced features in the system Reduce investment costs in tower buildings, old, new or due to changed airport topography Support civ/ military operations during all stages Foster the transformation of ATM in the region and globally

6 LFV/SAAB - LONG TIME COOPERATION EXPERIENCE r-twr proof of concept project start ART project start Shadow mode validations at Sturup ART validations at Sturup The second r-twr symposium SESAR validation 2 single Delivery of SESAR r-twr prototype Værøy-Bodø Delivery of r-twr test system to Airservices SESAR validation Contingency Landvetter The third r-twr symposium Approved for operational use r-twr installed at Ängelholm airport ATC Global 2009 & r- TWR rollout Start of SESAR r-twr projects SESAR validation 1 single Delivery of 1st operational r-twr system SESAR validation AFIS Værøy-Bodø Start of operational certification in Sweden Delivery to Røst SESAR Multiple Simulation/ Validatoin Contract remote RWY Schiphol IAA Contract

7 LFV Strategy for RTS realisation Change of a functional system (1-3) according to EU/ICAO No 1-Technique, ANSP/ATCO operational demand is the driver,the system shall support existing rules and regulation as much as possible No 2-Procedures, the system shall support ATS service - no changes for pilots or stakeholders No 3-Human Resources are trained to perform the service according to above and need only system training. ANSP is the owner of the approval

8 LFV DESIGN DECISION Technical system shall have fully integrated controllers working position I-CWP Integrated CWP reduces maintenance and training significant Decreased ATCO interaction with subsystems and reduces workload Easy to use, ATCO can put all attention on the operational work HF experts and ATCO`s involved from the start of project LFV DESIGN DECISIONS Technical system shall have fully integrated controllers working positions I- CWP 2 Technical system shall support existing rules and regulations Outcome; *ANSP doesn't need to have special operational RTS rules *No change in ATCO certification or basic training, only unit endorsement *Pilots and airports have no changes *Minimum of system training

9 RTC 1.0

10 R_TWR In operation 14 Full HD Cameras 2 Zoom cameras 2 Signal lights 2 Microphones Compressed Camera house to keep dirt away Environmental protection (-40 to C Duplicated if you need backup or having a large airport Separate emergency radio system

11 ANSP operational validation 2013 Eurocontrol methodology Passive validation ; 10 weeks, 30 ATCO from other LFV units. Spring 2013 Information and visits from trade unions, aviation associations, airports, airlines and stakeholders. Open facility. Advanced validation ; Performed for 8 weeks-positive results. Autumn 2013 Validation report and safety documents More than 200 ATCO s has seen the facility and worked with technique.

12 Swedish approval process Long process with the Swedish regulator; first meeting mars 2011 and ongoing. No technical standardizations available (EUROCAE WG100) No Safety standardizations available (EASA GM July 2015) Deliver of more than 240 documents of various volumes ( + 2 Meter) Questions & answers, more than 685 handled before live operation started

13 Swedish approval process All operational validations finished was more or less training of Swedish Transport agency, giving them confidence and understanding about the functional system. Operational approval received 31th October Approval to perform MET observations, January 2015 No traffic restrictions Full live operations from the RTC started 21 April 2015

14 RTC Operational experiences Presenting in RTM opening Reduction of separation minima can be used according to doc 4444 Moving between airports minor problem We can use most of our operational manuals TWR position, the best operational position. OPS room working environment. Depth sight is not an issue ATCO s love it. AND MORE

15 RTS Sweden implementation - First airport operational since last year. - Second airport operational may 2016-next month - Centralized RTC-APP Q Third airport operational Q Contract discussions with additional airports - Contingency process with Stockholm/ARN - Building extension of RTC started - And more
