Register to view this On-Demand Webinar (recorded 26th October 2023), and join Flight Operations specialists NAVBLUE, as they showcase how airlines and airports of all sizes worldwide can benefit from RNP AR to enhance efficiency and payload, plus increase capacity. Required Navigation Performance with Authorization Required (RNP AR) has long proved its capability to provide instrument approaches at difficult locations, such as mountainous areas. During this Webinar, the NAVBLUE team will showcase how the technology can be used to benefit all airlines and airports with new concepts and use cases. Using real-world case studies, you will first see the opportunities to use RNP AR for departures, and the benefits it can bring to obstacle optimization and consequently to payload and thrust improvements; you will see the careful consideration to performance that must be given directly at the procedure design level. Next you will see the concept of Established on RNP AR, allowing simultaneous parallel approaches at large airports, including how the usual mode 1 with Instrument Landing System (ILS) is detrimental to performance and how RNP AR can drastically reduce track miles. Finally, you will see a step-by-step guide to gaining operational approval – a process that can be confusing, especially when flying overseas; and you will learn about the NAVBLUE complete RNP AR Implementation end-to-end solution that is tailored for airlines and easy to implement for ATC.

This webinar will be divided into 5 sections:

What is Required Navigation Performance with Authorization Required (RNP AR)?
First the NAVBLUE team will provide a brief reminder of the RNP AR concept: Definition, difference with RNP, and an example of a common use of RNP AR for approach. As you will see, RNP AR is a PBN navigation specification based on a satellite positioning system. Authorizing a navigation accuracy from 0.3NM down to 0.1NM and turns after the final approach point, the RNP AR concept offers significant operational and safety benefits, positively impacting fuel consumption and pilot workload. Traditional implementation of RNP AR can improve access to low visibility airports, allow improved trajectories through mountainous terrain, and exploit aircraft performance at high-altitude.
Case Study 1: Using RNP AR Departures to Improve Payload and Thrust.
Next you will see the opportunities to use RNP AR for departures, and the benefits it can bring to obstacle optimization and consequently to payload improvements; you will see the careful consideration to performance that must be given directly at the procedure design level. The NAVBLUE team will showcase a case study from Kathmandu Airport showing how RNP AR allows navigation accuracy down to 0.3 NM and below. You will see how RNP AR Departures optimize payload and thrust.
Case Study 2: Using Established on RNP AR (EoR) Concept for Parallel Approaches.
Next you will see the opportunities for using Established on RNP AR to improve capacity and reduce fuel consumption at large airports. The NAVBLUE team will run through a definition of the concept, as well as an explanation of the current limitations with parallel approaches using Instrument Landing System (ILS), followed by details and information regarding the constraints and considerations for EoR. You will see a case study from Tianjin Binhai Airport, showcasing how EoR significantly improves the efficiency of simultaneous independent approaches:

– The RNP AR trajectory is much shorter than the ILS, with a track miles reduction of between 10 and 30 miles per approach.
– The ILS trajectory itself is also shortened as the constraint for 1000 feet vertical separation is removed.

Step-by-Step Guide to Gaining Operational Approval for RNP AR
Next, the NAVBLUE team will cover the notions and concepts on RNP AR Operational Approval. Specifically, they will summarize the general approval requirements, and specificities to operate RNP AR in a foreign country. Finally, you will see the EASA generic vs specific approval and its practical implications.

RNP AR Implementation: NAVBLUE end-to-end Solution Tailored for Airlines
Finally, NAVBLUE will provide an overview of their complete RNP AR Implementation end-to-end solution tailored for airlines and easy to implement for ATC. As you will see airlines are supported through every step of the process and all stakeholders are involved, from a feasibility study, to support for RNP AR upgrade on the aircraft, to operational approval, including Flight Operations Safety Assessment (FOSA), to ATC training; and more.

The Webinar begins with Honeywell fuel efficiency experts providing an overview of Honeywell Flight Efficiency, their popular cloud-based, deep data analytics solution, as used by airlines of all sizes and fleet types worldwide to establish a companywide fuel efficiency program, as well as to equip management and flight crews with actionable insights that they can use to reduce fuel consumption and cut carbon emissions with every flight. You will see key features such as the Pilot Connect Mobile App, Dashboards, Data Quality Engine, Advanced analysis, and much more. You will then learn how airlines can use the solution, and Honeywell expertise, to take their fuel efficiency projects to the next level through analysing their unique operations data to identify new ways to save fuel and overcome operational challenges. The Honeywell team will take you through several different use cases including: optimizing Center of Gravity (CoG) before take-off; NextGen FMS savings tracking on Embraer aircraft; Optimizing Required Navigation Performance (RNP) approach procedures using historical flight data; Airport specific RETO Compliance monitoring; and more.

The Webinar is divided into the following key sections:

Overview of Honeywell Flight Efficiency and Identifying Advanced Savings
The Webinar begins with an overview of Honeywell Flight Efficiency, a popular cloud-based, deep data analytics solution, as used by airlines of all sizes and fleet types worldwide (such as British Airways, Japan Airlines, AirAsia, Azul, Air Transat, Wideroe, and more) to establish a companywide fuel efficiency program and equip management and flight crews with specific guidance to pilots, ground personnel and others so that they can make informed decisions regarding fuel loading, taxiing and flight procedures, and plus gauge the impact of decisions affecting fuel economy on other airline priorities, like on-time performance. You will see key features such as the Pilot Connect Mobile App, Dashboards, Data Quality Engine, Advanced analysis, Trajectory Analysis, Statistical Fuel, how to utilize build-in content and drill down to analyse flight events.

The Honeywell team will then outline how an airline can take a fuel efficiency program to the next level through analysing their unique operations data to identify new ways to save fuel using the Honeywell Flight Efficiency solution.

Advanced Use-Case 1: Optimizing Center of Gravity (CoG)
The first advanced fuel efficiency use case you will see is optimizing the aircraft’s Center of Gravity (CoG). One of the big challenges that airlines face today is knowing exactly how much fuel they could save if they move CoG to the AFT. As you will see Honeywell uses a high-granularity dataset to build a ML model of CoG impact on fuel consumption. The model is then loaded into the platform to calculate savings.

The data gathered is the difference between an actual CoG and a most optimum CoG quantified on a per-flight basis in terms of excess fuel. The Aggregated results drive the model.

Advanced Use-Case 2: NextGen FMS Savings Tracking, following Upgrade
Next you will see how the platform assists airlines who are flying Embraer aircraft to verify and measure fuel savings brought in through upgrading the conventional FMS which does not support Cost Index and ECON flight, to the Next Generation FMS (NGFMS) Gold which enables cost index flying for Embraer. You will see how the airline can then run reports and analyse data to show efficiency savings from the NGFMS.

The same process can be undertaken for any other fuel efficiency modifications, turning Honeywell Flight Efficiency into a value validation tool.

Advanced Use-Case 3: Optimizing Required Navigation Performance (RNP) Approach Procedures
Next see how Honeywell assists airlines to analyse and fly optimum RNP profiles. Flight data is ingested into the platform and each flight is analysed with respect to the relevant RNP procedure so that compliance is established. By using flight events as filters, an airline user can easily analyse any segment of the RNP procedure and even establish compliance to a segment. Flying the optimum RNP profiles may not always be possible due to operational registrations, so with this data airlines can analyse and understand why flights are unable to comply to RNP procedures and find ways to optimize operations for future flights.
Advanced Use-Case 4: Hong Kong Airport Specific RETO Compliance Project
Hong Kong Airport are concerned with excessive N1, and therefore issued a requirement that airlines are authorized to perform engine-out taxi operations only if they maintain N1 lower than 40% in certain areas of the airport. To get authorization airlines are required to implement a monitoring program. You will see how Honeywell assisted their customer operating out of Hong Kong Airport to set up a comprehensive monitoring program allowing the airline to track each flight that goes through the restricted areas storing, among other parameters, N1 data in easy-to-download reports.

Digital Day of Operations Apps with Real-Time Connectivity for Pilots, Cabin Crew, Dispatch, Ground Crew & Maintenance Demo Webinar [eWAS Pilot Weather App; CrewTab; eWAS Dispatch for Flight Tracking; Flight Folder for real-time OFP; Mission Control]

Register to view this On-Demand Webinar (recorded 30th September 2021) and join SITA FOR AIRCRAFT for a full overview and demo of their Digital Day of Operations (DDO) suite of integrated Apps and services designed to digitize and optimize each flight at pre-flight, take-off, inflight, landing and post-flight. As you will see, the DDO Apps, designed for key personnel for each flight (pilots, cabin crew, dispatch, ground crew, maintenance, OCC) and powered by smart technology and real-time connectivity, enable flight and route optimization for pilots in-flight, greater coordination for dispatchers, ease of communication between crew and maintenance on the ground and in-flight, and improved situational awareness for OCC, leading to improved on-time performance, turnaround, safety and sustainability while reducing costs.

During the Webinar SITA FOR AIRCRAFT experts will demo the Apps for a typical flight showcasing the seamless communication across platforms including Pilots accessing the eWAS Pilot app for real-time optimized views of live weather and the Flight Folder App for real-time OFP; dispatch using Flight Tracking and Flight Folder Apps; cabin crew, ground crew and maintenance using the flight specific shared communication App, Mission Control, for seamless communication in-flight and on the ground; and more.

The Webinar is divided into three key sections:

Industry Challenges: Covid Impact on Resources; Sustainable Aviation; Digitization
The Webinar begins with SITA FOR AIRCRAFT experts outlining the market conditions and challenges facing the industry. Challenges include airlines compensating for reduced staff levels post Covid, with the need to digitize and automate processes: the importance of finding better and more efficient ways of working and a continuous effort to optimize operations. There is also global demand for sustainable aviation and the drive towards zero carbon aircraft operations.

As you will see the DDO suite of Apps provides airlines with the tools needed to meet these challenges, from assisting pilots and dispatch to optimize flight routes for maximum fuel efficiency, to improving air-to-ground collaboration so that a smaller team can work more effectively and efficiently together on each flight, to enhancing situational awareness and continue to optimize operations.
Day of Operations Apps Demos and Overviews
Next you will be taken on a full overview and demo of each of the Apps:

(i) eWAS Pilot App: Provides pilots with graphically optimized views of weather phenomena to the flight deck, in real time. Pilots can then take informed, proactive decisions to re-route flight plans to avoid significant weather. Airlines can also use the App for forecasts and satellite-based observation data to create more economical and sustainable flight plans. By evaluating fuel decisions using eWAS Pilot Intelligence, airlines can calculate the right amount of fuel to carry.
(ii) FlightFolder App: Provides pilots and dispatchers with easy access to flight briefings. Pilots can log flights efficiently, while dispatchers can dispatch, monitor, and withdraw flights, sharing a common view with the pilots. Dispatchers and pilots provide and receive real-time operational flight plan (OFP) updates and directly attach new or revised documents. The App facilitates a fully digital flight briefing to optimize flight operations
(iii) CrewTab App: Provides cabin crew with an all-in-one solution to digitally transform their daily operations, including quick access to passengers’ information for better customer care and less time spent on administrative work resulting in more time for passengers and paperless operations. The App automates repetitive flight management processes.
(iv) eWAS Dispatch App: Provides dispatch with SITA’s next generation flight tracking tool with best-in-class real-time weather services, allowing dispatchers to make better decisions based on more accurate and extensive data. The App automatically and continuously checks multiple flight and external parameters and raises an alert if there is an anomaly, so dispatchers do not need to monitor flights continuously. The unique combination of features for better tracking, weather avoidance, fuel usage, and communications improves operational efficiency, sustainability, reliability, and safety.
(v) Mission Control App: A shared platform providing cross-team collaboration for each flight for all key personnel such as pilots, OCC, ramp, gate personnel, cabin crew, maintenance, etc. Integrated with Datalink services, the App ensure everyone has simultaneous access to the same information. The App creates full visibility and transparency for optimizing efficiency and turnaround.
Day of Operations App Demo: A Typical Flight
Finally, you will see a demo of the Apps for a typical flight showcasing the seamless communication and data integration:

Step 1: The pilots using the eWAS Pilot App identify bad weather on-route.
Step 2: The pilots use the Mission Control App to notify all key flight personnel of a diversion.
Step 3: In the meantime, Cabin Crew report a cabin fault in their CrewTab App and use the Mission Control App to report the fault to maintenance so they are ready to make a repair when the aircraft arrives at the gate.
Step 4: Dispatch use the eWAS Dispatch App to identify the best re-route and update the flight package in the FlightFolder App. The Pilots access the new route in their FlightFolder App.
Step 5: The Pilots use the FlightFolder App to check the weather at the diversion airport. The pilots then use the Mission Control App to message the ground handlers at the diversion airport so they are ready to receive the aircraft.
