ATM Research (SESAR) programme will help define this future
system that will allow air transport to continue growing in
step with market demand.
SESAR involves all stakeholders (civil and military, legislators,
industry, operators, users, ground and airborne) in defining,
committing to and ultimately implementing a more effective
and integrated ATM architecture that will facilitate the optimal
use of European airspace and airports to meet users’ needs.
SESAR’s objectives are to eliminate fragmentation, transform
the European ATM system, synchronise the plans and actions
of the different partners and federate resources. This will
require a ‘paradigm shift’ in the management of European
airspace, supported by state-of-the-art and innovative
technologies, to support the SES legislation.
The AEA is also hopeful that SESAR will help streamline and
rationalise R&D activities across Europe. De Vroey points out
that there is a lot of overlap at present and a great deal of
money “lost on some R&D efforts that are not useful for
airlines”. He wants the airlines to have a greater say in what
R&D is being done if it is being funded from airline charges. If
it is funded by the taxpayer, that is a different matter. But if
airlines are funding the effort, it should be relevant to them. It
is hoped that this will come out of SESAR.
There is some feeling that ANSPs could do more to cut
costs, but there need to be more incentives for them to do
so. Independent economic regulation would help keep costs
under control, the AEA believes, and suggests, that ultimately
Europe’s aviation industry may require a separate economic
regulator, just as it does a safety regulator.
“We are more than happy to pay for improvements to ATM,
but we are disinclined to pre-finance such investment,” de
Vroey says. “At present, we are expected to fund
improvements up front, before any benefits from the
investment are available. We believe the ANSPs should take on
more risk: they should fund such investments through
commercial money markets or banks, and we will pay for the
services once the additional benefits are available.”
As well as economic regulation, the airlines believe there
should be closer examination to determine which elements
of service provision, for example MET, AIS, etc, can be
opened up to competition. According to de Vroey: “The
airline market has been liberalised and somehow we need
to see competition introduced to a much greater extent
among our service providers. We cannot continue with this
fragmented system.”

ATM: THE CHALLENGE OF GROWTH

Providing a flexible and transparent process for collecting charges within an
expanding EUROCONTROL membership requires constant innovation and change.

mproving the overall efficiency of the European Air Traffic
Management (ATM) system is key to EUROCONTROL’s
strategy of providing an enhanced and improved service to
its Member States. One of the most prominent players in
achieving this objective is the Central Route Charges Office
(CRCO), which provides secure and stable funding for ATM
operation and development in Europe. The CRCO bills and
collects route charges representing some 80 per cent of the
revenues of Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs).
The CRCO bills and collects en-route charges on behalf of
the 32 EUROCONTROL Member States according to a
Common Policy, based upon the Multilateral Agreement
relating to route charges. These charges are essentially used
to cover the costs of en-route air navigation services made
available to users of Member States’ airspace. Users include
legacy carriers and regional, low fares and charter airlines, as
well as business and general aviation.
In 2005, some 9 million flights performed in the European
airspace benefited from high safety and efficiency standards
offered by the European States and ANSPs. These services
combine ATM, communication, navigation and surveillance,
aeronautical meteorology and information services.
Charges billed and collected
From January to December 2005, the CRCO billed a total of
E5.67 billion in respect of route charges. On top of this, the
