The 2025 European Sky Vision 3x More flights in the EU skies

10x Improved safety factor

10% environmental impact reduction per flight

50% ATM costs cut

Goals More services, from ATS to APC, with different needs

ATM will totally rely on data communication

More bandwidth for airlines operation & maintenance

Strong market for PAX services

Challenges More radio systems in addition to old ones

45 MCUs & 80 Kg + antennas (without the new systems!)

Summary – SANDRA Demonstration

9 Goals: • For the lab trials the following data links are included: VDL2, L-Band, Ku-Band, AeroMACS • For the flight trials, three data links are envisioned; VDL2, L-Band, AeroMACS • Interconnection between IR, IMR, Antennas, AeroMACS and ground system will be shown • For all data links at least one exemplary application will be shown • Due to the use of legacy (VDL2, BGAN) and non-legacy (AeroMACS) also the handling of the future transition phase of systems will be shown • AeroMACS deployed at real aircraft including take-off and landing and tested at two airports • New development of ATN/OSI over VDL2 / IP (AeroMACS, SBB) stack
