Do we know where to go? 4
YES. 5
To achieve an interoperable global air traffic management system for all users during all phases of flight, that meets agreed levels of safety; provides for optimum economic operations; is environmentally sustainable; and meets national security requirements. 6

APTA Optimization of Approach Procedures including vertical guidance HAZARDS Lack of approach aids (e.g. ILS, VASI, PAPI) Unstabilized approaches Reduced visibility increases potential for loss of situational awareness (fog, weather, glare, ) Failure of approach Unstable approaches due to vectors above the glide slope 12
WAKE Increased runway throughput through optimized wake turbulence separation HAZARDS Failure to use wind-preferential runways Not using actual winds on the ATIS Failure to provide timely, accurate and complete information : runway condition and braking action reports, weather information, surface wind data 13
RSEQ Improved traffic flow through sequencing (AMAN/DMAN) HAZARDS Unstable approaches due to inefficient traffic flow management Runway selection (Incompatible a/c, late changes) 14
ACDM Improved Airport Operations through Airport-CDM HAZARDS Lack of effective incident reporting system Lack of an effective emergency response plan and inadequate training for emergency response personnel Non effective relay of runway conditions or failure to notify closure of runway/taxiway Modified effective operational runway length data that is not accurately published When part of the airport becomes non-operational such as unanticipated hot spots, snow removal or RFF procedures Failure to provide timely, accurate and complete information : runway condition and braking action reports, weather information, surface wind data, winds in magnetic in order to be consistent with runway heading Managing contingencies related to: (Runway / taxiway closures, inoperative approach aids, technical issues experienced by flight crews and weather phenomena) Pressure to meet performance targets, i.e., reduce delays/increase capacity 15
SURF Safety and Efficiency of Surface Operations (A- SMGCS Level 1-2) HAZARDS Workload issues during taxiing that can result in a loss of situational awareness (Completion of predeparture checklists, second engine start requirements, coordinating amended ATC clearances, complex taxi routing) Factors that can result in confusion and unintended actions Tower location that prevents the monitoring of multiple runway operations, inability to detect confusion events Potential need to manage and coordinate increased number of runway crossings (The more crossing possibilities, the higher the incursion risk) Added vehicular traffic on runway and taxiway surfaces Certain movement areas are blind spots and are not visible from the control tower.. 16
ICAO initiatives in airport safety Global initiatives TCB initiatives Regional initiatives Certification of aerodromes Runway Safety 17
PANS-Aerodromes (Doc 9981), 1 st edition Officially published last month Detailed chapters on: Certification of Aerodromes Safety assessments for aerodromes Aerodrome compatibility Seminars to Aerodrome operators, among others, in Lima and Mexico city (April, 2015) 18
PANS-Aerodromes (Doc 9981), 2 nd edition Under development (2018) Detailed chapters on: Inspections of the movement area Wildlife Management and reduction Runway safety Apron safety Work in Progress Training FOD prevention And others 19
Building capacity in the airport sector, mainly in the following areas: Site selection, and Master Plans (Government, AOs) Assistance in preparation of USOAP Audits (CAAs) Procurement of equipment and fellowships (Government, AOs) Aerodrome certification (CAAs) Operations maintenance (AO) Safety oversight (CAAs) 20
