  • North Atlantic Data Link Mandate: Cost Impact to U.S. Commercial Operators
    Abstract: An analysis was conducted to estimate the cost for U.S. airlines to comply with a data link mandate in the North Atlantic (NAT) Airspace. The mandate will be implemented with the objective of reducing the number of large height deviations and gross navigation errors by improving conformance monitoring and detection of deviations from cleared routes and flight levels. Phase 1 will start on February 7, 2013 with limits defined in the vertical plane from flight level 360 to flight level 390, inclusive. In the horizontal plane, phase 1 will cover no more than two tracks designated as core tracks within the NAT Organized Track System (OTS). Phase 2 will enter into effect on February 5, 2015 and will apply to specified portions of the NAT Minimum Navigation Performance Specification (MNPS) airspace. The extension of phase 2 is yet to be determined. To operate in airspace where the mandate applies, aircraft will need to be equipped with FANS-1/A ADS-C and CPDLC data link. The analysis showed that avionics procurement and installation are the highest costs for aircraft operators. The cost to U.S. commercial operators to comply with the data link mandate is approximately $247.9 million (2012 USD). The largest portion of such cost applies to the retrofit of legacy aircraft, which represent a very high number of operations in the NAT and tend to have low equipage levels.

    Submit a Discussion

    Attendees are welcome to submit a written discussion of any paper presented at the Annual Meeting. Written discussions will be considered for publication in the TRB Transportation Research Record series along with the paper being discussed. The author of the paper is given the opportunity to submit a written closure to the discussion. Please notify Rosa Allen at TRB by February 1, if you plan to submit a written discussion. When this notification is received, TRB staff will verify that the paper being discussed will be published and will provide the most recent version of the paper. This notification is therefore critical to ensure that all prepared discussions are used and to address issues in the most recent version of the paper in question.

    The discussion manuscript should be submitted to Rosa Allen by April 15 in electronic format as a Microsoft Word file (6.0 or later version). For the criteria used for discussions and for information on how to submit discussions for papers, see the Information for Authors document online at the TRB Annual Meeting website, under the Participant and Attendee Guides.
