  1. Flight Planning Present and Future Day 3 Description of the FPL from 15 Nov. 2012 (the 2012 FPL) Andrew Hill, Eurocontrol

  2. Introduction to the 2012 FPL • ICAO has published a State Letter AN 13/2.1-08/50, dated 25 June 2008 announcing changes to the FPL for 15 November 2012. • Objective: to allow modern COM/NAV/SUR capabilities to be represented, and to remove some ambiguities. • ICAO intends this to be a small step towards the new FPL (Day 4 Discussion)

  3. Extract from Appendix to State Letter AN 13/2.1-08/50, dated 25 June 2008

  4. Current PANS-ATM for same section

  5. What Changes? • No basic change to FPL format and fields: • Main changes are to field content. • In some associated messages (CHG, DLA, etc), field 13b (EOBT) and field 18 have been added. (Field 3 – Field 7 – Field 8ab – Field 9ab / c – Field 10a / b – Field 13ab – Field 15ab c – Field 16ab c – Field 18)

  6. Potential Impact on Stakeholder Systemsand Documentation Non-Exclusive List: • Flight Planning systems of Aircraft Operators • Systems used by ATS Reporting Offices to generate FPLs and associated messages • Automated Flight Briefing systems • Flight Plan Service Provider systems • Flight Data Processing Systems of ATC Centres, Military Centres and Airports • Route Charges systems • On-Line Data Interchange (OLDI) Standard • ATS Data Exchange presentation (ADEXP) Standard • HMI of ATC Controller positions • Flight plan data archive systems • ICAO Doc.7030 • Operational Testing will be essential

  7. 2012 FPL – Main Changes I • Ability to file FPL up to 120 H (5 days) in advance. Related to use of DOF in Field 18. • Field 10: More detailed indicators for COM, NAV and SUR equipment using alphanumeric characters • Field 15: Bearing and Distance can now be given from a Significant Point (2, 3 or 5 characters), not just a Navigation aid (2 or 3 characters). e.g. DUBLN180040.

  8. 2012 FPL – Main Changes II Field 18: • New indicators – SUR/, DOF/, PBN/, DLE/, TALT/, ORGN/ • Changed descriptors: • ATFMEXEMPTAPPROVED  ATFMX • NONRNAV  RNAVX • No longer valid in STS/: • EXM833, PROTECTED, RNAVX, CPDLCX • STS/FFR (Firefighting) and STS/MEDEVAC (Medical Evacuation) • added to auto exemption from ATFM measures • priority in IFPS processing

  9. 2012 FPL – Main Changes III • Some important new restrictions: • No other field 18 indicators allowed – anything else must go in RMK/ • No other STS/ indicators allowed, all must go into RMK/ • Addition of Field 13b (EOBT) in CNL, CHG, ARR, RQS, RQP • Addition of Field 18 in CNL, DLA, CHG, DEP, RQS, RQP • Result will be some new error messages from IFPS, contained in REJ messages

  10. Some of the New / Modified Elements Digits in Field 10 a&b Up to 20 chars in Field 10b (FPL-EIN105-IS-B763/H-E3J4M2SRYWX/HB2U2V2G1-ZZZZ1200-N0400F100 DENUT UL610 LAM UL10 BPK UN601 LESTA UP6 MIMKU/M082F320 NATB YAY/N0464F320 N188B YRI/N0462F340 DCT NOTAP180040 DCT TVC PMM5-KORD0700 KATL-STS/ATFMX MARSA FLTCKPBN/A1C3L1 NAV/GBASSBAS OTHER DAT/FREE TEXT SUR/FREE TEXT DEP/MALAHIDE 5327N00609WDOF/080622 REG/DAISK TYP/2F15 3F5DLE/NTM0130 ORGN/EBBDZMFP PER/A TALT/EIDW RMK/FREE TEXT) New Field or Element New or Modified content

  11. What becomes invalid on 15/11/12 ? • Field10a : ‘E’, ‘J’, ‘M’, ‘P’, ‘Q’ • Field10b : ‘D’ • Field 18 : 2x the same indicator e.g. STS/XXX STS/YYY • Field 18 : use of free text in STS • Field 18 : STS/EMER, STS/ATFMEXEMPTAPPROVED e.g. (FPL-ABC105-IS-B763/H-SRYWEJMPQX/CD-ZZZZ1200-N0400F100 DENUT UL610 LAM UL10 BPK UN601 LESTA UP6 MIMKU/M082F320 NATB YAY/N0464F320 N188B YRI/N0462F340 DCT NOTAP DCT TVC PMM5-KORD0700 KATL-STS/ATFCMEXEMPTAPPROVED STS/EXM833PRESSURISATION PROB UNABLE ABOVE F120)

  12. What becomes mandatory on 15/11/12 ? Field 13b in associated messages CNL, DLA, CHG, ARR, RQS, RQP Field 18 in associated messages CNL, DLA, CHG, RQS, RQP (ARR-ABC105-EIDW2200-KORD0400) (CHG-ABC105-EIDW2200-KORD-DOF/091222-9/E346/H) (CHG-ABC105-EIDW2200-KORD-0-9/E346/H) (CNL-ABC105-EIDW2200-KORD-DOF/091222) (DLA-ABC105-EIDW0100-KORD-DOF/091222) (CHG-ABC105-EIDW2200-KORD-DOF/091222-9/E346/H-13/EIDW0100-18/DOF/091223)

  13. New Text on Level Change at a Point Resolving the ambiguity about where a level change begins (mentioned on day 2).

  14. Typical Ambiguity in current PANS-ATM Point where a Level change takes place - I PANS-ATM text: «Change of speed or level: the point at which a change of level is planned, […], followed by an oblique stroke and both the cruising speed and the cruising level, […], without a space between them, even when only one of these quantities will be changed ».  e.g. level change from FL 280 to FL 350: N0397F280 TOBIS UT502 ALS UN872 KUBAT UR1 LILSI/N0398F350 UZ310 FL350 FL280 ICAO interpretation LILSI (previous point on UR1)

If ‘Z’ present  at least one of COM/, DAT/, NAV expected in F18

  16. Field 10a NAV/COM

  17. Field 10b – SUR Equipment and Capability Syntax: ["N"] | (1{ ("I" | "P" | "X") | "A" | "C"}3 | 1{ "A" | "C" | "E" | "H" | "L" | "S"}6) [1{"B1"| "B2" | "D1" | "G1" | "U1" | "U2" | "V1" | "V2"}8 ] • Description: The descriptor 'N' or, either one or more of the descriptors ‘I’, ‘P’, ‘X’, ‘A’, ‘C’ with ‘I’, ‘P’, ‘X’ being mutually exclusive i.e. only one may be present, or one or more of the descriptors ‘A’, ‘C’, ‘E’, ‘H’, ‘L’, ‘S’. Plus optionally one or more of the descriptors ‘B1’, ‘B2’, ‘D1’, ‘G1’, ‘U1’, ‘U2’, ‘V1’, ‘V2’ without repetition. A total limit of 20 characters shall be applied • No longer accepted: D • New: Letter&Digit combinations Semantics: None

  18. Field 10b SUR equipment

  19. Field 18 – IFPS will Accept Syntax: [ "0" ] | [ 1{"STS/" | "PBN/"| “EUR/” | "NAV/" | "COM/" | "DAT/" | "SUR/" | "DEP/" | "DEST/" | "DOF/" | "REG/" | "EET/" | "SEL/" | "TYP/" | "CODE/" | "RVR/" | "DLE/" | "OPR/" | "ORGN/" | "PER/" | "ALTN/" | "RALT/" | "TALT/" | "RIF/" | "RMK/" | "STAYINFOn/" | "RFP/" } ] • Description: Either the descriptor "0" (zero) or one or more of the listed elements without repetition. • Order of fields not important to IFPS. • New: SUR/, (DOF/), PBN/, DLE/, TALT/, ORGN/, EUR/ • (DOF/ was already accepted by IFPS) Semantics: If PBN/ ’R’ in F10a

  20. Field 18 – Transmitted by IFPS Syntax: 1{ [ "0" ] | ["STS/" | "PBN/" | “EUR/” | "NAV/" | "COM/" | "DAT/" | "SUR/" | "DEP/" | "DEST/" | "DOF/" | "REG/" | "EET/" | "SEL/" | "TYP/" | "CODE/" | "RVR/" | "IFP/" | "DLE/" | "OPR/" | "ORGN/" | "PER/" | "ALTN/" | "RALT/" | "TALT/" | "SRC/" | "RIF/" | "RMK/" | "STAYINFOn/" | "RFP/" | "AWR/" ] } • Description: Either the descriptor "0" (zero) or one or more of the listed elements in the order shown above. • The indicators "SRC/", "AWR/" and "IFP/" shall not be output by IFPS to unknown ‘AD’ line addressees

  21. Field 18 – STS/ Syntax: 1{ "ALTRV" | "ATFMX" | "FFR" | "FLTCK" | " HAZMAT" | "HEAD" | "HOSP" | "HUM" | "MARSA" | "MEDEVAC" | "NONRVSM" | "SAR" | "STATE" } • Description: one or more of the listed descriptors without repetition. • No longer accepted: ATFMEXEMPTAPPROVED, EXM833, PROTECTED, NONRNAV, RNAVINOP, Other free text. All now to be provided in RMK/ • New: ATFMX, FFR, FLTCK, HAZMAT, MARSA, MEDEVAC

  22. ICAO (informal) explanation of MARSA and ATLRV ALTRV: for a flight operated in accordance with an altitude reservation • Purpose – inserted when all or part of the route is included in an already-approved altitude reservation. Prior coordination and approval is required with the first ATSU responsible. • An altitude reservation is a temporary airspace segregated from other air traffic; the procedure can be used to accommodate civilian or military operations. Altitude reservations can be static or moving. MARSA: for a flight for which a military entity assumes responsibility for separation of military aircraft. • Purpose –inserted when a military entity will assume responsibility for separating the military aircraft from other military aircraft.

  23. Field 18 – DEPT, DEST, ALTN • Description: The name of the departure aerodrome (up to 50 characters) plus optionally (for aerodromes not listed in the relevant AIP) the location of the aerodrome given either as bearing and distance from a significant point or as a latitude and longitude. Or, if the aircraft did not depart from an aerodrome, the first point on the route (given by a Nav. Aid, Waypoint or Marker Beacon designator) or by latitude & longitude. e.g. DEP/MALAHIDE DUB11015 DEP/MALAHIDE 5327N00608W DEP/BAGSO DEP/5327N00608W

  24. Field 18 – DLE • Description: a significant point followed by an indication of a time period in hours and minutes e.g. DLE/DUB0040 ; DLE/DUB1800400030 • A DLE/ indication will be retained by IFPS and provided to ATC Units as received regardless of the location of the DLE point (inside/outside IFPZ) • The CFMU profile shall reflect the additional flight time as appropriate • The STAY indication will be retained for use for flights which remain entirely within the IFPZ, as today, e.g. DUB STAY1/0040 OLN • Note: STAY has 2 extra features: • Allows STAY between 2 different points • More than one STAY is allowed.

  25. Modifying Field 18 cont. Note : When modifying a Field 18 element complete Field 18 must be provided, not just the modified element. Elements not repeated will be deleted. IFPS will support use of the Field 22 mechanism when a CHG message modifies Field 18, completely replacing all existing data with the new data provided FPL: F18= PBN/B3 DOF/100323 REG/OOSAB (CHG-ABC123-EBBR2230-EDDF-DOF/100323-18/REG/OOSAX)  F18= PBN/B3 DOF/100323 REG/OOSAX i.e. PBN & DOF have been removed !

  26. Field 13b (EOBT) - Other Messages • Field 13b (EOBT) required in CNL, CHG, ARR, RQS, RQP e.g. (CNL-ABC123-EBBR1410-EDDF) • IFPS will not raise an error if not present (some ANSPs may!) • IFPS will ensure EOBT is always included in CNL, CHG, ARR messages sent to ATC Units.E.g.(ARR-ABC123-EBBR1410-EDDF1500)

  27. Field 18 - Other Message – Input Examples The following are all examples of valid message compositions: 1. (CHG-EIN105-EIDW1200-KORD-DOF/100304-9/E346/H) 2. (CNL-EIN105-EIDW1200-KORD-DOF/100304) 3. (CNL-EIN105-EIDW1200-KORD-0) 4. (CNL-EIN105-EIDW1200-KORD-STS/ATFMX MARSA FLTCK PBN/A1C3L1 NAV/GBAS SBAS DAT/NO SPECIFIC DESIGNATORS SUR/ADDITIONAL INFO DEP/MALAHIDE 5327N00609W DOF/100305) ICAO Clarification: “It is agreed that in the messages concerned there is no useful reason to put all Item 18 information if there is no change in the referred Item. Field Type 18 in a CHG message shall not contain the changes. They go in Field Type 22. Field Type 18 with DOF specified in such messages is meant to identify the flight uniquely when the FPL is presented more than 24 hours in advance and there is no need to include all the other Item 18 information in those messages.”

  28. Use of DOF/ FPL: F18= STS/HOSP DOF/100304 PBN/B3 F13b= 2230 Flight is delayed until 0200 i.e. a delay over midnight. (DLA-ABC123-EBBR0200-EDDF-DOF/100304) OR (CHG-ABC123-EBBR2230-EDDF-DOF/100304-13/EBBR0200 18/STS/HOSP DOF/100305 PBN/B3) Note 1: The DOF (or Off Block Date) as provided in Field 18 shall always refer to the last notified Off Block Date & Time (EOBD/EOBT). Note 2: A modification to F18, via Field 22, must contain the complete F18 information, otherwise the ‘missing’ data will be removed from the FPL.

  29. Use of DOF/ cont. FPL: F18= STS/HOSP DOF/100304 PBN/B3 F13b= 2230 Flight is delayed until 0200 i.e. a delay over midnight. (DLA-ABC123-EBBR0200-EDDF-DOF/100304) * OR (CHG-ABC123-EBBR2230-EDDF-DOF/100304-13/EBBR0200 18/STS/HOSP DOF/100305 PBN/B3) * Note. The ‘last’ DOF is to be provided in F18 allowing correlation with the existing FPL. Once applied to the FPL a delay over midnight is understood as an implicit modification of the DOF. A further delay until 0400 is required. (DLA-ABC123-EBBR0400-EDDF-DOF/100305)
