The Best Laid Plans …. • Integrated Schedule - PIT Maintained • Stream 1 - Test PIIe Service End to End via ATN, Fly BAC 1-11 with Satcom against MAAS • Stream 2 - Same Again, Add the new element, VDL Mode 2 • Stream 3 - Same Again, Add Production Avionics from Rockwell-Collins • Certification Flight AAL 767 • Non Revenue Flights • Revenue Flights

What is Left To Do • Detailed analysis of logs/traces from 20+ hours BAC1-11 flights and 21 AAL Non-REV flights out of CDG • Lessons Learned will be documented • Network Tuning is essential • Those that affect standards will be injected into AEEC/ICAO/RTCA • There are Technical Issues to resolve • Unexpected NOCOMM (coverage/handoff) • Performance optimisation • Resolution is NOT in the scope of PIIe
What Was Achieved • An Integrated Operational System with MAASTRICHT UAC supporting AAL Commercial Flights • A Major Milestone in Datalink made possible by dedicated teams in American Airlines, Rockwell-Collins, ARINC, STNA, Eurocontrol Maastricht and Eurocontrol Brétigny

DERA Validating ATN/VDL M2 in Europe • CMU/MCDU and VDR “palette mounted” in DERA Van for VDL Checkout - May 01 • 20 hours flight with CMU/MCDU and VDR Installed on BAC1-11 - FromJune 01 until start August 01 • CPDLC exercised against EEC test tools plus automatic traffic generation • Collecting output information from air and ground sides for post analysis: • VGS Hand-off’s ! VGS Coverage boundaries ! VGS Coverage overlap ! • Air side performances
NON-Revenues flights • Four AAL 767s Rockwell Collins CMU equipped at CDG • 21 flights from start of July until mid of August 01 • CPDLC exercised against EEC test tools and UAC Maastricht. Automatic traffic generation for post analysis of air and ground registered traces • CPDLC Op. UAC Maastricht and STNA (shadow mode) with external CPDLC transfers exercised between both
ATN Progress ! • Successful Non-Revenues flights continued by US/Europe Revenues flights with UAC Maastricht CPDLC exchanges in inbound/outbound VDL M2 coverage • MAJOR progress in implementation of Air/Ground Datalink thanks to real good co-ordination and motivation between all partners teams
