PROactive Safety PERformance for Operations (PROSPERO)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2015,

Whilst a vision of zero deaths for air travel may seem unattainable it could be the goal of all involved in air traffic systems (ATS.) To get closer to this vision requires innovation and a different approach. In Vision 2020 the EU set a goal of reducing the air travel accident rate by 80%. The implementation of PROSPERO will provide an advanced systemic methodology for managing the improvement pr ...

All Condition Operations and Innovative Cockpit Infrastructure (ALICIA)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2014,

"ALICIA addresses the ACARE objective of increasing time efficiency within the future air transport system. The aim will be to develop a new and scalable cockpit application which can extend operations of aircraft in degraded conditions – “All Conditions Operations”. A key objective will be to deliver an extensible application that can be applied to many aircraft types. This will necessarily enta ...

DEmonstration of LIdar based Clear Air Turbulence detection (DELICAT)

Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

"Atmospheric turbulence encounters are the leading cause of injuries to passengers and crews in non-fatal airline accident. The number of turbulence accidents has been growing by a factor of 5 since 1980. A whole class of turbulence (Clear Air Turbulence), representing 40% of turbulence accidents, cannot be detected by any existing equipment including state-of-the-art weather radar. Operational co ...

Weather hazards for aeronautics (WEZARD)

Start date: Jul 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2013,

"On April 14th, 2010, the eruption of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano and the accompanying cloud of volcanic ash forced most countries in northern Europe to shut their airspace, grounding more than 100,000 flights, affected an estimated 10 million travellers and had a financial impact of 5 bn US$ over a seven day period. This event revealed to what extent our society and economy rely on the availabi ...

ODICIS - One DIsplay for a Cockpit Interactive Solution (ODICIS)

Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2012,

"ODICIS project aims at developing a single display cockpit and at studying its concept of use. This addresses three current major aeronautics needs: system architecture flexibility, useful surface optimization and information continuity. Therefore the project will improve the operational safety and efficiency and reduce the aircraft development cost. The first objective is to prove the technical ...

Demonstration of ANemometry InstrumEnt based on LAser (DANIELA)

Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2011,

"The availability of highly integrated laser and optics technology offer the prospect of increased aircraft Air Data System robustness in adverse conditions. Indeed, although critical, the system is subject to hailstone, icing, corrosion, bird collision, passenger stairs mishandling. Thus the optics technology offers the capability to improve the operational capacity and safety of the air transpor ...

More Integrated Systems Safety Assessment (MISSA)

Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2011,

"The increase of aerospace systems complexity has meant that by using existing methods for systems development, industry has reached a barrier to innovation and a risk to the competitiveness of products. This is characterised by an increasing time to market for new technologies, increasing costs to demonstrate proof of safety, a greater demand for skilled resources and a limitation on design itera ...
