Flight Procedure Design, coding and flight inspection of P-RNAV and SID-STAR routes

In 2010 and 2011, airsight has been awarded a series of contracts for the design, encoding, charting and validation of conventional and P-RNAV Flight Procedures in Romania.

The first contract aimed to develop Standard Arrival Routes (STARs) and Standard Instrument Departures (SIDs) within the Arad TMA.

The routes were designed by airsight according to ICAO requirements (ICAO Doc. 8168 – PANS OPS, Doc. 9906 – Quality Assurance Manual for Flight Procedure Design, ICAO Doc. 9613 – Performance-Based Navigation Manual) and with the objectives of optimising the route structure for Air Traffic Control and airspace users in terms of safety, workload, capacity, fuel consumption and environmental consideration (such as aircraft noise).

Within this project, airsight also managed and supervised the coding, charting, and flight validation of the designed procedures. These inspections aimed to ensure the flyability and validity of the new procedures prior their final acceptance by the responsible civil aviation authorities.
