The Single European Sky: is it time to use a bigger (yard)stick?

Written by Aviation Advocacy on . Posted in Air traffic management

Late last year, the Performance Review Body (PRB) published its summary of the performance of Europe’s ANSPs. Much like the end-of-year school report, it noted each ANSP’s progress by subject (in this case, safety, environment, capacity and cost-efficiency) and identified a number of things to work on. It was a fairly positive message from the headmaster (and Chairman of the PRB) Mr Griffiths, despite many of the targets being missed. The performance of the ANSPs was considered satisfactory given the tight implementation schedule of the Single European Sky (SES) and complexity of ATM. Could do better. Should pay more attention, and talk less in class. Perhaps a B- from Mr Griffiths then? Unless you are an airline. In that case you risk wearing out the ‘F’ key as you give your assessment.
