SCIENTIFIC AND PRACTICAL ASPECTS OF FLIGHT OPERATIONS WITH RVSM, PBN, CATII, CATIII, EDTO/ETOPS, TCAS, EGPWS, EFB
Abstract
The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) regulates the need for issuance of special operators operating permits such as: for operations with the use of standards Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum (RVSM); Performance-based Navigation (PBN); auto landings on CATII CATIII ICAO categories; EDTO/ETOPS (Extended Twain OPerationS/Extended Diversion Time Operations) standards for the operation of turbine-powered airplane flights lasting more than 60 minutes to spare en-route with increased care at an alternate airfield and flight operations at the twin-engine plane over terrain without radio navigation; with the use of Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance Systems (TCAS); with the use of Ground Proximity Warning Systems (GPWS) and with the use of Electronic Flight Bag (EFB). The ability to meet these requirements follows from the analysis of tactical, technical and operational characteristics of avionics, maintenance and repair programs (MRO), aircraft maintenance organizations (AMO) and a number of other factors. It should be based on a scientific approach and strict satisfaction of all requirements of legal and regulatory documents. The ability to use TCAS, EGPWS and EFB requires a comprehensive scientific analysis, taking into account all the operational factors. The article provides the performance of some scientific and practical aspects related to the application of the above mentioned standards and systems. Some modern methods of statistical analysis of the position and movement parameters of the aircraft are used. The possibility of more accurate estimates of the aircraft deviation in height and lateral deviation, as well as the decision on the conformity requirements for accuracy is shown.
