September 14 PARC CWG/32 Jerome CONDIS - AIRBUS Baseline 2 perspectives SESAR Deployment & Airbus Plans September 14 Europe short-term priority: ATN/VDL2 infrastructure maturity • DLS IR (EC 29/2009) update • 1st EC consultation workshop (17 Jun 2014) Global consensus: key to address the data link issues as early as possible to secure return on investments as soon as possible, maintain the momentum and reestablish confidence from users • 2nd consultation workshop is planned on 09 Oct 2014 • Proposed two-step approach • Step 1: “suspend” the obligation requirements until a validated technical session is available, while maintaining legal certainty. Relaxing the dates, adoption in Nov 2014 SSC • Step 2: “review” and “re-assess” the regulation and the legal elements on the basis of sound technical solution, possibly enlarging scope to B2 (consistency with PCP) • ATN/VDL2 Maturity • In parallel, SESAR has issued a RFP for ATN/VDL2 Maturity project (SJU/LC/0109-CFT, VDL Mode 2 Measurement, analysis and simulation campaign) RFP now public, answers by 31 Oct 2014, execution Jan 2015-Jun 2016 Page 2 © AIRBUS Operations S.A.S.

September 14 SESAR follow-up and outcomes • SESAR 2020 • SJU completion date will be extended with limited change of membership • Continuation of SESAR 1 phase during the next European budget period (2014-2020 leading to activities up to 2023) • ATM Master Plan step 2 & 3 concepts validation based on airborne and ground prototypes and/or simulations • ATM Master Plan step 1 & 2 concepts operations validation based on revenue flights in real environments through Very Large Demonstrations (VLD) • SESAR Deployment Page 3 © AIRBUS Operations S.A.S. All rights reserved. Confidential and proprietary document. September 14 SESAR 2020 VLD • “Fill the gap” between the R&D and the deployment phases • Very large demonstrations (VLD) based on revenue flights involving a significant number of aircraft from different airlines operating in different environments • Reinforce the confidence of the airlines in the programme as it will give them the opportunity to measure the benefits of the new systems and procedures on their revenue flights • Support industrialization decisions as it reduces significantly the business risks for airlines and for the airborne industry • Prompt synchronization between ground and airborne deployments • Complement validation of VDL2 enhancements on a large scale basis • Call For Tender in progress • Scope and timeline under definition • CDA, RTA, D-TAXI and i4D strong candidates Page 4 © AIRBUS Operations S.A.S.

Improved time guidance Indication of RTA mode RESOURCES © AIRBUS Operations Enhanced meteorological data processing September 14 B2 standards • FAA implementation for “B2 Final” (Segment 2) planned from 2023 as per the NGIP. Final Investment Decision is planned for 2018 • SESAR Master Plan initiates deployment based on “B2 Initial Release” from 2018 but does not include any plan to introduce future revisions yet • No operational driver/needs identified so far • no plan to introduce dynamic RNP management for EU airspace • no plan to introduce advanced ASAS services • no EU ANSP plan to take over on AOC/SWIM for Wind forecast updates • European and US implementation timescales may differ for “B2 Final” • Backwards compatibility between B2 Final and B2 Initial needs to be considered as part of the definition of a B2/B2n migration path Page 8 © AIRBUS Operations S.A.S.

September 14 Airbus B2 roadmap • Airbus plans to build an A320 FANS A+C in compliance with B2 standards (Mar 2014) to fulfill the PCP Implementing Rule and support SESAR 2020 Very Large Demonstrations • Opportunity for roll-over on A330/A340 may be considered • Airbus will focus on A320 first (SESAR firstly targets short-haul aircraft), targeting both forward-fit and retrofit opportunities • Retrofit by software upgrade from a FANS B+ aircraft • Airbus will develop a FANS A+C upgrade based on “B2 Final” for all aircraft programs when deemed relevant • For A320s already equipped with FANS A+C (B2), objective would be to propose a retrofit by software upgrade Page 9 © AIRBUS Operations S.A.S.

September 14 Airbus B2 roadmap : air/ground networks • Current situation and long-term roadmap • First priority Need to secure VDL2 infrastructure robustness to restore confidence in ATN B1 systems AND secure technical baseline for ulterior data link steps (e.g. B2) • Prepare the transition to ATN/IPS, which is the natural long-term A/G network technology • How to ensure the smoothest transition • Short to mid term Capitalize on existing ACARS and ATN/OSI to maximize for all the community, return on huge investments made on latest FANS 1/A and ATN B1 products ⇒ B2 Initial deployment in Europe will rely on ATN/OSI over VDL2 validated infrastructure ⇒ In parallel, SESAR investigates opportunities to add SATCOM capability to ATN/OSI (Iris Precursor project) • Long-term Introduce ATN/IPS for avionics when next generation IP-native ATS data link comm means (e.g. LDACS, IRIS) emerge (2028+) Page 10 © AIRBUS Operations S.A.S.
