One of the SESAR Exploratory Research projects in which the Aircraft Operations Lab has participated to address the climate impact of aviation is FlyATM4E. The project studied flight data during different weather scenarios, as well as vertical and horizontal flight paths, to identify climate-optimised aircraft trajectories. The optimisation process showed a potential reduction of non-CO2Continue reading “The FlyATM4E project, “a SESAR success story””

New article: “Fast 4D flight planning under uncertainty through parallel stochastic path simulation”
In this publication, the Aircraft Operations Lab UC3M presents a novel flight planning methodology to generate weather-optimal 4D flight plans under uncertain conditions. The authors of the article are Daniel González-Arribas, Fateme Baneshi, Eduardo Andrés, Manuel Soler, Aniel Jardines and Javier García-Heras. ABSTRACT The Air Traffic Management system is evolving to deal with efficiency, capacity,Continue reading “New article: “Fast 4D flight planning under uncertainty through parallel stochastic path simulation””
