Honeywell to Support European ATM Research Project

The European Commission has awarded Honeywell a contract to support its development of an automated ATM (air traffic management) system in Europe based on advanced airborne CNS (communication, navigation and surveillance) technologies.

Honeywell's role will be to support the EC's iFLY research project, which is attempting to develop an advanced airborne self-separation design and a highly automated ATM.  The undertaking, which is led by the National Aerospace Laboratory (NLR), aims to improve efficiency and reduced delays in Europe for aircraft operating in high density traffic areas.

More specifically, Honeywell will analyze pilot and controller responsibilities, along with their safety and complexity, as well as a subsequent assessment of ground and airborne system requirements.

IFLY was initiated under the EC's Sixth Framework Program for Research. 11-15-2007.
