SECTION 1
GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR THE
ESTABLISHMENT OF AIRSPACE STRUCTURES
1.1 INTRODUCTION
1.1.1 Planning Considerations
1.1.1.1 The "General Guidelines for the Establishment of Airspace Structures" have been developed by ECAC Member States on the basis of best practices in use in some States, agreed Flexible Use of Airspace (FUA) principles as stated in the FUA Reference Documents and in accordance with the directions for change identified in the “EUROCONTROL Airspace Strategy for the ECAC States”.
1.1.1.2 Airspace organisation and management should evolve to a more collaborative function at an international level in order to support the ECAC’s collective responsibility for all aspects of planning, design, update, civil/military co-ordination, regulation and airspace legislation.
1.1.1.3 The main objective of airspace management is to maximise the efficient use of airspace whilst maintaining the level of safety applicable to air traffic operations within such airspace. In order to achieve this objective, the airspace structures2 throughout the ECAC airspace should be based on common criteria with regards to airspace design, lateral and vertical delineation, and designation.
1.1.1.4 Within the context of airspace planning and design, the attention of airspace planners and designers is drawn to the following ICAO and EUROCONTROL safety requirements which are not limited to :
.
ATS safety management as per ICAO Annex 11, para 2.26;
.
Safety assessments as per ICAO Doc 4444, Chapter 2;
.
Guidance to ATM Safety Regulators contained in ESARR 3;
