Tuesday, April 18, 2017 | Day 1 Morning & Plenary

Plenary Panel I: Global Harmonization
Chairs: Steve Bradford (FAA) & Michael Standar (SJU)
Rivanna ABC

This plenary explains the status of the GANP evolution via a keynote address from Steve Creamer, Director ANB, ICAO. The co-chairs will expand on the content of the NextGen – SESAR harmonization towards interoperability and how it links with the GANP and other ATM modernization programs. Our speaker from Japan will discuss the status of the CARATS program to further link the discussions towards key priorities where interoperability and harmonization will be crucial. The plenary will further the presentation into the specific plans and needs in Europe and the U.S. and the specific priorities, challenges and opportunities. Finally, the session will aim to trigger a good discussion between the panelists and the audience for a fair and honest debate about ongoing topics of activities, services and enablers in the aviation and ATM area.
