Approach and Landing Procedures for Airports “Nikola Tesla” and “Batajnica” Using RNP AR APCH and Baro-VNAV

Abstract

An idea of introducing civil operations at military airport “Batajnica” near Belgrade, Serbia has been conceived recently as an answer to the latest challenges of the air transport market. In that case, the situation in the terminal airspace of both “Nikola Tesla” (LYBE) and “Batajnica” (LYBT) airports would change completely and therefore the new circumstances need to be considered and terminal airspace optimised accordingly. An important part of the optimisation process is design of approach and landing procedures, as well as strategical separation of inbound flows. Some of the most advanced concepts and solutions in civil aviation have been applied in design of the proposed procedures: Performance-Based Navigation, Baro-VNAV and CDA which are already being implemented very successfully worldwide.
