COPENHAGEN - AND BEYONDACHIEVING A GLOBAL APPROACH TO REDUCING AVIATION EMISSIONS At Greener Skies 2009 aviation leaders will outline their visionary plans to make aviation greener as they seek a rightful place among industry equals at the world most important climate change forum.
Aviation is responsible for 2% of man-made CO2 emissions worldwide

Industry
G8 and ICAO policy, 50% CO2 reduction by 2050
Emissions Trading System (ETS) EU directives are now in place
Effecting 2700 air carriers flying to and from Europe
The EU require details of both Revenue Tonne Kilometers (RTK) and CO2 emissions to be kept by all carriers

Problems with ETS…
ETS Aug. 31 deadline extended
UK's announced that it does not have "a firm and agreed list" of operators to be regulated by each member state
European Commission has not yet announced 2012 emissions cap for flight into Europe
Industry is waiting for further information on ETS

Carbon Footprint

Carbon Footprint
Every Kg of combusted jet-A1 is generating 3.16 kgs of CO2
i.e. 100 kgs jet-A1 corresponds to 316 kgs of CO2 which can be mathematically proven with Stoichiometric law
CH4 + 2(O2 + 3.76N2) -> CO2 + 2H2O + 7.52N2

Why Eco Pilot Training?
An important piece in the Airlines fuel saving strategy
![Page 9: Eco Pilot Training at OAA](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051001/56814dd9550346895dbb4218/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Airline:
Why?
• Environmental issues affecting all airlines – (Branding)
• Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) is coming
• Fuel cost savings – with training program, it will strengthen the airlines’ saving potential
![Page 10: Eco Pilot Training at OAA](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051001/56814dd9550346895dbb4218/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The Airline:
Expand into fuel saving behaviour within:
• Type rating and conversion training
• Recurrent training – LPC/OPC
Strengthening fuel saving behaviour and environmental thinking in pilots
![Page 11: Eco Pilot Training at OAA](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051001/56814dd9550346895dbb4218/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Target Customers:
• Small and medium sized Operators -
• Training must be flexible due to very different level of maturity among the Airlines fuel conservation programs
Fuel cost today per A/C per year:• Charter: €8-10 Million• Scheduled: €5-8 Million

Phase 1 Phase 1 Briefing
Executive Management decision Top priority… Fuel saving
Flight OperationsA review of ALL Operating Procedure
Review ALL fuel critical areas
Training of employeesChange of culture
![Page 16: Eco Pilot Training at OAA](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051001/56814dd9550346895dbb4218/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Phase 1 Phase 1 Training
• The challenge is to convince all flight crew member that a change in behaviour might be or is needed.
• The aviation business is generally “conservative”, and changes are sometimes met with scepticism.
• Many flight crew members operate and plan their operation like they always have.

Boeing fuel figures (examples)
How much is a 1% reduction in fuel consumption worth, according to Boeing?

A “Good Example”
Some airlines have focused on these important issues in the last 2-3 years.
In general, they have had some fuel saving campaign running, affecting the whole company.
One European operator among others reports an improved fuel efficiency of 4%, an North American operator reports an improved fuel efficiency of 5%.
![Page 26: Eco Pilot Training at OAA](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051001/56814dd9550346895dbb4218/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
A flight from Stockholm to Berlin with a Twin jet operation, with a fuel burn of 3500 kg, some examples of fuel savings initiatives:
Five minutes less APU usage 11 kgSingle engine taxiing for 10 minutes 58 kgTake-off with packs off 3 kgAcceleration altitude 800 ft instead of 1500 ft 24 kgOptimum speed with a lowered Cost Index 50 kgLanding with partial flap setting 8 kgIdle reverse on landing 15 kgEngine wash program 20 kgWeight reduction 500 kg (fuel or equipment) 15 kgRemoval of external dirt accumulation 29 kg
233 kg
A “Good Example” (Hard)

A Good Example (soft)
Flight crew chasing 1 min of short cuts 45 kgFlying optimum altitudes at all times 66 kgAlways enter winds aloft in FMS/FMGS 45 kgA Continuous Descent Approach (CDA) 50 kg
Σ206 kg
Total “hard+soft” = 439 kgs of fuel burnConclusion: Every kilo counts on every flight…..

Generic Business Case
• Charter Operator (small) with 10 A320 • Estimate 6 crew per A/C = 60 crew• Yearly fuel cost €8million x 10 = €80million
Savings potential 4-6% = € 3-5 million per year
Extra direct mandatory investment needed for the Operator on market price should give a return of investment of less than 12 months
