Position Paper IFALPA: In-flight Flight Crew Rest Facilities
26 août2019 - This position paper provides generic guidance for the design and specification of dedicated flight crew rest facilities provided for the exclusive use of flight crew on commercial transport aircraft operated with augmented flight crews. The main purpose of such facilities is to provide flight crew members with an adequate rest environment before commencement of the next in-flight duty period.
Position Paper IFALPA: Downlink of pilot selected levels
22 August 2019 - For some time now, several ATS Units (ATSUs) have been using an alert function that is based on data sent by the Enhanced Mode S transponder. This transponder version provides a down-link of various airborne parameters that includes the flight level or altitude selected by the pilots in the altitude window of the associated auto-flight system. If the pilot selected flight level or altitude does not correspond with the cleared level/altitude stored by the controller in the ATM (Air Traffic Management) system, an alert is triggered at the controller station. This warning is used by the controller to verify the pilot selected level/altitude and provides a valuable safety net.
