1
0:00:07.00 --> 00:00:09.20
As we work to modernize air

2
0:00:09.20 --> 00:00:10.53
transportation in harmony

3
0:00:10.53 --> 00:00:12.10
with our global partners,

4
0:00:12.10 --> 00:00:13.40
sharing aviation information

5
0:00:13.40 --> 00:00:14.77
using common standards and

6
0:00:14.77 --> 00:00:15.77
technology will become

7
0:00:15.77 --> 00:00:16.77
vitally important.

8
0:00:16.77 --> 00:00:18.30
The Mini Global II

9
0:00:18.30 --> 00:00:20.40
demonstration, an FAA-led

10
0:00:20.40 --> 00:00:22.27
event at the Florida NextGen

11
0:00:22.27 --> 00:00:24.73
Test Bed in Daytona Beach,

12
0:00:24.73 --> 00:00:25.73
offered a look at what

13
0:00:25.73 --> 00:00:26.77
operational improvements can

14
0:00:26.77 --> 00:00:28.63
be realized with information

15
0:00:28.63 --> 00:00:29.80
exchange through global

16
0:00:29.80 --> 00:00:30.80
standards.

17
0:00:30.80 --> 00:00:31.80
Thien Ngo: The demonstration

18
0:00:31.80 --> 00:00:33.30
now, it basically really

19
0:00:33.30 --> 00:00:35.23
validated the ICAO SWIM

20
0:00:35.23 --> 00:00:36.23
concept.

21
0:00:36.23 --> 00:00:38.27
We took that to heart as a

22
0:00:38.27 --> 00:00:39.77
world community.

23
0:00:39.77 --> 00:00:41.53
NAR: Mini Global II is the

24
0:00:41.53 --> 00:00:42.53
second in a series of

25
0:00:42.53 --> 00:00:43.53
demonstrations showing how

26
0:00:43.53 --> 00:00:45.23
aeronautical, weather and

27
0:00:45.23 --> 00:00:46.37
flight information can be

28
0:00:46.37 --> 00:00:47.80
exchanged between countries

29
0:00:47.80 --> 00:00:49.23
and regions to enhance

30
0:00:49.23 --> 00:00:50.60
global aviation.

31
0:00:50.60 --> 00:00:52.03
Using real-world scenarios,

32
0:00:52.03 --> 00:00:53.53
the event showcased the

33
0:00:53.53 --> 00:00:55.53
potential operational value

34
0:00:55.53 --> 00:00:56.77
of international information

35
0:00:56.77 --> 00:00:57.77
sharing.

36
0:00:57.77 --> 00:00:58.87
Jim Eck: Our ability to

37
0:00:58.87 --> 00:01:00.47
exchange information rapidly

38
0:01:00.47 --> 00:01:01.90
and know that we're talking

39
0:01:01.90 --> 00:01:04.17
about the same thing is

40
0:01:04.17 --> 00:01:06.27
really important.

41
0:01:06.27 --> 00:01:08.00
NAR: Mini Global II demonstrated

42
0:01:08.00 --> 00:01:09.20
more efficient planning and

43
0:01:09.20 --> 00:01:10.30
rerouting of international

44
0:01:10.30 --> 00:01:11.50
flights in response to

45
0:01:11.50 --> 00:01:13.30
airspace constraints, the

46
0:01:13.30 --> 00:01:14.80
ability to identify aircraft

47
0:01:14.80 --> 00:01:16.27
through automation, and

48
0:01:16.27 --> 00:01:17.37
collaborative metering of

49
0:01:17.37 --> 00:01:18.60
international flights to

50
0:01:18.60 --> 00:01:19.70
increase efficiency.

51
0:01:19.70 --> 00:01:20.70
Stuart Wilson: The

52
0:01:20.70 --> 00:01:21.70
importance of this

53
0:01:21.70 --> 00:01:22.70
demonstration is really

54
0:01:22.70 --> 00:01:23.70
allowing all these ANSPs and

55
0:01:23.70 --> 00:01:24.70
industry partners to come

56
0:01:24.70 --> 00:01:26.23
together, and really find a

57
0:01:26.23 --> 00:01:27.90
solution that allow us to

58
0:01:27.90 --> 00:01:30.40
perform our goals.

59
0:01:30.40 --> 00:01:31.67
NAR: Sharing a common picture of

60
0:01:31.67 --> 00:01:32.93
air traffic, weather and

61
0:01:32.93 --> 00:01:34.53
other aviation information

62
0:01:34.53 --> 00:01:35.83
improves safety and

63
0:01:35.83 --> 00:01:37.93
efficiency by allowing air

64
0:01:37.93 --> 00:01:39.30
traffic managers to make

65
0:01:39.30 --> 00:01:41.10
decisions earlier and with

66
0:01:41.10 --> 00:01:43.03
more information.

67
0:01:43.03 --> 00:01:44.80
The goal is for the aviation

68
0:01:44.80 --> 00:01:45.90
community to develop

69
0:01:45.90 --> 00:01:47.70
implementation plans for

70
0:01:47.70 --> 00:01:49.30
information exchange based

71
0:01:49.30 --> 00:01:50.63
on their own needs.

72
0:01:50.63 --> 00:01:52.53
This, while encouraging the

73
0:01:52.53 --> 00:01:53.63
aviation industry in their

74
0:01:53.63 --> 00:01:55.53
respective regions to adopt

75
0:01:55.53 --> 00:01:56.53
the new standards and

76
0:01:56.53 --> 00:01:58.37
technologies required to

77
0:01:58.37 --> 00:01:59.50
make information exchange

78
0:01:59.50 --> 00:02:00.53
possible.

79
0:02:00.53 --> 00:02:02.00
The end result - seamless

80
0:02:02.00 --> 00:02:03.53
interoperability and

81
0:02:03.53 --> 00:02:04.83
harmonization that provide

82
0:02:04.83 --> 00:02:06.37
operational value to

83
0:02:06.37 --> 00:02:08.70
aviation stakeholders.

84
0:02:08.70 --> 00:02:09.97
The FAA will continue to

85
0:02:09.97 --> 00:02:11.60
work through ICAO to

86
0:02:11.60 --> 00:02:12.80
increase international

87
0:02:12.80 --> 00:02:14.10
partnerships and data

88
0:02:14.10 --> 00:02:15.10
exchange.

89
0:02:15.10 --> 00:02:17.10
Jim Eck: As more and more

90
0:02:17.10 --> 00:02:18.47
people come into the

91
0:02:18.47 --> 00:02:19.83
demonstration program

92
0:02:19.83 --> 00:02:21.73
itself, they'll get a better

93
0:02:21.73 --> 00:02:25.23
understanding of what we're

94
0:02:25.23 --> 00:02:28.23
trying to achieve.
