Keywords: fully automated unmanned ATS

Part of the Innovative Future Air Transport System (IFATS) project was the developed of a 4D trajectory based fully automated ATS. The simulation demonstrates one day in Frankfurt (approx. 1000 aircraft). Normal situation as well as degraded situation like thunderstorm, degraded performance or emergency aircraft are demonstrated.
