FANS

Fly more fuel-efficient transoceanic routes that reduce crew workload through more automated procedures.

  • Saves fuel with more efficient oceanic routing
  • Reduces need for step climbing
  • No need to monitor HF frequencies
  • Eliminates voice position reports
  • Up-link clearances accepted directly into flight plan
  • Fewer ground delays with solid departure times when flying oceanic routes
  • Allows pilots to communicate with Air Traffic Control directly via datalink
  • Reduces crew workload—no need for pilots to monitor HF radios for incoming message traffic
