“…The Fe 3 simulator enables a testing environment for UASs and manned aviation operations with weather uncertainty and communication, navigation, and sensor impacts, along with conflict resolution services. Boeing's SkyWay simulator, which is an integrated ATM/UTM simulator for autonomous operations, is used especially for testing contingency management procedures in the Galician SkyWay project [39,40]. The SkyWay simulator also includes a detect-and-avoid feature for UASs to avoid collisions.…”

The emerging field of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) holds great promise for revolutionizing transportation by enabling the efficient, safe, and sustainable movement of people and goods in urban and regional environments. AAM encompasses a wide range of electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft and infrastructure that support their operations. In this work, we first present a new airspace structure by considering different layers for standard-performing vehicles (SPVs) and high-performing vehicles (HPVs), new AAM services for accommodating such a structure, and a holistic contingency management concept for a safe and efficient traffic environment. We then identify the requirements and development process of a testing and simulation infrastructure for AAM demonstrations, which specifically aim to explore the decentralized architecture of the proposed concept and its use cases. To demonstrate the full capability of AAM, we develop an infrastructure that includes advanced U-space services, real and simulated platforms that are suitable for future AAM use cases such as air cargo delivery and air taxi operations, and a co-simulation environment that allows all of the AAM elements to interact with each other in harmony. The considered infrastructure is envisioned to be used in AAM integration-related efforts, especially those focusing on U-space service deployment over a complex traffic environment and those analyzing the interaction between the operator, the U-space service provider (USSP), and the air traffic controller (ATC).

“…Details of this study can be found in [25] which include descriptions of actual flight testing of this implementation. Moreover, contingency scenarios within the project are tested through the developed simulator [26]. The SkyWay project creates the basis for defining the requirements needed for the much broader contingency management development considered here and inspires the studies conducted under the Air Mobility Urban -Large Experimental Demonstrations (AMU-LED) project in terms of analyzing the feasibility and development of a system wide contingency management strategies for the future AAM system.…”

Contingency management in aviation is a vital concept that ensures safety, security, and efficiency in operations. To fully benefit from the envisioned Advanced Air Mobility system, the need of a structured and system-wide contingency planning will be even more important since the air transportation system paradigm will shift into a highly automated system that includes high-density traffic. The complexity will increase considerably by enlarging the operations to the underserved urban areas. Therefore, the new system needs to provide a more agile, accessible, and flexible environment. In this paper, the need of a contingency management from a holistic approach is described and the base requirements to build such a system are defined by considering the roles and responsibilities of each stakeholder that are defined for the U-space system. Alongside the defined requirements, the tasks of the stakeholders and the expected main contingency sources are explained to have a better understanding of the system. The objective of this work is to provide the base guidelines that help to set appropriate actions by relevant stakeholder under an adverse condition which might compromise the safety and security of the operations within the air traffic network.
