GreenLandings® is analogous to the just-in-time manufacturing process for aviation’s “day of” production process. 

GreenLandings® works to move more passengers where they want to be, when they want to be there. GreenLandings® does this by tactically controlling the landing time of the aircraft from a system perspective to put the right parts (aircraft, gates, mechanics, etc.) at just the right place, at just the right time. 

 

The GreenLandings® concept of operations is built on three basic ingredients:

 

GreenLandings® was developed as a cloud based, AI tool for all aircraft users, business jets, General Aviation, airlines, airports and Civil Aviation Authorities. It may also be used by those working in the aviation industry for whom predictability of aircraft arrival times is beneficial, such as U.S. Customs or the Transportation Security Administration.

GreenLandings® has been independently validated to quickly/profitably reduce aviation delays, congestion and excess CO2, with zero analysis to the contrary.

Technology, data, software, computational power, optimization engine, communication capability and real time operational flexibility are all available and in place to make GreenLandings® a reality starting within months.

Additionally, GreenLandings® moves an operator’s/airline’s “day of” production process into the 21^st century, Big Data, Supply Chain world, allowing aviation to reduce emissions and costs (Aviation Needs a New Direction — Driven by Vision and Leadership).

GreenLandings® is an operator/airline/airport centric, cloud based, “real time” arrival/departure landing time management solution, based on the operator’s/airline’s, ATC’s and airport’s “day of” requirements (business and safety). 

 

GreenLandings® is a fully automated, business-driven, pre-conditioning landing time management process using existing equipment, systems and procedures.

 

GreenLandings® predicts problems hours prior to the aircraft’s arrival and provides a real time, in-flight, aircraft by aircraft, system solution before the problem can occur (defect prevention). 

 

GreenLandings® reduces an operator’s/airline’s landing time variability. In fact, “day of” variability is a huge factor that negatively impacts passengers, product quality, airport congestion, labor and the environment. Variability also drives excess costs for airlines, running up an annual tab into the billons annually for large airlines and drives other costs skyward (Airline 2019 Cost Analysis, Forbes.com).

Further, the GreenLandings® process easily crosses sovereign airspace, FIR and ATC sector boundaries, a highly complex political/technical problem for any ATC centric Demand Management program. In effect, GreenLandings® is a long range, business based, demand management overlay to the ATC system.

GreenLandings® keeps costs low and allows quick implementation by focusing on an individual operator/airport/airline. The first operator/airline/airport can be online within months and region-wide within three years. The system is easily scalable, with an ROI measured in months.

GreenLandings® has over ten years of real-world operational experience with major airlines including Delta, USAir, TWA, and others at the world’s busiest airports (ATL, MSP, DTW, CLT, DXB, STL and DFW). GreenLandings® has posted rapid, cost-effective benefits to on-time performance, passenger experience, labor, ATC, noise reduction, CO2 reduction, lower fuel burn, better aircraft/gate utilization and reduced operating costs.

 

GreenLandings® has been independently validated in live operations by FAA (FAA Task J Report), Embry-Riddle University (Dr. Vitaly Guzhva and Dr. Ahmed Abdelghany), Georgia Tech (Dr. John-Paul Clark), GE Aviation (Dubai FLOW Report), Veracity Engineering and MCRI, with zero analysis to the contrary.

The GreenLandings® Solution 

GreenLandings® is an operator/airline/airport centric, cloud based, “real time” landing time management solution, based on an operator, pilot, airline, ATC and airport’s “day of” requirements (business and safety).

 

GreenLandings® is a fully automated, business driven, landing time management process, hours prior to landing, using existing equipment, systems and procedures.

 

GreenLandings® predicts problems hours prior to arrival and provides a real time, “in flight”, aircraft by aircraft, system solution before the problem ever occurs (defect prevention).

 

GreenLandings® reduces the aircraft’s landing time variability. In fact, “day of” variability is a huge factor that negatively impacts pilots, aircraft, passengers, product quality, airport

 

congestion, labor, the environment, excess costs (Billons annually for individual large airlines) and drives the operator’s/airline’s costs skyward (Airline 2019 Cost Analysis, Forbes.com). 

 

Further, the GreenLandings® process easily crosses sovereign airspace, FIR and ATC sector boundaries, a highly complex political/technical problem for any ATC centric Demand Management program. In effect, GreenLandings® is a long range, business based, demand management overlay to the ATC system. 

 

By focusing on an individual operator/airport/airline,  GreenLandings® is low cost and quick to implement. The first airport can be online within months and region wide (NAS, Eurocontrol, etc.) within 3 years. The system is scalable, with an ROI measured in months.

 

GreenLandings® has over 10 years of real-world operational experience with major airlines including Delta, USAir, TWA, Emirates and others, at the world’s busiest airports (ATL, MSP, DTW, CLT, DXB, STL and DFW).

 

GreenLandings® has posted rapid, cost-effective benefits to on time performance, passenger experience, labor, ATC, noise reduction, CO2 reduction, lower fuel burn, better aircraft/gate utilization and reduced operating costs. 

 

GreenLandings® has been independently validated in live operations by FAA (FAA Task J Report), Embry-Riddle University (Dr. Vitaly Guzhva and Dr. Ahmed Abdelghany), Georgia Tech (Dr. John-Paul Clark), GE Aviation (Dubai FLOW Report), Veracity Engineering and MCRI, with zero analysis to the contrary.
