The introduction of Performance-Based Navigation (PBN) procedures represents the search for optimization and better utilization of airspace, and its deployment is crucial for modernization programs of air navigation in progress in several countries, including Brazil. The implementation of this new type of procedure introduced changes in aircraft operation, the insertion of new procedures for air traffic controllers and pilots and the introduction of automation systems to support air operations. The aim of this paper is to analyze the benefits of performing PBN procedures and use of Continuous Descent Approaches (CDA) on the route Galeão-Guarulhos. The study applied fast-time simulation with the Total Airspace and Air-port Modeler (TAAM) and considered nine different aircraft models. Fuel consumed is used as a performance parameter. Study results showed the benefits of applying these techniques vary according aircraft models..Downloads
