Cost of Weight (CoW) and Aircraft Performance

• Airbus’ Performance Engineering Programme:

• Powerful software tool comprised of several modules.

• Uses Airbus’ aircraft performance reference data.

October 2012 Saving fuel: it's a team sport

Tool to accurately assess value of weight reduction

• Used by airline’s flight operations

aircraft performance teams.

• Can calculate impact on fuel

consumption of a given weight

change on a specific route.

• Monitors aircraft performance and

its degradation with time.

Light weight

seat covers,

carpet, cargo

containers?

Data: fuel efficiency programme foundation

Delivering and sustaining fuel efficient operations

requires data:

• to identify opportunities,

• to identify problems,

• to monitor and promote fuel efficient operations.

October 2012 Saving fuel: it's a team sport

Data collection is a crucial activity

Data set examples:

• APU utilisation

• Taxi times

• Engine thrust settings

• Flight profile speeds and altitudes

• Fuel consumption per flight phase

• Comparison of actual versus planned flight parameters

• Weight & Balance Parameters

Industry Actors

October 2012 Saving fuel: it's a team sport

• Fuel and Flight Efficiency can only be fully delivered

when all industry actors work together:

• Manufacturers’ design and build, with its suppliers,

aircraft which remain cost efficient throughout their lives.

• Aircraft Operators operate those aircraft in the most

efficient way.

• Air Traffic Management authorities and airports

provide an infrastructure that allows aircraft operators to

use their aircraft in the most efficient way.

• Regional, national and local governments create

environments where these objectives can be achieved.

Summary and Conclusion

• Airbus continues to:

• offer highly competitive aircraft…

• …accompanied by support and services to help operators use them

in the most efficient way possible,

• work with infrastructure providers to maximise the opportunities for

efficient operations.

October 2012 Saving fuel: it's a team sport

• Ways to save fuel are well known, but the

savings:

• must be balanced against all the costs,

• can only be realised when the initiative is fully deployed and

sustained.
