Vicki Turner, FAA PBN Co-Lead
Joseph Tinsley, NATCA PBN Co-Lead
Date: October 18, 2018
The concepts in this presentation do not
constitute, or imply, a reopening of the Boston
Logan Airport Noise Study (BLANS)
Any designs identified for further development
must go through the environmental process

❖ An MOU was signed between Massport and FAA September,
2016
❖ Formation of 7100.41A PBN Full Working Group (FWG)
➢ May, 2018 FAA formed PBN FWG via FAA Order 7100.41 A
➢ FWG consists of Industry, Air Traffic Facilities, and Massport/MIT
➢ Reviewed BOS BLOCK 1 recommendations to determine operational
feasibility
➢ Designed procedures in an attempt to mitigate BOS BLOCK 1
concerns and address FAA procedural requirements

33L and 27 to 220 knots or immediate airport vicinity)
minimum safe airspeed in clean

1-D3 Modify RNAV SID from Runway Departure flight paths moved north
22L and 22R to initiate turns away from Hull and South Boston
sooner after takeoff and move
tracks further to the north away
from populated areas.

course (VI-CF) procedure
1-D3b Option B: Climb to altitude, then
direct (VA-DF) procedure
1-D3c Option C: Heading-based
procedure
1-A1 Implement an overwater RNAV Arrival flight paths moved overwater
approach procedure with RNP instead of over the Hull peninsula and
overlay to Runway 33L that points further south
follows the ground track of the
jetBlue RNAV Visual procedure
as closely as possible.

Restrict target climb speed for jet departures from Runways 33L
and 27 to 220 knots or minimum safe airspeed in clean
configuration, whichever is higher
Primary Benefit: Reduced airframe and total noise during climb
below 10,000 ft. (beyond immediate airport vicinity)
❖ A separate Work Group has been identified as this recommendation
falls outside the scope of the PBN Implementation Process
❑ Work Group is composed of the following FAA Lines of Business
➢ Flight Standards
➢ System Operations
➢ Operations Support Group
➢ Air Traffic Control
➢ Office of Environment and Energy (AEE)

Modify RNA SID from Runway 15R to move tracks further to
the north away from populated areas.

(1 -D3b)
Option B: Climb to altitude, then direct (VA-DF) procedure
Aircraft navigational limitations resulted in termination of the earlier VA-DF
procedure in 2011
❑ 2011 MITRE study confirmed aircraft navigational limitations
❑ Meetings with Industry resulted in recommendation of VI-CF procedures
❑ VI-CF procedures were developed and currently in use
Wide splay of aircraft tracks were rejected by community
❑ There were numerous community complaints from South Boston and Hull that
aircraft were too close/overflying the communities
❑ 2011 HMMH study commissioned by Massport confirmed wide splay of aircraft
tracks; Recommended VI-CF procedures to correct
❑ VI-CF procedures were developed and currently in use
The current Work Group reviewed the VA-DF option and determined Runway
heading to 520ft prior to turning to the first waypoint is not feasible
❑ Would cause heavy/low performing aircraft to fly over Hull due to delayed turns
because of slower climb rates
(1 -D3c)
Option C: Heading-based procedure
❖ Increases verbiage between Local Control, Departure Control and pilots
❖ Increases probability of readback/hearback errors, a safety issue
❖ Shortening departure paths cause conflicts with ROBUC STAR,
particularly with heavy/low performing aircraft
❖ Current procedures from 4R, 9, 15R, 22R/22L provided noise benefits to
shoreline communities
❖ Logan CAC requested RNAV SID departures in lieu of vector based
procedures
* Vector based procedures are in direct conflict with BLANS (BLANS Table 3-2)
(1-Al)
Implement an over water RNA approach procedure with RNP
overlay to Runway 33L that follows the ground track of the
JetBlue RNA Visual procedure as closely as possible
Primary Benefit: Arrival flight paths moved over water instead
of over the Hull peninsula and points further south
* The following designs are intended for use when operational conditions
allow, primarily when Nocturnal Procedures are in use during periods of
very low traffic volume
NOCTURNAL STARs
OBJECTIVE - Mirror the ROBUC, JFUND and OOSHN RNAV STARs
with runway transitions that connect to RNAV approaches
developed during evaluation of the Block 1 recommendations
New Nocturnal STARs
❑ LUNAA (RNAV) STAR (mirrors ROBUC)
❑ BUNNT (RNAV) STAR (mirrors JFUND)
❑ CGURL (RNAV) STAR (mirrors OOSHN)

RNAV (GPS) RWY 33L Recommendations
RNAV (GPS) RWY 33L - Introduction
❖ Development tasked to overlay to the extent possible
JetBlue RNAV Visual Rwy 33L Approach
❖ OSG-FPT has designed 7 designated versions of the
procedure
❖ All 7 had issues identified by either Industry, CAC or failed
safety criteria
RNAV (GPS) RWY 33L Approach (version 1 )
❖ Industry Concerns
❑ Airlines expressed concern that an offset final to runway 33L
can cause confusion to pilots. Pilots may assume approach
runway 32 thinking that it is runway 33L during night hours
❑ Being in a turn at low altitude when turning to final approach
❑ Reflections off water at night which could cause confusion for
the pilot
RNAV (GPS) RWY 33L Approach (version 3)
❖ Procedure was developed and flight inspected
❖ Flight Standards office approved a waiver to allow the use of a 39'
turn on final for this procedure
❖ Was reviewed by Massport and Community Advisory Committee
❖ Modifications currently being reviewed by Industry
* Industry expressed that they will be unwilling to fly turns greater than the 390 in the
final phase of flight, the maximum allowed
❖ Prior to publication of the procedure, Massport and CAC asked the
FAA to move route further from Hull
RNAV (GPS) RWY 33L Approach (version 2,4,5)
❖ Version 2,4,& 5: Concept of a straight-in final approach
segment based on an initial segment that overflies the
Nahant Causeway — while maintaining additional lateral
separation from Hull
❖ Concepts included various final approach fix altitudes,
segment lengths, and descent gradients greater than safety
standards allow
RNAV (GPS) RWY 33L Approach Versions 6 and 7
❖ Both version were proposed by Industry during collaborative Work
Group meetings
❖ Were attempts to mimic Jet Blue Special RNAV Visual while meeting
safety standards for RNAV GPS public procedures
❖ The tracks moved close to or over Hull (version 6)
❖ Moving the tracks created safety issues with obstructions (version 7)
Traffic Flow Implications
Use of RNP RWY33L will be limited when all traffic is not able to
accept clearance
RNP RWY 33L and ILS RWY 33L are not able to be used
simultaneously due to dissimilar tracks and lack of sequencing tool
RNP RYW33L and GPS RWY 33L can be used simultaneously due to
similarity of track paths
