Reduced complexity in the FABEC airspace
Thanks to a common DFS/MUAC airspace design project called "Cooperative Optimization of Boundaries, Routes and Airspace (COBRA)" one of the most complex airspace structures worldwide was improved. The results are more optimum profiles and shorter routes for airspace users, resulting in lower fuel consumption and emissions, and optimised capacity. Based on 2019 figures the saving potential is: 1,233 flight hours, 3,781 tons of fuel and 11,910 tons of CO2 annually.
