Executive Summary

Table 1 summarizes XX airspace RVSM technical, operational, and total risks. Figure 1 presents collision risk estimate trends during the period from XXX 20XX to XXX 20XX.

xx Airspace – estimated annual flying hours = xx hours (note: estimated hours based on Dec 20xx traffic sample data)

RASMAG XX Total Risk (PREVIOUS RASMAG)	XX x 10-9	5.0 x 10-9	Above/Below TLS
Technical Risk	XX x 10-9	2.5 x 10-9	Below Technical TLS
Operational Risk	XX x 10-9	-	-
Total Risk	XX x 10-9	5.0 x 10-9	Above/Below TLS

Table 2 presents a summary of the LHD causes within XXX airspace from XX 20XX until XX 20XX.

Code	LHD Category Description	No.
A	Flight crew fails to climb or descend the aircraft as cleared	x
B	Flight crew climbing or descending without ATC clearance	x
C	Incorrect operation or interpretation of airborne equipment	x
D	ATC system loop error	x
E	Coordination errors in the ATC -to-ATC transfer of control responsibility as a result of human factors issues	x
F	ATC transfer of control coordination errors due to technical issues	x
G	Aircraft contingency leading to sudden inability to maintain level	x
H	Airborne equipment failure and unintentional or undetected level change	x
I	Turbulence or other weather related cause leading to unintentional or undetected change of flight level	x
J	TCAS resolution advisory; flight crew correctly climb or descend following the resolution advisory	x
K	TCAS resolution advisory; flight crew incorrectly climb or descend following the resolution advisory	x
L	An aircraft being provided with RVSM separation is not RVSM approved	x
M	Others	x
Total	x

FOR REPORTS FROM EMAS, PLEASE INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Executive Summary

Table 1 provides the XX airspace horizontal risk estimates. Figure 1 presents the lateral and longitudinal collision risk estimate trends for XX airspace during the period XXX 20XX to XXX 20XX.

Risk	Risk Estimation	TLS	Remarks
RASMAG XX Lateral Risk (PREVIOUS RASMAG)	XX x 10-9	5.0 x 10-9	Below TLS
RASMAG XX Longitudinal Risk (PREVIOUS RASMAG)	XX x 10-9	5.0 x 10-9	Below TLS
Lateral Risk	XX x 10-9	5.0 x 10-9	Below TLS
Lateral Risk	XX x 10-9	5.0 x 10-9	Below TLS

Table 2 contains a summary of Large Lateral Deviations (LLD) and Large Longitudinal Errors (LLE) received by EMA for XX airspace.

Code	Deviation Description	No.
A	Flight crew deviates without ATC clearance in the horizontal dimension	x
B	Flight crew incorrect operation or interpretation of airborne equipment	x
C	Flight crew waypoint insertion error, due to correct entry of incorrect position or incorrect entry of correct position	x
D	ATC system loop error	x
E	Coordination errors in the ATC-to-ATC transfer of control responsibility as a result of human factors issues	x
F	Coordination errors in the ATC-to-ATC transfer of control responsibility as a result of equipment outage or technical issues	x
G	Navigation errors due to airborne equipment failure leading to a deviation in the horizontal dimension of which notification was not received by ATC or notified too late for action	x
H	Turbulence or other weather related causes (other than approved) leading to a deviation in the horizontal dimension;	x
I	An aircraft was provided with reduced horizontal separation minima but did not meet the RNP/RSP/RCP specification	x
J	Others	x
Total	x
