    The Very Large Scale Demonstrations (VLD) are designed to help fill the gap between the development and deployment phases and in particular, to:

    • Generate further confidence to support buy-in from main stakeholders including regulators for future deployments;

    • Significantly reduce the business risks for both operational stakeholders and industry, in particular for changes included in the Common Projects;

    • Provide further inputs to related standardisation activities;

    • Raise awareness regarding SESAR activities related to ATM performance issues and their results;

    • Accompany SESAR pioneers all the way to pre-deployment; and

    • Assess full-scale deployment readiness.
