BOARD OF DIRECTORS' REPORT During the summer mont
hs measures has been required to secure the resources for managing this challenge. The delay on average was 0.02 (0.05) minutes per flight, which is better than the EU objective for the Danish-Swedish airspace, which was 0.10 (0.10) minutes per flight. The air traffic navigation services provided for the Swedish Armed Forces and civil airports have been carried out according to the signed agreements. LFV carries out a continuing dialogue and follow-up of the deliveries to these clients. During the year LFV has, together with the Swedish Armed Forces, participated in planning and carrying out several military exercises. During the largest one, the national exercise Aurora in September, LFV gave active support to the Swedish Armed Forces to carry out the exercise successfully. This without affecting the civil air traffic negatively in any major way. The key to success in this case has been good cooperation, good planning, as well as engaged staff. The Swedish Armed Forces In Sweden, unlike the rest of the world, the civil and military air navigation services are entirely integrated. LFV is in charge of air navigation services at all stages of preparedness, for both civil and military aviation. LFV enjoys a close collaboration with the Swedish Armed Forces, which aims to create effective and robust air navigation services. This collaboration also involves training LFV’s air traffic controllers and training the Swedish Armed Forces’ reserve officers in air navigation service. LFV participates in national and international meetings, where LFV’s, as well as the Swedish Armed Forces' interests are seen to, according to the main agreement between the parties. The Swedish Armed Forces currently has seven airports in Sweden, where LFV staff is performing air traffic services. At one of these airports, Vidsel, a new air control tower was inaugurated in August. The Swedish Armed Forces has commissioned the tower and the Swedish Defense Materiel Administration, FMV, has had the new tower built. In the technology area unceasing new development is in progress, as well as continuous updates of existing systems. Since 2012, LFV has been a civil aviation authority with specific responsibility for emergency preparedness, as well as in LFV ANNUAL REPORT 2017 states of heightened preparedness. LFV also has the role of Duty Officer. Renewed total defense planning and strengthened security protection During the last year LFV has worked intensely with the Government commissions "Renewed total defense planning" and "Strengthened security protection". Both areas are induced through changes in the security policy situation, requiring new and increased demands on LFV, the rest of the transport sector, and society at large. LFV has chosen to work with the commissions in parallel, based on the view that robust security protection, in all parts, is a prerequisite for the total defense planning of LFV. The total defense planning has been carried out in project format, partly financed by so called 2:4 funds from the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency. The Government 2:4 Crisis Preparedness grant is an important instrument of governance for contributing to the Government's objectives for societal security. The results from the project is an action plan for several years, among other thing including preparedness planning, education, and infrastructure ventures. In particular to contribute to a stronger and more secure Sweden. When it comes to a more robust security protection, several improvements has been done, among others a review of our security agreements and our management of operation information. For both commissions, LFV has intensified the collaboration with, and control of partners, as well as suppliers. In addition to the work in ”Government agency co-operation for national interest area Transportation” (SOTP), coordinated by the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency, networks has been created in collaboration with the other transport authorities. Aviation safety LFV’s primary objective for aviation safety is for LFV to work proactively to continuously develop aviation saftey. The work is to be carried out proactively to maintain good flight security. LFV shall not be conducive in any incident related to aviation safety, leading to people being injured or losing their lives. The aviation safety work permeates the organisation at all levels and is included as a natural part in all processes, in the daily work, but also in the long-term, strategic work. The starting point is to work proactively with risks, instead of waiting until incidents have occured, which later are to be investigated. LFV’s focus areas for aviation safety work include runway incursions, separation minima infringements, airspace intrusion, flying without transponders, technical disruptions, and drones. LFV has achieved the high aviation safety objectives set for 2017, which entails that LFV’s aviation safety is very good. The reporting tendency remains high as well. 3,407 (2,220) disruption reports were registered in 2017. During the year slightly above 20 incident investigations have been conducted to analyse affecting factors and carry out measures to increase aviation safety. The aviation safety index, which is based on risk classifications of separation minima infringements, and runway incursions in relation to the number of movements, measures LFV’s risk exposure on the basis of the severity of the incidents and repetitions of the event. The objective is for the aviation safety index to be below 3 (3), which it has been throughout the year, and it was 0.09 (1.2) in December 2017. Runway incursions continues to be an important focus area in aviation safety. Implementation of activities decided in previous year's programme for reducing runway incursions continues. During the year 2 (1) incidents were preliminarily assessed with severity A or B. In 2017 64 (84) runway incidents on runways were reported, which is lower, compared to the previous year. LFV is deemed to have contributed to 9 (11) incidents. In 2017, there has been 35 (35) separation minima infringements. LFV is deemed to have directly contributed to 22 (20) incidents. Separation minima infringements refer to situations where two aircraft come too close to each other. For operations conducted within NUAC’s Swedish organisation – i.e. the control centers in Stockholm and Malmö – the objective for 2017 was for the number of events per 100,000 flying hours, in which the air navigation service was directly involved, and for which the severity of the event was judged to be A, B, or C, was to be a maximum of 3 (1) for each of ACC and APP, respectively. NUAC fulfils this objective as the number of incidents per 100,000 flying hours amounted to 0.53 (0.28) and 0.00 (0.00). LFV follows deviation reports for the remote controlled air traffic 35
