“…using the three GNSS plus ADS-B we could replace all other Navaids and radar and have truly marvelous global coverage and unification. We could also get rid of cockpit windows. If we have effective CDTI (Cockpit Display of Traffic Information), we could get rid of much more, UAV’s are pointing to the first use of pilot-less aircraft for cargo shuttles by 2020!”

Avoid a skills gap
The vision presented in the Roadmapis very important for the 10 “new
countries”• to avoid a skills gap and• to avoid a brain drain to other partsof the world (Europe!)

(from presentation by Prof. Z. Goraj of Warsaw Univ. of Technology at UAVNET Workshop No. 13)
• Investment into the AAV R&D&P can accelerate this process
• No need for big money - it is not the Airbus case!• SMEs & universities can play the primary role • Eastern & Central European countries possess the
necessary experience, technological knowledge, well educated and skilled manpower and research facilities
• Clear vision, political acceptance, coordination and motivation to act is urgently needed.
• So little and so much is needed

The U.S. with government support is moving ahead
• NASA and industry (ACCESS 5) have a budget of >$140 million
• U.S. is investing more than $15 billion in the upcoming years to accelerate the development of AAV systems, platforms, and payloads so that these systems will be capable of performing necessary security missions.
In the past Europe invested ~ €15 million, under the FP5 program, in UAVNET, USICO, CAPECON and HELIPLAT … and about €5 million for IFATS in FP6
But, Europe does not have any strategic initiative for further developments for civil AAVs.
European research Commissioner Philippe Busquin says. "Americans have made better long-term strategic choices."
