In the Western part of the ICAO EUR Region, the European Commission (EC) launched at the end of the nineties the Single European Sky (SES) initiative to remove the fragmentation of the European Air Traffic Management (ATM) system with the ultimate objective to eventually implement an efficient, safe, integrated operating airspace functioning as if a single entity would efficiently manage European airspace. A first legislative package (SES1) was adopted in 2004 to set a harmonised regulatory framework and create a level playing field for the provision of air navigation services in view of achieving a modern European ATM system. It consisted of four Basic Regulations (N° 549/2004, 550/2004, 551/2004 and 552/2004) covering the provision of air navigation services (ANS), the organisation and use of airspace and the interoperability of the European Air Traffic Management Network (EATMN).
A second legislative package (SES2) was adopted in 2009 focussing at increasing the overall performance of the air traffic management system in Europe and also extending the competences of the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) to cover ATM/ANS and airports. Among the key regulatory and operational instruments introduced by SES2 were a "performance scheme", based on EU-wide performance targets to be met over specific time periods (1st period: 2012-2014 and 2nd period: 2015-2019); the establishment of Functional Airspace Blocks (FAB's) on the basis of operational requirements and across States boundaries; the "Network Manager", established in 2011, to perform some operational tasks at EU wide level (ATS route design, air traffic flow management, SSR transponder codes and frequency management co-ordination, crisis co-ordination, etc.)
A good example of a multinational air navigation service unit established in the ICAO EUR Region is the Maastricht Upper Area Control Centre (MUAC), set up in 1972. MUAC, operated by EUROCONTROL on behalf of four States, provides air traffic control for the upper airspace (above 24,500 feet) of Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and north-west Germany. The international area of responsibility covered by MUAC is a perfect example of the harmonisation of airspace and a model for cross-border projects in the spirit of the Single European Sky (MUAC is a member of FAB Europe Central (FABEC)).
