Aviation Consultancy - Cyrrus

Airports need to constantly develop and expand in a controlled and sustainable manner to meet increasing traffic demand. Cyrrus expertise can play a vital role in ensuring that airport development potential is maximised. Development and progress may be achieved either through better use of existing assets and infrastructure, or by realising the full benefits of new development and technology.

MAXIMISING POTENTIAL

Whatever the development needs of the airport, Cyrrus can ensure that maximum benefit is derived in terms of safety, regulatory compliance, efficiency, cost, sustainability, timescales, and future proofing.
MINIMISING RISK

Cyrrus leads carefully managed, industry best practice processes to capture accurate operational, user, technical and safety requirements to ensure project risk is minimised and maximum benefits realised; considering at all times, the potential commercial impact.
Cyrrus understand the commercial, financial and governance requirements associated with major airport infrastructure developments. Cyrrus provide feasibility and option studies to explore traditional and more innovative solutions to meet an airports business needs. These are developed into Concepts of Operations and ultimately Airport Master Plans.

We are recognised and respected internationally for our expertise in airport project management. Through innovation, Cyrrus has successfully assisted many airports in maximising the utility of existing infrastructure. Additionally, we develop innovative solutions that enable development at airports which would be denied by conventional thinking.

Cyrrus has practical experience of passenger terminal design and delivery of key airport systems and facilities for Air Traffic management and Airport Operations. This breadth of experience is essential for delivery of cost effective Airport Master Plans and major developments.

Aviation Consultancy - Cyrrus

Despite challenging economic conditions, airports have seen an unprecedented increase in air transport movements over recent years. This has required the revision of operational systems, noise compliant routings, new navigational technologies, such as the use of the Global Navigation Satellite System, and the integration of arrival and departure procedures into the existing Air Traffic Control en-route network.

INSTRUMENT FLIGHT PROCEDURE DESIGN

Cyrrus is an accredited Instrument Flight Procedure design organisation approved by the United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority. We can provide new Instrument Flight Procedure designs based on conventional and satellite-based navigation. In addition, Cyrrus will maintain and safeguard your Instrument Flight Procedures under a controlled, quality-assured regulatory-approved process. We can also review and optimise existing flight procedures for efficiency and potentially to reduce environmental impact.
AIRSPACE CHANGE

Airspace is a finite resource and often it has to support a diverse set of users that include commercial, military, general aviation and leisure aircraft. Cyrrus has the expertise and experience to research, design and progress the most sophisticated airspace change proposals from conception through to implementation.

This invaluable and broad insight of the industry enables us to foresee potential issues before they manifest to ensure a smooth delivery.

Safeguarding

Development in the vicinity of airports must be controlled to ensure that the safety and effectiveness of air operations are not impaired. Therefore, it is essential that any proposed building developments are assessed to ensure that there is no adverse effect on the airport operation or aircraft safety.

TECHNICAL SAFEGUARDING

Cyrrus uses highly advanced software to enable computer simulations of Instrument Landing System, Very High Frequency Omni-directional Range, Distance Measuring Equipment and radar performance. The resulting modelling enables us to assess the effect of proposed developments on air operations, and to offer mitigation to allow maximum development to be undertaken without compromising aviation safety and efficiency.
OBSTACLE SAFEGUARDING

Cyrrus utilises 3D computer modelling of the obstacle environment to assess the effect of proposed developments on Obstacle Limitation Surfaces and Instrument Flight Procedures. Cyrrus also develops bespoke safeguarding criteria and maps for airports and facility operators. Advanced graphics are used to create easily interpreted user-friendly presentations.
The safety of aircraft operations in the vicinity of an airport depends on the environment around the airport being protected from changes which could have a detrimental effect on safety. This process is known as safeguarding, and is essential to ongoing aviation safety.

Whilst the primary objective of safeguarding is to protect aviation safety, development in the vicinity of an airport is both necessary and desirable. A secondary objective of aviation safeguarding is to facilitate maximum development potential whilst maintaining aviation safety requirements.

Cyrrus has a thorough understanding of safeguarding processes and objectives that can enable development on and around an airport, allowing the airport to realise maximum development potential whilst ensuring the ongoing safety of aircraft operations.

Technology

Communications, Navigation and Surveillance systems form an integral part of Air Traffic Management. Cyrrus personnel possess many years of experience as active civil and military air traffic controllers, air traffic engineers and project managers at domestic and international airports.

SYSTEMS ENGINEERING

By employing best practice, industry-recognised systems engineering process to each project, our expert team of systems engineers provide the optimal result to deliver fit-for-purpose, safe and cost-effective solutions to meet the operational requirement in a timely manner.
INNOVATION

Cyrrus has developed patented radar data processing systems to address windfarm interference to Primary Surveillance Radar, radar performance monitoring, and Mode-S code conflict detection.
Through experience and innovative solutions, Cyrrus has developed technology for airports that realise business benefits otherwise denied by conventional thinking.

Cyrrus expertise includes many years of experience as civil and military air traffic controllers, air traffic engineers, commercial and project managers at international airports. This experience ensures Cyrrus has up-to-date knowledge of ‘real-world’ issues and provide high-value engineering solutions.

Innovative technology often starts as an immature idea or basic concept. Choosing a partner that understands the application of technology, industry constraints and recognises the opportunity is essential to delivery of a final product. Cyrrus staff help navigate complex ideas and collate into executable business and development plans.
