First in the Poland tests of the EGNOS SIS (Signal in Space) were conducted on 5th October 2007 on the flight inspection with SPAN (The Synchronized Position Attitude Navigation) technology at the Mielec airfield. This was an introduction to a test campaign of the EGNOS-based satellite navigation system for air traffic. The advanced studies will be performed within the framework of the EGNOS-APV project in 2009. The implementation of the EGNOS system to APV-I precision approach operations, is conducted ac-cording to ICAO requirements in Annex 10. Definition of usefulness and certification of EGNOS as SBAS (Satellite Based Augmentation System) in aviation requires thorough analyses of accuracy, integrity, continui-ty and availability of SIS (Signal in Space). Also, the project will try to exploit the excellent accuracy perfor-mance of EGNOS to analyze the implementation of GLS (GNSS Landing System) approaches (Cat I-like ap-proached using SBAS, with a decision height of 200 ft). Location of the EGNOS monitoring station Chelm, located near Polish-Ukrainian border, being also at the east border of planned EGNOS coverage for ECAC states is very useful for SIS tests in this area. According to current EGNOS programmed schedule, the project activities will be carried out with EGNOS system v2.2, which is the version released for civil aviation certification. Therefore, the project will allow demonstrating the feasibility of the EGNOS certifiable version for civil applications.
