The use of VDGS/Displays is driven by 2 types of needs :
Consolidate the Pre-departure Sequence and enhance predictability by implementing highly recommended milestones: In-bloc (AIBT - milestone n°7 - Airport CDM Manual V4) and Off-bloc (AOBT- milestone n°15 - Airport CDM Manual V4).

Display key A-CDM information, such as TSAT, to all stakeholders located at the Gate: Airlines crews, Ground handler and Airport operator.

Visual Display Guidance System (VDGS) units and Displays address sub AF 2.1 and associated Fast track:
2.1.1 Consolidate Initial DMAN capabilities
