This paper introduces the concept of Virtual Integration Platforms (VIP) as a method for the development, integration and assessment of new Air Transportation System (ATS) concepts. The VIP concept aims to enable a meaningful integration and assessment of new technologies on a system-of-systems scale. The approach taken follows a systems engineering-based approach to develop new ATS concepts. We describe three VIPs, each of them focussing on a different market segment: One VIP considers short-to-medium haul air transport, one VIP focusses on long haul transport and one VIP studies new business travel concepts. The scope of a virtual integration platform is based on operational targets for various time horizons. Four main substructures of the air transportation system were identified: aircraft, airport, ATM and airline. This paper also includes two examples to demonstrate the VIP concept and its application.
