The service package models the provision of the aircraft flight management system Estimated Time of Arrival to a ground based user. Initially at least the identified ground based user is the arrival manager.

The CONOPS Definition is:
ADS-C ETA min/max report is the ADS-C report containing the earliest and latest values of ETA computed by the aircraft system on the point specified by ATC (e.g. IAF).

A better definition:
The earliest and latest ETA at a waypoint, provided the aircraft flies the 4D trajectory at its max/min allowable speed, wind/temp error is also taken into account, in order to guarantee that any CTA defined within associated ETA min/max interval will be satisfied with high probability.
