Baku, Azerbaijan, Oct. 6
By Maksim Tsurkov – Trend:
Azerbaijan Airspace Supervision & Efficiency Centre (ASEC) will be built at Heydar Aliyev International Airport. The relevant agreement was signed by CJSC Azerbaijan Airlines (AZAL) and French company Thales, AZAL said Oct. 6.
The project will be implemented within the framework of the implementation of air traffic management system (ATM) and air traffic flow management (ATFM) in collaboration with Eurocontrol.
Azerbaijan Airspace Supervision & Efficiency Centre at Heydar Aliyev International Airport will be a key center for planning of air traffic flow between European Central Flow Management Unit (CFMU), located in Brussels and Air Traffic Flow Management Center, located in Singapore.
The fast growth of the Asian and Chinese markets, as well as the strategic position of Azerbaijan contribute to growth in both internal and transit air traffic, and therefore, our country is assigned an important role in air flow management throughout the region.
Smooth implementation of ICAO Global Air Navigation Plan requirements will have a positive impact on air traffic flow growth in the future.
