31 Mar 2022 CW Team

Boeing, a US-based aerospace company, developed a comprehensive 10-year roadmap for the Airports Authority of India (AAI) for modernisation of air traffic management (ATM).

AAI Chairman Sanjeev Kumar told the media that the roadmap is aiming to drive operational excellence while offering enhanced air traffic capacity for their flying public, improved navigation, surveillance, and communication for our users, to make Indian skies seamless and safer to operate in.

The AAI is responsible for managing the commercial traffic in the Indian airspace. It further runs over 100 airports across India.

In a press release Boeing said the project for the development of a comprehensive ten-year Communication, Navigation and Surveillance/Air Traffic Management (CNS/ATM) modernisation roadmap had been undertaken with a grant from the US Trade and Development Agency (USTDA).

Boeing has worked closely with the airlines operating in India, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), airport operators, and other airspace stakeholders as part of the project.

In 2019 Boeing and the AAI signed an agreement to jointly develop the roadmap.

Boeing India chief engineer Ahmed Elsherbini said that it is a proud moment for Boeing as they develop and present a roadmap to the AAI for being leveraged as national guidance to help improve airspace utilisation while maintaining safe and efficient aircraft operations.
