Air Traffic Management

This textbook on air traffic management should be required reading for anyone involved in the management or regulation of this key part of the air transport ecosystem. All the key issues of supplying sufficient capacity, limiting environmental damage and the appropriate charging of users are addressed by experts in their field. For me the most important chapters are those at the end, dealing with reform and what future airspace management could deliver Brian Pearce, Former-Chief Economist at IATA This textbook provides thorough inside in the current world of global ATM. The History, The Future and the complexity of Air Navigation Service Provisions are well described and offer the reader a good understanding of challenges of Air Traffic Management. Marc Baumgartner, IFATCA SESAR/EASA Coordinator This book is an ambitious attempt to draw together the evolution and current performance of the hidden backbone of aviation, one of our truly global industries. Air Traffic Management is an under researched area of human activity and this book does much to fill that gap. David McMillan, Chair, ATM Policy Institute The publication of this textbook could not come at a better time. In 2022, the aviation community is facing unprecedented challenges, which are also rich of opportunities. Transformations are needed and on their way. I expect this book to be a thought-provoking and useful tool for both ATM professionals and students. Kjartan Briem, CEO of ISAVIA ANS, Iceland.
