It is world standards day 2023- the aim of which is to raise awareness of the importance of standardisation. ATM is highly regulated and operates to very high standards at all times.
ATCOs can not imagine a world without air traffic control standards.
These standards are the aviation industry's secret sauce, the recipe for keeping millions of passengers safe every day. They establish the rules and guidelines that help air traffic controllers manage the intricate symphony of planes in the sky!
From coordinating take offs and landings to navigating through turbulent weather, air traffic controllers rely on a well-choreographed set of standards, include everything from communication protocols to runway lighting systems, making sure everything runs like a well-rehearsed symphony.
