Control Service

This paper deals primarily with Air Traffic Control in the European region and does not refer to problems specific to other areas. Nevertheless, most of these problems are common to all regions and differ only in degree. Their solution depends upon the existence of a properly organised and equipped Air Traffic Control Service and there is now world-wide recognition by users and providers alike that such a service is an essential element in the ordered development of aviation.

Marine and air navigation can still learn from each other. Mariners are following aviation in adopting some routing and control but aviation could follow mariners in their refusal to accept routing and control unless it is cost effective. However it may be easier in the marine case to measure the cost and probability of a collision than it is in the aerial case. But many states have established mandatory airways and routes; originally their navigational aids were very useful and in the event of forced landing the search and rescue people knew where to look. But many airliners now have self-contained navaids like the inertial navigation system (INS) or doppler so that they can navigate off airways, and also forced landings are rare. In the history of air traffic control at first it applied only around airports; when it spread to routes many aircraft were quite happy to fly off airways. But now airways have proliferated and have become customary and respectable to airline pilots so that few complain when some states force aircraft to follow lengthy and costly routes. The only virtue of airways is their freedom, theoretically, from uncontrolled traffic and from military dangers. If A.T.C. were confined to those situations where the risk of collision without A.T.C. would be worse than, say 1 in 10,000,000, flying would be a little more expeditious, but everyone feels secure within the system and insecure, guilty and uncomfortable outside it, so A.T.C. is used universally by airliners.

This paper focuses on the provision of the Aerodrome Flight Information Service (AFIS) in the Czech Republic. It examines the functioning and the requirements on the AFIS from the view of the national audit office. Specially, it examines current requirements for the training system of new AFIS officers. Based on these findings, and by comparing the AFIS with Air traffic control service (ATC), the author of the article attempts to assess whether the current training system and the requirements for the applicants are sufficient by comparing the AFIS with the Air traffic control service. The result of the analysis is the presentation of hypotheses concerning new proposals and recommendations that could be adopted to the training and regulatory framework in accordance to the fact, that AFIS belongs to Air traffic services ATS.

Control Service

Air Traffic Control is an all-embracing term and on occasion there is some doubt about its scope. For the present purpose it will be as defined within the internationally agreed principles set out in Annex 11 to the International Civil Aviation Convention. Here it is set out that the Air Traffic Control service is for:– (i)Expediting and maintaining an orderly flow of air traffic.(ii)Preventing collision between aircraft.(iii)Providing advice and information useful for the sake of efficient conduct of flights.(iv)Preventing collision on the manoeuvring area between aircraft and obstructions.(v)Notifying the appropriate organisations regarding aircraft in need of search and rescue and to assist such organisations as required.

Control Service

During the past twenty-five years the aviation scene has progressed from one in which relatively small numbers of aircraft flew from point of origin to destination with the guidance afforded by very limited M/F range facilities and a great deal of individual navigational skill on the part of the operating crews. Air traffic control functioned only as a means of sorting out the order of take-off and landing. Moving forward to the present we see the already high density traffic serving the population centres of the world continuing to increase at a rate of around 10 per cent per annum. Both station referenced and self-contained navigational systems proliferate and control of traffic must be almost total if collision accidents are to be avoided. During the same time period aircraft speeds have increased threefold and necessitated a consequent improvement in the ability of the air traffic control service to react quickly and precisely to any conflict situations, either by detection in the strategic/planning case or resolution in the tactical frame by direct intervention before critical situations can develop.

Pilot Error

A study investigating the accuracy of pilots' copying air traffic control clearances is described. Twentyfour airline pilots listened to 28 taped clearances and copied them down on an answer sheet using shorthand, longhand, or some combination of these according to their preferences. The copied clearances were analyzed by the number of correctly copied elements, the number of omitted elements, and the number of extraneous elements that were not present in the original clearance. Preliminary results indicate a strong influence of habit and familiar operating environment and procedures on the accuracy of copying unfamiliar information. Common errors included victor-airways copied as jet-airways, low altitudes copied as much higher, and slow speeds copied as much higher. The vulnerability of controller-pilot communications to the effects of unfamiliarity is apparent. A detailed analysis of these data may provide for a better understanding of the shortcomings of controller-pilot communication.

The post-war development of air transport has temporarily out-paced the ability of the air traffic control service to provide for safe conduct which is always expeditious, and it has certainly out-moded the concept of visual avoidance. To alleviate the situation in the areas of high-density traffic in the United States, the Air Transport Association of America outlined a requirement for an airborne collision warning device.

<p align="LEFT">Undoubtedly air transport in today’s world wouldn’t be able to exist without any air traffic control service. As the air transport has been coming through major changes and it has been expanding, it is assumed that its volume will be doubled in the next 15 years. Air traffic control uses strictly organised procedures to ensure safe course of air operations. With the skies covered with more airplanes every year, new tools must be introduced to allow the controllers to manage this rising amount of flying aircraft and to keep the air transport safe. This paper provides a comprehensive and organized material, which describes the newest tools and systems used by air traffic control officers. It proposes improvements for further research and development of ATC tools.</p>
