WISTON, England, Oct. 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- If you've downloaded a flight radar app, you may have been astonished at the sheer number of aircraft criss-crossing the country. Zooming in to Heathrow or JFK, all you can see is a vast pile of teeny planes all seemingly jostling to get on or off the runway. It appears to be completely chaotic, but every single aircraft is on a precisely dictated flight path, and it's the work of air traffic controllers which will result in an untroubled journey and a safe landing.

Key Points: 
  • Artemis Aerospace looks at the crucial work of air traffic controllers and how they keep aircraft moving and skies safe.
  • The aim of air traffic control is to move aircraft safely and efficiently through the airspace system, to maintain communication with the pilot and ensure compliance with aviation protocol.
  • Modules include air navigation law, air safety management and weather studies as well as the complex rules and regulations of air traffic control.
  • Air traffic control operates twenty-four hours a day, every day of the year; there is never a time when controlled airspace is unmonitored.
