Air traffic management

Abstract

This year, a considerable part of the Aeronautics Days conference programme was devoted to air transportation, which is reflected in these Proceedings through the sections on Safety, Environmental Impact and Air Traffic Management. Cooperative work on the problems of air traffic management is a crucial component of research effort in Europe and in particular is a key element of the research strategy at the Eurocontrol Experimental Centre. The research papers in this section of the Proceedings, introduced below, give some ideas of the issues facing ATM research in Europe.
