EUROCONTROL / IFATCA 2008: a collaborative approach to the future > Foreword
It is absolutely essential to take human factors into account in
dealing with upcoming challenges and, in particular, we all
need to be clear that the ATM system of the future will only work
if wholeheartedly endorsed by those responsible for operating it
Without our close cooperation and
mutual understanding, EUROCONTROL’s
work would be much less effective. This
yearbook is an excellent symbol of our
joint partnership and I wish every reader
an informative journey through its pages.
EUROCONTROL / IFATCA 2008: a collaborative approach to the future > Foreword
Patrik Peters, Executive Vice-President Europe, IFATCA
Preparing for the future
Being invited by EUROCONTROL to
co-produce this yearbook is not only a
privilege, it is also an opportunity to
demonstrate the excellent level of
cooperation that exists between the
Agency and the International Federation
of Air Traffic Controllers’ Associations
(IFATCA). Furthermore, it is evidence of
how much our professional organisation’s
input to the Air Traffic Management
(ATM) world has been appreciated and
respected since its foundation in 1961.
Controllers employ systems and
procedures to ensure the safe, efficient and
orderly provision of air traffic control. We
deliver a service to the general public that
has developed immensely over the past
20 years and where change is an
omnipresent constant. Aviation is the
backbone of modern society.
It is expected that traffic will double
between now and 2025. New measures
and ideas are required to create urgently
needed capacity for this increase. The
development of new techniques and
procedures, as well as pressure from
politicians and industry, demand input
from all involved parties. IFATCA is proud
to contribute its knowledge, experience
and dedication to this world of change.
Europe has picked up a momentum,
which is setting precedence. Stakeholder
consultation involving professional and
social representation has become a vital
part of the ongoing development. The
structured approach to modernise and
harmonise ATM in Europe will have
consequences for other parts of the globe.
The realisation of the Single European
Sky, SESAR and the creation of
Functional Airspace Blocks will lay the
foundations for many initiatives in
other regions.
As these developments unfold, safety
must be the prime objective. Rising traffic
levels inevitably increase risks. These risks
need to be clearly identified and mitigated
in order to implement well-organised and
properly applied safety management

We want to live in a modern,
well-organised and easily
accessible world. We accept
that change is inevitable and
we are prepared to take on
the challenges of the future
systems. Transparency and trust is
imperative. The Just Culture approach and
voluntary incident reporting can assist in
providing reliable data aimed at a blamefree
environment, which in turn will lead
to mature safety management.
Efficiency in the provision of air traffic
control service can be improved through
increased harmonisation. Europe suffers
from a patchwork of ATM systems,
where current interfaces do not allow for
the predicted traffic increase. Recognising
recent achievements, one can see the
potential this sector has, but also the
extensive work that lies before us. Apart
from the need for revising technical and
operational borders, we need to look at
harmonising European national
legislation. The European Community
requires the cooperation of all
participating States to tackle the
efficiency hurdle.
With increasing air-traffic, environmental
aspects also require a new mindset. Our
planet is suffering from global warming and
the impact of pollution in general. It is our
obligation as professionals in the transport
sector to, as far as practicable, develop
environmentally friendly procedures and
operating practices.
We want to live in a modern, wellorganised
and easily accessible world. We
accept that change is inevitable and we are
prepared to take on the challenges of the
future. What we do today will determine
where we are tomorrow. Only through
collaboration between all parties:
