Air Traffic Management Committee
The Air Traffic Management Committee (ATMC) represents ASD members in the area of civil air traffic management (ATM) research and initiatives. It develops policies, formulates strategies, and provides a unified voice to key ATM stakeholders. The ATMC serves as a forum for Europe’s ATM industry to coordinate strategy and action on shared priorities, while maintaining an open dialogue with key partners, including the European Commission, the European Aviation Safety Agency, and EUROCONTROL.
ASD and CANSO call for increased funding for SESARASD and CANSO Europe have jointly called for greater funding for the Single European Sky Air Traffic Management (ATM) Research programme (SESAR). SESAR is the technological backbone of the Single European Sky initiative, aimed at enhancing ATM performance...
Unmanned Aircraft Systems Traffic Management (UTM) RegulationExplore ASD's vision for the Unmanned Aircraft Systems Traffic Management (UTM) Regulation, applauding EU efforts and advocating for sustainable competition and innovative integration in the evolving European airspace.
Helicopters in the urban air mobility ecosystemThis paper discusses the importance of mobility in cities and the potential of air mobility solutions to enhance people’s and goods’ mobility. It also highlights that discussions often treat “UAM” as being synonymous with passenger electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft (eVTOL) operating from vertiports with air traffic management (ATM). The article notes that helicopters can play a significant role in the UAM ecosystem, especially in emergency medical services.
