#Eurocontrol institute of air navigation services full
Before the Convention entered into force in 1963, there were already indications that the matter of national sovereignty would complicate the full implementation of the organisation's founding mission. The Eurocontrol Convention was signed in 1960 and ratified in 1963. Its activities involve all gate-to-gate air navigation service operations: strategic and tactical flow management, controller training, regional control of airspace, safety-proofed technologies and procedures, and collection of air navigation charges. The organisation works with national authorities, air navigation service providers, civil and military airspace users, airports, and other organisations. The EU itself is a signatory of Eurocontrol and all EU member states are presently also members of Eurocontrol. Īlthough Eurocontrol is not an agency of the European Union, the EU has delegated parts of its Single European Sky regulations to Eurocontrol, making it the central organisation for coordination and planning of air traffic control for all of Europe. The organisation employs approximately two thousand people, and operates with an annual budget in excess of half a billion Euro. It has several local sites as well, including an Innovation Hub in Brétigny-sur-Orge, France, the Aviation Learning Centre (ALC) in Luxembourg, and the Maastricht Upper Area Control Centre (MUAC) in Maastricht, the Netherlands. Founded in 1960, Eurocontrol currently has 41 member states and is headquartered in Brussels, Belgium. The European Organisation for the Safety of Air Navigation, commonly known as Eurocontrol (stylised EUROCONTROL), is an international organisation working to achieve safe and seamless air traffic management across Europe.
