  • Cost Savings!
  • Cost efficient allocation of personell by

relatively small investment

  • Safety!
  • Infrared Camera
  • Augmented Vision
  • Video Tracking

 Sustaiability of cost efficent air traffic control

What is the core of this idea?

Where remote control can be a solution?

  • 1. RTO Center for 1+n

small or medium sized airports

  • 2. RTO Center for 1+n

big airports

  • 3. Remote Control of view restricted

Apron oder Runways

  • 4. Contingency
