UFA, Inc.

After 3 long days our UFA, Inc. Tower and Radar simulators of the Belgian Military ATC School are up and running. After a decade of reliable service all PCs have been upgraded by Intel Corporation powered HP workstations. As always with such a major overhaul one runs into several unexpected hickups, but thanks to a devoted and highly motivated team we managed to replace the old workstations, monitors and touchscreens. Reconfigured the new ATTower software and achieved proper cable management before the set deadline! Thanks to Mathias Türck (the ATTower Guru), Heiko Kunze (Mr ATEditoooor) and Kevin "the Cable Guy" Wolf from UFA, Inc. Also credits go to Seppe and Ruben, our Pseudo pilots for supporting my bossing around and other shenanigans 😁 It was a pleasure gentlemen 👍

We were honored yesterday to officially cut the ribbon on our new headquarters inside Syracuse Hancock International Airport - SYR Airport! The celebration highlighted Syracuse’s emergence as a hub for next-generation aviation and mobility and was attended by distinguished Assemblymembers Magnarelli, Hunter, and Stirpe, along with other representatives from New York, NUAIR Board and Alliance members, key executives, industry partners, and local media. Empire State Development President, CEO and Commisioner Hope Knight said, "Supporting the innovative technologies and emerging industries that are creating the jobs of tomorrow is at the heart of ESD's mission. Together with NUAIR, we are laser-focused on elevating the UAS industry in Central New York and the Mohawk Valley. The NUAIR Center of Excellence for Advanced Air Mobility represents yet another major milestone that will help to ensure the uncrewed system sector's continued growth in New York State." Syracuse Assemblymembers joined in for the ribbon cutting. "NUAIR and CNY have become the center of the universe for UAS," share Assemblyman Al Stirpe. "Our young people should be really excited about what we have going on here," said Assemblymember Pamela Hunter. And Assemblyman Bill Magnarelli remarked, "This [UAS and AAM] is happening now. It's not 100 years from now... it's happening now." The celebration underscores the collaborative efforts in the Greater Syracuse region to establish a world-leading UAS and AAM ecosystem, pioneering technologies that will revolutionize transportation, enhance public safety, and drive economic growth. As Ken Stewart remarked, “this truly is a Community of Excellence”. Read the full release at https://lnkd.in/eXYKJHvV H. Jason Terreri, IAP, A.A.E., ACE Matt Szwejbka, A.A.E.

An exciting milestone for CAE! On October 28, we welcomed the first cohort of students to our new Air Traffic Services (ATS) training centre in Montreal for initial training to become air traffic controllers and flight service specialists. Earlier this year, CAE and NAV CANADA announced a partnership to increase ATS training capacity in Canada, and we’re thrilled to see it take off with an incredible crew of seasoned instructors and operations professionals – all dedicated to developing the next generation of ATS personnel. We’re also honoured to have been certified as a Transport Canada Approved Training Organization (ATO) for ATS training. This is a significant step for CAE to support NAV CANADA and Air Navigation Services Providers (ANSPs) to address the increased demand for ATS personnel worldwide. #AirTrafficControl #AirTrafficServices #ANSPs #ATC #ATCTraining #ATS #AviationTraining #Simulation #Training #TrainwithCAE #Montreal

We are getting ready for the next CEO Safety Conference in Ibiza! I am pleased to announce that #Skyway, the first air traffic service provider in Spain's liberalized market, will join EUROCONTROL to host a new CEO Safety Conference, a key event for the ANSP industry. During these sessions, CEOs and senior executives from the sector will come together to share knowledge, define future priorities, and analyze both current and upcoming challenges in #AviationSafety. This event, which hasn’t been held since 2019 (due to the COVID-19 era), is part of EUROCONTROL’s Experience-Sharing for Safety Improvement Programme (ES2), a crucial platform to identify how we can continue driving safer, more resilient, and sustainable operations. We are confident that valuable insights will be gathered to strengthen various areas of navigation, from risk prevention to improving response capabilities in the event of incidents. We invite you to stay updated on the event details in the coming days through our official Skyway account. #Skyway #CEOSafetyConference #Eurocontrol #Safety #Aviación #AerospaceSafety #SafetyInAviation
