STRATEGIC GUIDANCE IN SUPPORT OF THE EXECUTION OF THE EUROPEAN ATM MASTER PLAN

Abstract

Air transport is an important component of European unity and the European economy. Air Transport contributes 220 milliard to European gross domestic product. Air traffic is expected to more than double for the next 20 years. However, the facilities and procedures used to manage these traffic flows has changed only little and is a fight to keep up with developments. The Single European Sky is the European Union’s response to this problem and the Strategic Guidance is response to reach the Single European Sky.
