How to manage the aerial boom

Two-story aircraft with a capacity for more than 500 passengers and a revolutionary design that saves fuel and reduce dioxide emissions carbon.

New companies, with lower costs and prices, have allowed the most of the population realize the dream of traveling.  Aviation  today more than never a means of transport of reference and also one of the safest - will play a decisive role in the economic development of the 21st century, contributing to the growth of emerging countries and the democratization of transport.

With this objective, it is vital that governments, airports and technology providers as Thales redouble their efforts to promote the SESAR program (Single European Sky ATM Research), whose purpose is the implementation in 2020 of a network of management of high-performance air traffic. An integrated and common vision that, through the establishment of new procedures and technologies, allow raffle the congestion and manage the expected increase in demand in the medium term.
