The CANSO Air Traffic Management Podcast

CANSO Europe's Enrico Parini talks to Deborah Seymour about his first six months as Director Europe Affairs. He discusses his motivations to lead a CANSO regional group of 36 ANSP members, their main operational and political issues, his experiences in the role so far and how he sees the future for the ATM industry in Europe.

Croatia has one of the busiest airspaces in Europe – air traffic at the moment is 44 per cent above 2019 levels, which is significantly above what was forecast during COVID. How does Croatia Control, the country's air navigation services provider, cope with all this activity during the peak summer season? CANSO Europe's Johnny Pring spoke with Dubravko Meco, the COO of Croatia Control, about the measures which his company is successfully applying in this regard to enable more capacity and fewer delays.

At the recent Airspace World in Lisbon, Portugal, we sat down with Kathryn Leahy, Chief Operations Officer of the UK's ANSP, NATS. 
In a fascinating conversation Kathryn talks about the lessons she has learned from a long and varied operations career that spans the trinity of Civil Aviation - Airlines, Airports, and now Air Traffic Management.

Europe's skies are likely to be even busier in summer 2025 than last year. CANSO's Johnny Pring discusses with Steven Moore, Head of the ATM Network Operations Division at EUROCONTROL, what this growth in traffic means for the aviation industry and how operational partners can work together to optimise airspace capacity.

Johnny Pring talks to MEP Jan-Christoph Oetjen from the European Parliament's Transport Committee about the role of the Single European Sky ATM Research programme (SESAR) in transforming European airspace. SESAR has supported ATM's shift towards digitisation, automation and other new ways of working. Its projects benefit airspace capacity, ATM environmental performance, U-space and EU defence capabilities. Yet will the EU institutions agree to continue co-funding SESAR under the next EU budget?
