PRESS RELEASE
20 October - International Day of the Air Traffic Controller 50 years IFATCA One Sky One Voice since 1961 Today the International Federation of Air Traffic Controllers Associations (IFATCA) celebrates the International Day of the Air Traffic Controller and 50 years of existence since its beginnings in 1961. IFATCA was founded through an abiding passion for air traffic control and flight safety when passenger transport began to play a prominent role in aviation. This spirit more than ever before exists in the hearts and minds of all air traffic controllers. The response to the idea of a federation was immediate and universal. From its founding on 20 October 1961 IFATCA has grown to 137member associations representing more than 50,000 air traffic controllers worldwide. Aviation, as the backbone of society, has become an integral part of many peoples lives but the profession of air traffic control is often still unknown, misunderstood, underestimated or unfairly linked with the consequences of accidents, delays and industrial actions resulting in mostly negative press and a wrong perception in the public. Seldom enough do the air traffic controllers receive the deserved attention for the many flight safely handled, for the thousands of passengers expeditiously guided through busy skies and the challenges we live with in times of increased economic and social pressure. For decades our profession has developed from pen and paper (still used in many places) to highly automated complex electronic networks. This evolution would not have been possible without the structured, motivated and continuous input of the professionals we are. When we celebrate 20th of October this year, we reach out to our colleagues, to the individual air traffic controller who strives minute-by-minute to provide the best service to bring you safely and efficiently to your destination - all too often under circumstances which are far from ideal. Working conditions and work environment, training and remuneration, equipment and automation need to reflect the complexity of the profession and assist the air traffic controller in their challenging task. Despite an increasingly critical media exposure, often fuelled by wrong economical interpretations, air traffic controllers worldwide hold on to the highest aims of our Federation, Safety & Efficiency! Today we recognise our efforts, salute our accomplishments, and renew our mission of service through an industry that is at the heart of a global community. To all air traffic controllers, be proud and celebrate your profession today! One Sky, One Voice, One Future. The ATCO day flyer 2011 is available for download from the IFATCA website at www.ifatca.org
- 50 Years of Professional Involvement IFATCA has been representing air traffic controllers since 1961, with more than 50.000 members in over 130 countries. Amongst its goals are the promotion of safety, efficiency and regularity in international air navigation and the protection and safeguarding of the interests of the air traffic control profession. www.ifatca.org

The SNPCA invites you to this knowledge and experiences sharing space in which controllers and colleagues from the aviation field, Algerians and foreigners, took part to. We have been glad of their participation and use this opportunity to express our best wishes at the occasion of the international day of air traffic controller of this 2011 year
HISTORY Air Traffic Control (ATC) is one of the worlds youngest professions. Like many modern professions, it has developed from the humblest beginnings into a highly sophisticated and technology dependant occupation. With ATC there was no big bang; it wasnt discovered or invented but it has evolved gradually, driven by demand. Circumstances have dictated that it developed slightly differently from region to region, from country to country and even from city to city using highly sophisticated synthetic radar displays and employing satellite communications. Within two decades of the Wright brothers changing the concept of travel, air traffic controllers appeared waving flags. It is possible to theorize that Wilbur Wright was the worlds first air traffic controller with Orville a close second.
Most training focuses on honing the ability to absorb data quickly from a variety of sources, and to use this to visualize, in time and space, the position of each aircraft under control, and to project this forward into the near future. This skill is termed situational awareness , and is central to the job. Maintaining a constantly-moving visual scan among all aircraft under ones control, without fixating on a particular situation, this is then used to make relatively simple rule-based decisions very quickly and accurately to keep aircraft separated in the sky while moving traffic as expeditiously as possible and presenting the traffic in an orderly and useful manner to the next sector. Communication is a vital part of the job: controllers are trained to precisely focus on the exact words pilots and other controllers speak, because a single misunderstanding about an altitude level or runway number for example can result in tragedy. Controllers communicate with the pilots of aircraft using a push-to-talk radiotelephony system, which has many attendant issues such as the fact only one transmission can be made on a frequency at a time, or transmissions will merge together and be unreadable.

ACAS II
Presentation of ACAS : The Airborne Collision Avoidance System (ACAS) is an ICAO standard which provides pilots with a system independent of air traffic control to detect the presence of other aircraft which may present a threat of collision. Where the risk of collision is established, the system provides an indication of a vertical manoeuvre that will reduce the risk of collision. It is often used by the flight crew to improve their situational awareness. It serves as a last-resort safety net irrespective of any separation standards different TCASs: TCAS I is the first generation of collision avoidance technology. It is cheaper but less capable than the modern TCAS II system, and is mainly intended for general aviation use. TCAS I systems are able to monitor the traffic situation around a plane (to a range of about 40 miles) and offer information on the approximate bearing and altitude of other aircraft. It can also generate Traffic Advisory (TA). TCAS II is the second and current generation of instrument warning TCAS, used in the majority of commercial aviation aircraft. It offers all the benefits of TCAS I, but will also offer the pilot direct, vocalized instructions to avoid danger, via Ras warnings TCAS II systems coordinate their resolution advisories before issuing commands to the pilots, so that if one aircraft is instructed to descend, the other will typically be told to climb maximizing the separation between the two aircrafts. TCAS III ,originally designated TCAS II Enhanced, TCAS III was envisioned as an expansion of the TCAS II concept to include horizontal resolution advisory capability. TCAS III was the next generation of collision avoidance technology
TCAS ( generations and advisories ) : TCAS traffic collision avoidance system or traffic alert and collision avoidance system is an aircraft system based on secondary surveillance radar (SSR) transponder signals which operates independently of ground-based equipment to provide advice to the pilot on potential conflicting aircraft that are equipped with SSR transponders. It gives two elementary warnings and advisories : The TA Traffic advisory warns the pilot that another aircraft is in near vicinity, announcing Traffic, traffic, but does not offer any suggested remedy; it is up to the pilot to decide what to do, usually with the assistance of Air Traffic Control. When a threat has passed, the system announces Clear of conflict The RA Resolution Advisory (RA). The suggestive action may be corrective, suggesting the pilot change vertical speed by announcing, Descend, descend, Climb, climb or Adjust Vertical Speed Adjust (meaning reduce vertical speed). By contrast a preventive RA may be issued which simply warns the pilots not to deviate from their present vertical speed, announcing, Monitor vertical speed or Maintain vertical speed, Maintain. Clear of conflict :indicates the end of the conflict.

Who should we follow and what to do? What follows is a real event that happened on the 1st July of 2002: Tu-154s anti-collision system orders plane to climb. A second later, Swiss air traffic control tells the Tu154 to descend. Pilot does not respond. Second warning from air traffic control. Tu-154 pilot descends. Boeing 757s TCAS anti-collision system orders pilot to descend . Planes collide at 35,300 ft, results: 69 deaths. REAL STORY ABOUT TCAS : Since many accidents that happened due to the fact that pilots had contradictory instructions from the RA and ATC, add to this TCAS has more accurate datas , it has been decided that definitely the RA has to be followed as we can read from Doc 4444 concerning the Pilot controller responsibilities during RA: RA15.7.3.3. Once an aircraft departs from its ATC clearance or instruction in compliance with an RA, or a pilot reports an RA, the controller ceases to be responsible for providing separation between that aircraft and any other aircraft affected as a direct consequence of the manoeuvre induced by the RA. The controller shall resume responsibility for providing separation for all the affected aircraft when:

a)the controller acknowledges a report from the flight crew that the aircraft has resumed the current clearance; or b) the controller acknowledges a report from the flight crew that the aircraft is resuming the current clearance and issues an alternative clearance which is acknowledged by the flight crew.
Incorrect use of the TCAS traffic display! ATCs are usually hearing expressions from pilots like we got him on TCAS, we are clear , were gonna make own separation on TCAS or many controllers uses the expression do you see him on TCAS as if TCAS is an ICAO separation standard. Be careful this is false and maybe dangerous cause TCAS display is not accurate as a radar screen, many cases reports mis-interpretations of aircrafts position or pilots making their own TCAS separation instead of following ATC instructions. The TCAS traffic display is designed to assist the visual acquisition of surrounding aircraft. There is a risk that some aircraft in the vicinity might not be displayed and in addition, due to bearing inaccuracy, a moving reference, and a lack of a speed vector, together with no identity information, flight crews could wrongly attribute a target symbol on the TCAS traffic display. Air traffic controllers base their actions on the comprehensive information shown on the radar display, which enables them to provide a safe and expeditious air traffic flow. The TCAS traffic display does not provide the information necessary for the provision of separation and sequencing. Manoeuvres initiated solely on the information shown on the TCAS traffic display have often degraded The TCAS traffic display is designed to assist the visual acquisition of surrounding aircraft.

flight safety. Therefore, pilots should not attempt to self-separate, nor to challenge an ATC instruction, based on the information derived solely from the TCAS traffic display. It is the controllers responsibility to separate aircraft.

In fact Solar Impulse is a gigantic device, with an wingspan of an Airbus A340 (63.40 m) and a weight of a car (1.600 kg). This aircraft works totally with the solar energy and have the wings covered with 12.000 photo-voltaic cells resourcing four electric engines with 10 horsepower for each one classing it between the birds since his respect of environment in the topic of alternative resources. Solar Impulse project ambition is to bring the exploration and innovation world contribution to the renewable energies issue, show the new energies importance in the sustainable development, and for sure to put dreams and emotions in the center of the scientific adventure. Two men, innovators and pilots, insure the Solar Impulse development: Bertrand Piccard, a doctor, psychiatrist, aeronaut, creator of the first world tour on air-balloon without stop, is its initiator and president. Andr Borschberg, engineer, graduated in management sciences, fighter and professional aircrafts and helicopter pilot, he is its general manager. This device has taken off in the morning at 08h40, from Payerne Airport (ouest of Swiss). Then landed on the Brussels Airport tarmac,Friday noon before 22h00. It landed on runways 02 after a long approach by the south-ouest of the capital.

What a noise is ?
Here is a small guide of noises and movements that may help you to travel better: 1)- Just before or after the aircraft start-up ,the lightning and the air pressurization turned off and then on suddenly . Its normal: Its about an electric alimentation source; we are switching from an external generator to an internal one. 2)-When the aircraft is taxiing on the runway, you see a part of the wing pushed down and up. Its normal: the flaps are extended to allow better bearing during the take off. After the take off, they will be retracted until the landing time. 3)-Just after the take off you hear a noise coming from the ground. Its normal: Its the landing gear which is getting retracted within the fuselage. 4)-The engines noise decreases during the climb. Its normal: The engines are decreasing their power after having worked at full gas during the take off. They also go on reactive power mode just before the aircraft descent. 5)- During the climb you hear a vibration which intensity and the sonority are variable. Its normal: The flaps are getting retracted .You hear the same noise just before landing, when they extend again. 6)- When the aircraft passes through a turbulence area , you see the wings extremity moving up to down. Its normal: the wings are made so flexible to resist high turbulences. 7)- After landing, you will hear sometimes a blow (may be accompanied with the increasing engines noise ). Its normal: Its the engine thrust reversers that guide the air flew from the engines to the front to slow down the aircraft. 8)-After landing, you may feel a strong deceleration, sometimes accompanied with a pulsed braking. Its normal: The braking can be soft or wild according to the runway length. The pulsation comes from the nonskidding system (like the car), preventing the wheels to skid on the wet ground
As all the transport means are motorized, an aircraft gives out all kind of strange noises and makes movements that can trouble you if you arent get use to. We understand perfectly the discomfort that this can cause on the passengers.
HUMAN FACTORS
Is named ergonomic the scientific study of the relationship between man and his means, methods and work environments and applying this knowledge to the design of systems that can be used with maximum comfort, safety and efficiency by the greatest number.
The systems affected by this adjustment can be physical work spaces, elements of those spaces, processes of production management, professional interfaces (this is known as man-machine interface), such as software and work organization (rotation schedules, organization of services) and management methods. The ergonomic uses knowledge gained from work physiology, psychology, cognitive (memory, attention, perception, learning ...) and the psycho-physiology (alertness, posture, working conditions ...), sociology of organizations ( distribution of functions, organizations of the chain of command, chain functional, social psychology, linguistics, among others: in fact all sciences relating to man). The first feature of the analysis of this activity is that the operator regulates its business, according to its external environment, its internal state (tiredness for example) to obtain maximum regularity of performance.
The second dominant feature is the notion of compromise between the demands of performance, and requirements related to compliance. Many ergonomic rules emerged in the field of aeronautics, where the immediate legibility of the instruments and access controls can make the difference between a critical situation that we save and which ends in costly damages both human terms and material ones.
HUMAN FACTORS
For the case of the controller, his performance may be affected by disturbing factors associated with the general condition of the individual (stress, boredom, tiredness), physical limitations (disease, smoking and ...); also intellectual limitations (the training, qualification, experience etc.).. As for causes related to the machine, it is shown that interactions between the controller and the hardware, equipment, automated systems, information technology can affect his ability to process information, reaction time, his habits and its load work. For example, human error may be induced by the way that information is presented written or computerized.
The systems affected by this adjustment can be physical work spaces, elements of those spaces, processes of production management, professional interfaces (this is known as man-machine interface), such as software and work organization (rotation schedules, organization of services) and management methods.

Finally, there are environmental factors that may: encourage taking shortcuts concerning the established procedures; lead to distort some decisions, or create illusions might affect the allocation situations. In conclusion, the qualitative study of service provided by air traffic control requires consideration of human factors that unfortunately is the primary source of non-quality. Limiting factors to equate humans to human error or even a non-optimal human performance is insufficient to assess the quality of service provided by air traffic control. The commitment to a qualitative approach requires a number of factors, including an overview, a panel that will collect and analyze real-time elements in the model advocated by ICAO. When these issues are well understood, controlled and solved, we can aspire to a quality service in air traffic control, and we should imperatively to take human factors into consideration By L.A.K ACC ATC

With the new ICAO language proficiency requirements, learning English has become a priority for training in air traffic control. Few would argue that the requirements are not a good thing; the adherence to standard phraseology and proficiency in plain English language on the part of both pilots and controllers will undoubtedly improve pilot-controller communications, and therefore aviation safety. That said, the practical reality of implementing language training programmes presents a new set of challenges in air traffic control. Managers are now having to find the budget and reorganise their operations to accommodate language training and testing. Controllers are now having to squeeze their language studies into their busy professional lives, or simply spending less time doing what they do best controlling traffic. For these reasons and many more besides, learning English is no easy task. Despite these challenges, aviation language training has begun in earnest. It is now, more than ever before, that the aviation industry needs language courseware that will help controllers reach their objectives in a timely and efficient manner. It is widely recognised that if positive learning is to occur,
Be job specific. Although pilots and controllers occupy the two ends of the same communicative thread, it is essential that courseware is sufficiently flexible to allow controllers to engage in communication which is appropriate to their work position. Be contextualised. In order for controllers to feel that their learning is relevant to their professional sphere, it is important that courseware is set firmly within the context of aviation. Controllers quickly lose interest when they are faced with topics and material that are unrelated to their working lives. Contain radio-telephony in non-routine situations. It is crucial that courseware gives expo-
sure to authentic radio exchanges that feature deviations from the routine in aviation operations. It is very important to focus on how good communication plays a vital role in the resolution of non-routine and emergency situations. Be accurate. Language teachers are not teaching controllers to manage traffic but to be effective communicators in the English language. However, it is important that the aviation content is technically accurate so that controllers will trust the courseware as a reliable learning resource. Be linguistically sound. The target language should be transferable to the radio and include the relevant vocabulary, structures, functions and communicative strategies that will enable controllers to communicate effectively on the radio. Have clear learning objectives. It is important that learners know what it is they are learning and why. They should have sufficient opportunities to practise and consolidate this language in order to successfully reach these learning objectives. Be appropriate to the learners level. Much aviation-related material in English is aimed at a native-speaker audience. Texts and listening scripts in courseware should be both accessible to pre-operational users of English and challenging at the same time. Have variety in methodology. For courseware to appeal to a wide range of learning styles and differences in personality, it is important that there is variety in the training methodology employed. Learning is likely to be more successful when learners are faced with different exercise types and practice activities. Allow for learner creativity. No-one knows the work environment better than the controllers themselves. Courseware should provide the opportunity for controllers to be creative and to explore and experiment with language use in a workrelated context. Be engaging. Above all, courseware should engage, stimulate and provoke, and encourage genuine interest in subject matter. Communication in the classroom should be meaningful; the most effective learning takes place when controllers forget they are learning. www.macmillanenglish.com/aviationenglish www.emery-roberts.co.uk
DIVERTING
Few minutes later, the pilot informed tower that he heard the baby crying on board, it was good news: she had her baby. Shortly, the plane kissed ground safely, doctors hurried up to evacuate both woman and her baby through the hospital. The crew spent a short time just to disembark the woman and her baby then decided to continue until destination without refueling. The airbus left airport exactly at 04:14 am. The woman and her baby spent the night at Tamanrasset hospital. In the morning we went to visit them, you know the first question that she asked, are you doctors? We answered no at all, we are air traffic controllers, our friend told us about what happened last night, so we are here for help. She smiled and said in Spanish mi llamo Sonia Rakel, soy Guineano, estoy aqui con mi nio ,it means my name Sonia Rakel,from Guinea, Im here with my baby.
A WORD OF ENCOURAGEMENT Dear Colleagues , I take this opportunity to salute you for the dedication and hard work that you all do. Indeed it is a pleasure to count myself as part of this noble profession. As we celebrate this year the controller day, we look back to 50 years of great achievements in air traffic control. Reading the history of IFATCA and seeing how it has made strides in promoting air safety in the last decade, I realize that this could only happen because some men and women who went ahead of us made a decision to join hands together and push for what is right. If those first countries did not sit down and decide that they wanted to make a change we would be talking a different story today, but they did and so we have the story of IFATCA. In the last 50 years Controllers have gone to not a much known profession to one which is respected by all in the aviation industry and following the ILO resolution in 1979 many CAA improved the working conditions of controllers especially in the western countries. But in the recent past things have changed; today controllers all over the world are facing many challenges, many people believe that they are being given too much importance and too much money. We have seen cases of verbal attacks of the profession in the media, some even by some employers. Staff shortages at a time when traffic is increasing in our airspaces call for extra vigilance and stamina from every controller. We today can build on the foundation our fore fathers in air traffic control put in place; we can continue with the diligence and determination they portrayed when they set up IFATCA, to educate people and promote the profession in the world. Even when we are faced with hardship we must not stop because ours is a noble profession, we cannot compromise safety. I want to congratulate the Algerian air traffic controllers for the work that you are doing, I take note of the fact that very little serious incidents are reported in the Algerian airspace; this indicates the professionalism with which you perform you duties, well done and keep up the good work. Many Happy returns, and happy 50 years of good air traffic control, Keziah A Ogutu Executive Vice President Africa Middle East - IFATCA
Dear Air Traffic Controllers, Warm greetings from the United Kingdom. It is with the greatest pleasure that I, as an aviation English training professional, address you, the air traffic controllers of Algeria. In an already closely regulated professional environment with an unbeatable safety record, the ability to speak and understand English for radiotelephony communications is placing an additional strain on air traffic controllers around the world. Questions such as How do I reach level 4?, How do I fit this training into my busy work and family life? and, probably most importantly, What happens if I dont pass the test? are now at the forefront of every controllers mind. ENNA is now developing an in-house capability for language training and assessment which will no doubt lead to positive results nationwide. As you and your colleagues work together to set about the task of improving language proficiency over the coming weeks, months and years, and therefore contributing again to enhanced flight safety, may I wish you all, on behalf of Emery-Roberts Aviation English Training, every success. Good luck, and best wishes!
