ATX 2024 Classes: Safety in the National Airspace System

Dec 12, 2024

The safety of the National Airspace System (NAS) is at the core of NATCA's mission. At NATCA's Activism and Training Expo (ATX) 2024, classes focused on NATCA's safety efforts, from local reporting and facility-level improvements to national and international coordination on policy and technology. Classes like "Inside NATCA's Safety and Technology Department" and "Operational Risk Management" equipped members with tools to address risks, improve operations, and ensure the highest safety standards in the National Airspace System (NAS). These sessions reinforced NATCA's role as a global leader in aviation safety.
