The role of EUROCONTROL in the adoption of new technologies and its reaction in the process of standardisation related to air transport with a focus on a vision 2050
The field of air transport governance is dynamic and changing quite rapidly. This article analyses the European system of air traffic management (ATM) as a specific case study of EU regulation of standardisation and how it is changing towards a modernisation of the entire system. The creation of the single European sky is a growing area of EU policy, which shows the potential and difficulties of coordinating national competence, with the aim of boosting the efficiency of air transport in Europe. The application of the standardisation process will be extended to EUROCONTROL with a focus on its role in the adoption of new technologies and its reaction in the process of standardisation related to air transport up to 2050.
