EUROCONTROL to unveil new air traffic control system
At 3 pm on 23-Mar-09, EUROCONTROL's Maastricht Control Centre will unveil its new air traffic control system in the presence of official representatives from Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands and Luxembourg, and the Director General of EUROCONTROL.


 
The Netherlands Minister for Transport, Public Works and Water Management, Mr Camiel Eurlings, will be permanently shutting down the old system, which dates back to the early 1970s. Air traffic control over Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and north-west Germany will thereafter be exclusively provided via the new flight data processing system.
