In Tanzania, for instance, there are peak periods during the month or day when the country's air space becomes congested with aircraft—big and small—thus making their control difficult, a situation which causes air movement delays and suspicion that our air space is not safe.
The monitoring of aircraft movement within the country's airspace is done by the air traffic controllers at the airports who communicate with the pilots on various aspects of aviation such as take-off, landing, speed and locations of aircraft in the air.
Furthermore, on the eastern side of the continent, Tanzania supervises the Indian Ocean air space between the coastline and Longitude 44 degrees and between Latitude 5 degrees South and latitude 11 degrees South.
