	The objects and problems of Air Traffic Control - Airport International
		IFATCA is an independent, non-political, non-profit and non-industrial Professional Federation representing more than forty thousand air traffic controllers in one-hundred-twenty-eight countries worldwide.
		In the immediate and short term, most IFATCA members will be facing the current crisis being experienced by the global aviation industry, acknowledged as the largest crisis ever faced in the modern aviation history.
		The vision of IFATCA on safety is that as a result of the changing nature of the present ATM system, which involves many factors ranging from the status of the ATS providers to the reduction of separation standards, there must be one constant in the process and that is safety.

	ATC Brasil: Is it safe to fly in Brazil? Marc Baumgartner IFATCA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		Plan B is that all safety barriers, such as qualified staff, functioning infrastructure, and safe and international procedures are lowered and the risks have been increased that the Air Traffic Control system will contribute to another accident in the coming month.
		However, IFATCA will still continue to try to bring about change and contribute to the reform and improved safety in Brazil.
		IFATCA wrote to the Brazilian government to request that the representatives of our air traffic control profession be associated to the change process and that we are offering our assistance in the implementation of the urgently needed reform.

	Skycontrol.net: IFATCA announces Lebanon Airspace-Safety compromised!
		IFATCA and IFALPA believe that in the interests of air safety that air traffic control must be carried out by controllers who hold a current ATCO Licence issued in accordance with ICAO Annex 1 and with the appropriate ratings and competency required for their duties.
		Clearly, the placement of these inexperienced, under-trained and unqualified officers in key positions has dealt a severe blow to the integrity of air safety not only in Lebanon but to the wider region, with implications for air traffic transiting the country to and from the Eastern Mediterranean and the Middle East.
		IFATCA and IFALPA respectfully requests that the Lebanese government return qualified and experienced air traffic controllers to their jobs while the dispute is resolved.

	Associates: NZALPA
		Much of IFATCA’s effort is focused on monitoring and influencing ICAO’s programmes so they benefit the overall safety of aviation while promoting the interests of the ATC community.
		The creation or revision of policy is of particular importance as it is IFATCA policy that MAs will refer to when addressing subjects at home within their own professional/technical/industrial areas.
		To fully perform its role, IFATCA relies heavily on additional support from the MAs who volunteer for more prominent roles (such as Standing Committees and the Executive Board), the gracious support with travel from many airlines when available, or other industry player sponsorship for events such as conference.

		IFATCA has condemned the stance of the Brazilian Government to let the military FAB introduce its so called Plan B.

		Member associations of IFATCA from all regions of the world unite in the common aim for optimum flight safety and efficiency.
		IFATCA and its partner organisations will continue to monitor working conditions and promote increased recruitment of staff.

	IFATCA expresses concern over air traffic control privatisation Airline Industry Information - Find Articles (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		Members of the International Federation of Air Traffic Controllers' Associations (IFATCA), the global body representing air traffic controllers (ATCs), attended an annual general meeting at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport on 23 March where they voiced concerns over the privatisation within the industry and the delegation of some decisions to pilots.
		A delegate from IFATCA's Netherlands division stated that safety levels would be affected by the privatisation of air traffic control and suggested that airlines should 'consider putting less aircraft into the system' in order to help reduce congestion, delays and ATC workloads.
		IFATCA has prepared a Vision Document from the conference that suggested technology was being introduced too quickly and without adequate preparation in an attempt to reduce congestion.

	Brazil ATC system implicated in crash-05/12/2006-London-Flight International
		IFATCA says the centre's airspace monitoring system can automatically update altitude-clearance information on the controller's display, without controller intervention.
		"To date, IFATCA has not received a convincing explanation of why the software of [the Cindacta-1 centre] is tuned in such a strange way," says the federation.
		IFATCA describes the Cindacta-1 set-up as "non-error tolerant" and says that it believes this created an "unacceptable system trap" which reduced the situational awareness of both the controllers and pilots.

		IFATCA President Marc Baumgartner says “the Brazilian government has focused much energy in chasing scapegoats instead of re-engineering the necessary safety oversight and risk assessment to prevent Brazilian civil aviation from falling into deeper chaos.

	Airdisaster.Com Forums - Transponder drop-outs spark AD
		IFATCA has written to the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), Eurocontrol and the Joint Aviation Authorities to try to accelerate the process of approving a permanent modification to the transponder to supersede the current operational “fix” proposed by Honeywell.
		IFATCA says EASA is shortly to publish an airworthiness directive (AD), but under present rules it would give carriers a year to comply, which it says is too long.
		Honeywell has told pilots to select the transponder to standby before inputting the new code, then back to active once the code has been set; or they can check the annunciators on the unit or on the ACAS display after a reset, and if they indicate standby they should select the transponder to active.
