The Journal of Air Traffic Control
The Journal of Air Traffic Control is a quarterly magazine devoted to developments in air traffic control. It contains articles on current issues involving ATC operations, innovative concepts and applications of technology to ATC, public policy debates impacting ATC, commentary by noted aviation experts and policy makers, ATC historical material, and reviews of books and videos of interest to the aviation community. The Journal is designed to be of general interest to all professionals involved in air traffic control and other aviation disciplines, such as ATC specialists, managers, engineers, pilots, researchers, and members of the academic community.
The Journal was recently redesigned by Lester Publications and ATCA is proud to display the latest edition of the Journal (to left). Normally a member-exclusive benefit, the association will momentarily be making the Journal available to the public, to publicize the new design and exemplary content.
