Airports keeping pace with technology, says AAI official

Chennai: The Airports Authority of India is keeping pace with technology and growth in air traffic to create infrastructure for air navigation services, said senior aviation official V Somasundaram.
The Airports Authority of India board member said modernisation of air traffic control management and communication systems would not impact the existing work force.
The air traffic controllers might have to be shuffled, but there would not be reduction in human resource, he said on the sidelines of a seminar on Aviation Communication - Defining perspectives organised by Aeronautical Communication Officers Association on Thursday.
Alok Varshney, general secretary, ACOA said the communication wing has been facing staff shortage of up to 50% at many stations.
