Indra to commission the new Kolkata Air Traffic Control Cent're

These new contracts reinforce the company's solid position in the country. Indra's achievements in India so far include a major project in 2010 to deploy 9 Mode S radar stations and implement its air traffic management systems in the towers of 38 airports. At the time, this project constituted one of the largest contracts ever awarded in terms of the number of systems anywhere in the world.
The AAI has once again trusted in Indra's experience and know-how for its new control centre at Kolkata, which will operate with the company's automated air traffic management systems. This centre will be one of the four biggest in the country and, due to its location, will control a significant proportion of flights to and from Southeast Asia. Indra will equip the Kolkata centre with approximately 80 air traffic control positions.
Additionally, the company will provide the AAI with four approach and tower simulators, which will be operational at the country's main centres: Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata. Each one of them will have approximately 40 positions.
