Air Traffic Services
The Air Traffic Services section approves and monitors the provision of ATS at 24 South African airports, as well as monitoring the licence validity of Air Traffic Controllers (ATC) and Air Traffic Service Officers (ATSO) at the various Air Traffic Service Units around the country.
