The Viet Nam Air Traffic Management Corporation (VATM) on Friday signed a contract with the US’s Mitre Corporation for technical assistance to develop air traffic flow management in Viet Nam.

VATM said that with increasing aviation activities in domestic and regional markets, it was necessary for the company to have a comprehensive air traffic flow management plan.

The project will be implemented in 16 months with funding provided by the US Trade and Development Agency.

The project aims to establish a plan for air traffic flow management by 2025 and a roadmap for international integration in air traffic management.

Founded in 1958 in Virginia, Mitre is a non-profit organisation with seven research and development centres.

Mitre developed air traffic flow management plan for the US Federal Aviation Administration.

It also helps develop air traffic flow management for India, Indonesia, South Korea, Singapore and Taiwan. — VNS
