Indra air traffic navigation systems will be used during take-off and landing

Indra has been awarded a contract by Incheon International Airport Corporation for air traffic navigation systems

The contract means Indra will become the sole provider of landing systems to Incheon’s four runways, contributing to safety and operational stability at the airport, including in low-visibility conditions. Incheon Airport is certified to operate in low-visibility conditions, known as CAT III, which impose very strict quality and integrity requirements.

Indra will supply its Normarc instrument landing systems (ILS), distance measuring equipment (DME) and DVOR radio navigation systems, systems which all contribute to aircraft navigation during the approach and landing.

Incheon, the main airport of Seoul, was recently ranked as the world’s fourth best airport by Skytrax. Indra’s radars and air traffic management systems manage all arriving and departing flights, as well as movements on the ground.
