Sounds like a Single North European Sky! Just need to work out how the nine Borealis members will manage the airspace. That, sadly, was not disclosed.<!--more-->\r\n\r\nA further step will be enabled by Aireon which &#8220;.. plans to provide the first opportunity for global air traffic surveillance (using ADSB) as early as 2017.&#8221; Aireon has announced an agreement with Blue Med FAB ANSPs which will support action \u201c&#8230; already establishing an efficient platform for the harmonization of surveillance throughout the Mediterranean Area.\u201d\r\n\r\nDoes this look like ANSPs willing to contract in what have previously been considered core functions? The list started with charging systems and the AIS database and then, sometimes, ab initio ATC training. Aireon can add provision of surveillance data.
