Adelaide opens new ATC high-tech tower

摘要

Australian deputy prime minister, Anthony Albanese, has officially opened Adelaide Airport's new 44-metre-tall ATC tower, which brings its air traffic control systems into the digital era. The A$16.9 million ($15.2m) complex replaces a 21-metre-high tower that dated back to 1983. Airport managing director, Mark Young, says Airservices Australia and the airport had worked together on the project for several years. "Having a modern air traffic control facility matches our commitment to operate Australia's most modern airport," he enthuses.
