IFALPA MEETINGS & EVENTS
The ATS Committee Meeting was held at the ICAO WACAF Regional Offices, Dakar, Senegal 19-21 November
2019. IFALPA received a warm welcome from ICAO and were well hosted by the RVP AFI/West on behalf of
the local Association (SPLS). SPLS provided very innovative gifts for each attendee; paintings done by a local
teenager depicting aircraft, the IFALPA logo, and a unique form of Senegalese road transport, which were
deeply appreciated. There were several new members attending for the first time.
There were over 30 papers on the agenda covering reports from the ICAO Panel and Regional meetings
attended by members of the Committee and developing positions and policy.
The Draft IP on policy in Annex 11 for ADS-B was finalised and there was a detailed review of the Hot Topics
and Projects resulting in some deletions and one addition of Remote Towers. The Vision Statement will be
reviewed next year by ATS Chairperson and Vice Chairs to ensure the information remains current.
