The first new airport in Sweden in 20 years has been inaugurated, Scandinavian Mountains Airport in S\u00e4len. Saab is providing the on-site camera tower in S\u00e4len and digital air traffic control services from Saab\u2019s remote tower centre in Sundsvall.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scandinavian Mountains Airport has entrusted Saab Digital Air Traffic Solutions (SDATS) to both install the system and remotely manage air traffic control from Sundsvall. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOne of the advantages of remote air traffic control is operational flexibility, which makes it easier for us to manage varying volumes of traffic over the seasons,\u201d says Per Ahl, CEO of Saab Digital Air Traffic Solutions. \u201cRemote air traffic control is also safe and cost-effective. We are now providing a comprehensive concept to the first airport in the world with fully digital air traffic control.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The contract covers the installation of Saab\u2019s remote tower system at the airport in 2018\/19, as well as the provision of air traffic control from Sundsvall for a period of 10 years starting December 2019. The airport mainly serves the ski resorts in the S\u00e4len\/Trysil area during the winter season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSaab\u2019s Remote Tower technology and services were the natural choice for us when we built our airport,\u201d says Gunnar Lenman, CEO of Scandinavian Mountains Airport. \u201cIt enables us to future-proof our business and ensure cost-effective and flexible services. Furthermore, we envision the airport playing a part in large-scale digital transition for our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Commissioning of the airport will take place during the 2019\/20 winter season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saab Digital Air Traffic Solutions is a joint venture between Saab and the Swedish Civil Aviation Administration (LFV). By combining LFV\u2019s unique operational experience with Saab\u2019s world-class technical solutions, Saab Digital Air Traffic Solutions can manage the entire process from planning and implementation to the administration of air traffic control services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
