The ACAS acronym refers to the ICAO standards for the Airborne Collision Avoidance System performance. T-CAS (Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System) refers to the aircraft equipment which is currently mandated at T-CAS II version 7.0.

This 5 day ACAS / TCAS training will ensure that Air Traffic Controllers and Pilots have a full and current understanding on how T-CAS alerts and advisories are generated.

Part of the training material used for this course was developed in cooperation with Eurocontrol and the “Centre d’Etudes de la Navigation Aerienne” (CENA – France).

• Acquire a full understanding of the ACAS set of worldwide standards.
• Increase your understanding of the mechanisms that lead to T-CAS Traffic Advisories (TA) and various Resolution Advisories (RA).
• Clarify the associated operational procedures.
• Provide a forum for controller and pilot feed-back on local operational issues regarding T-CAS events.

• Air Traffic Controllers
• Pilots

• Status of ACAS implementation worldwide
• Air Traffic Controller & Pilot specific procedures
• Multiple case studies
• Combined analysis of the Pilot vs Controller situational awareness
