SIRIUS

The SIRIUS Program is based on the use of strategic solutions for the continuous evolution of Brazilian Air Traffic Management System to a more safety and environmentally sustainable reality.
Headed by the Department of Airspace Control, the gradual implementation of the SIRIUS Program will ensure to Brazil, over a time horizon of short, medium and long terms, the increase of the required operational capacity in view of the demands coming from the high air traffic growth forecasted for the first decades of the 21st century, maintaining at the same time, the desired levels of operational safety.
