The aviation industry in the Middle East has benefited significantly from the region’s strategic location – at the cross roads of major economies in Asia, Africa and Europe. Due to its geographical location, Middle East carriers can easily connect to any continent in the world: From the well-established international hubs of Doha, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, aircraft can reach almost all of Asia, Africa, Europe within a flying range of eight hours.
Over the years, ACI Asia-Pacific has played an active role in the area of aviation security and facilitation in the Middle East. Mr. Gary Leung, Manager, Security and Facilitation of ACI Asia-Pacific, is currently the vice-chair of the ICAO Middle East Regional Aviation Security and Facilitation Implementation Team (RAFIT).
Alphanumeric callsign is a proven way of reducing the risk of confusion amongst pilots, ATC and airports of very similar callsigns such as EK1234 and QR1234. The concept is simple: replace the numeric part of the callsign with a string of letters and numbers to maximize of the number of possible combinations and hence minimize the occurrences of similar callsigns. For example UAE408 would become UAE58E.
