Call for papers of the International Air Transport and Operations Symposium (ATOS 2010) extended until  January 4th 2010! ATOS 2010 will take place on April 14 -15, 2010.

The hot topic of ATOS 2010 is how air transport can evolve to continue to add value in the 21st Century! Some of the key aerospace value challenges are typified by the SESAR goals for 2020 in being able to handle a threefold increase in capacity, improving safety by a factor of 10, reducing environmental impact by 10% and reducing expenses by a half. However, this is all in the context of our current financial crises and the need for industry stakeholders to remain solvent and competitive. ATOS 2010 will consider these issues as we go into the 2nd century of aviation!

The distinctive tracks of the conference are:

1. Airlines, Airports and ATM
2. Integration, Environmental Issues and Technology Innovation
3. Value Engineering and Business Innovation
4. Service Support and Life cycle analysis
