On May 27, the TRUSTY consortium gathered at ENAC premises for a productive face-to-face meeting to align on key outcomes and plan how to bring research results to the broader aviation and ATM community.
Auto-Steer Taxi at Airport (ASTAIR) – a SESAR exploratory research project led by ENAC – held a key validation session on ACHIL simulation platform from 12 to 16 May 2025.

ENAC unveils eStrip — a next-generation digital tool designed to modernize training practices while building on existing systems.

Three of our flagship SESAR research projects — CODA, HYPERSOLVER and TRUSTY — were featured in the SESAR Walking Tours, spotlighting the latest innovations in airspace management.

From May 13 to 15, 2025, ENAC will participate in Airspace World 2025 in Lisbon, alongside France Aviation Civile Services and the French Civil Aviation Authority (DGAC).

We were happy to see ASTAIR (Auto-Steer Taxi at Airport) the SESAR exploratory research project led by ENAC, represented at the Fly AI Forum 2025, held on 22–23 April at EUROCONTROL Headquarters in Brussels.

Last Thursday, Thierry De Basquiat, Director of the DFPV, signed an agreement with the Chinese national airline Air China for the flight training of its future pilots. This 3-year agreement marks a major step forward in international cooperation in the field of aviation training.

TRUSTY (Trustworthy Intelligent System for Remote Digital Tower) is a research SESAR project aiming to understand how air traffic controllers (ATCOs) interact with, and trust, explainable AI systems in remote digital tower environments.

Air traffic is much more than just aircraft moving through the sky. It encompasses all aircraft in flight and those operating on the ground, on the maneuvering area of an aerodrome (the part used for takeoffs, landings and aircraft movement on the surface, excluding parking areas).

On April 1st, ENAC participated in the SIGN-AIR hybrid Technical Review Meeting, bringing together experts from air and public transport, data engineering, standardisation, and regulation. The meeting focused on assessing overall project progress, reviewing the solution, and discussing key areas such as deliverables, risks, standardisation, regulatory topics, past activities, and communication strategies. The session concluded with project recommendations and future directions.
