Ecole Nationale de l'Aviation Civile
This event is a great opportunity to meet Indian students interested in pursuing higher education in France and to showcase the excellence of our aeronautics and space programmes.
Come and see us on the following dates:

Our approach and tower simulators currently rely on systems identical to those deployed in operational environments.
An advantage in terms of realism, but also some limitations:
In early September, it was time for practice, the second stage of the program: the first group of 10 air traffic controllers successfully renewed their ratings directly on site, thanks to the ELSA simulator developed by ENAC and the presence of our examiners deployed from Toulouse.
Already available on the school’s E-Campus digital learning platform, ELSA is now evolving into a web-based application, expanding its accessibility, usage, and deployment potential.
Eight trainees successfully completed this demanding training, marking the end of a remarkable collaboration. Since 2015, 167 MUAC students have been trained at ENAC. This 10-year collaboration has enabled the vast majority of them to join MUAC’s operational teams, alongside the centre’s 310 controllers.
In practice, ASTRAL centralises scenarios, competency grids, evaluation forms and progress data on a multi-user platform (instructors, pseudo-pilots, training coordinators, students) that is accessible anywhere, anytime. This approach enables ASTRAL to serve as a structured pedagogical database, based on a Learning Record Store (LRS) principle, paving the way for cross-referenced and enriched exploitation of training data.
This training program complies fully with European Regulation 2015/340, which governs the issuance and maintenance of air traffic controller licenses.
The training is structured into two complementary phases:
Trajectory-based operations (TBO) are a key enabler of the SESAR vision for future air traffic management. TBO is about building, sharing, and agreeing on a common 4D trajectory (latitude, longitude, altitude, and time) for each flight - from planning through to execution — and ensuring that all air traffic management systems and services stay aligned with it.
The benefits: Greater predictability, increased network capacity, and improved environmental performance.
