Have you ever wondered what the job of an air traffic controller entails, or what an ATC centre looks like, or maybe even thought about becoming an air traffic controller yourself?

Now is your chance to get to know the answers to all your questions because EUROCONTROL's Maastricht Upper Area Control Centre (MUAC) is organising an Open Day on Saturday 21 September 2019 for those young people who are interested in air traffic control.

During the Open Day you will get a guided tour of the centre, see where the air traffic controllers work, receive their training and spend their break times. You will also meet active air traffic controllers and student controllers, as well as our experts who can tell you more about what you need to become an air traffic controller and what other types of jobs and traineeship opportunities MUAC offers.
