Directing Safe Flights Across Canada

Air traffic controllers are responsible for keeping flights safe and efficient across the nation, 24/7. Operating from control towers at airports and in front of radar screens in area control centres, they’re responsible for overseeing 18 million square kilometres of airspace. They adhere to strict protocols and issue precise instructions to ensure the safe movement of aircraft in the air and on the ground.

Takeoff
At an airport with a control tower, the pilot contacts a tower controller to obtain clearance to move from their gate to their assigned runway, via a specific path. That same controller, or a teammate, will then give takeoff clearance when the runway and airspace are clear and it is safe to do so.
Enroute
As an aircraft travels over land or sea, and at various altitudes, the airplane may pass through different pieces of airspace. Airspace is divided up into sectors. As your plane passes from one to the other, or climbs into high level airspace, it is monitored on radar screens and control is passed from one controller to another.
Descent
When a plane approaches its destination, high or low level controllers instruct the pilot on safe descent routes. The air traffic controller ensures the plane has a safe separation distance from other aircraft approaching the airport.
Approach
Low level or terminal air traffic controllers issue instructions to the pilot to line the airplane up with the runway so they are in the correct position to land.
Landing
Tower controllers issue landing and taxi clearance to get the aircraft to its parking position at the airport.
