Features: This book systematically explains the content of air traffic services, with a focus on flight information and warning services, as well as a comprehensive and systematic discussion of air traffic management. Among them, the sections on airspace planning and management, and air traffic flow management incorporate advanced technologies and experiences from both domestic and international sources. The airport control, procedural control, and radar control sections in air traffic control are closely aligned with the content of the new "Civil Aviation Air Traffic Management Regulations of China," while also reflecting international new development trends. The book is richly illustrated, easy to understand, logically structured, and includes review questions at the end of each chapter for self-study. It can serve as a textbook for transportation majors in civil aviation and military aviation institutions, as well as for on-the-job air traffic controllers and related aviation operations and flight support personnel for learning and reference. Compared to similar domestic books, this book emphasizes alignment with international standards, extensively introducing advanced international experiences and cutting-edge knowledge, addressing the shortcomings of insufficient internationalization in similar textbooks. As a foundational textbook, studying this book enables air transportation students to acquire basic knowledge of various air traffic control operations and fundamental skills for control work, familiarize themselves with the tasks and requirements of air traffic control, master the procedures for flight organization and implementation, and develop essential skills for air traffic service work. This lays a solid foundation for further study in air traffic control (airport control, procedural control, radar control) and future practical work. For students in flight, dispatch, and flight information services, studying this book not only helps them understand the basic methods and procedures of air traffic service work but also provides a systematic understanding of air traffic control (airport control, procedural control, radar control) relevant to their future careers.
