Boeing has entered into an agreement with AirNav Indonesia to explore initiatives aimed at further improving the safety and efficiency of Indonesia's national air traffic management system.
Enhancing airport and flight operations can contribute to the safety and long-term viability of Indonesia's aviation system by enabling more efficient aircraft movement and reducing fuel consumption.
The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) brings together Boeing's engineering expertise with the Indonesian government's key initiatives in airspace management, training, and strategic planning for air traffic management. Boeing and AirNav will collaborate closely with Indonesia's Directorate General of Civil Aviation, local airlines, airport operators, and other stakeholders in the aviation industry.
“AirNav Indonesia is dedicated to ensuring that our airspace system adopts and maintains the highest levels of safety while supporting the growth of Indonesia's civil aviation industry,” said Mdm. Polana B. Pramesti, President Director of AirNav Indonesia. “Airspace capacity and air traffic management are areas of mutual interest for Boeing and AirNav, and a natural domain for cooperation. We are eager to collaborate with Boeing in this endeavor.”
“Indonesia, with its emerging market economy, is home to one of the largest aviation markets in Asia,” stated Mike Sinnett, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Product Development for Boeing Commercial Airplanes. “We are committed to supporting Indonesia's civil aviation industry and are excited to partner with AirNav to explore sustainable solutions that enhance the country's air traffic management system, prioritising safety.”
Boeing and Indonesia have enjoyed a partnership spanning over 74 years, working together to foster the development of aerospace and defence capabilities in the country through training, supply chain support, and collaborations. Presently, Boeing's presence in Indonesia encompasses commercial aviation, defence, space, supply chain, and academic partnerships.
