The flight volume within the Shenyang control region is rapidly increasing, prompting authorities to add a third sector. The original sector plot established over ten years ago no longer meets the current demand as civil aviation is experiencing rapid development in Shenyang. After investigation and discussion, the third sector was added. Before the new sector was opened, the Shenyang Air Traffic Control Center applied for two additional telephone hotlines, adjusted some equipment, improved the video chart, cleared up the work program, and revised control transfer regulation. On the other hand, the personnel were given new guidelines and training regarding the new sector. The opening of the third sector relaxed the work pressure on controllers, improved safety and made utilization of airspace more reasonable.
