DDN transmission link opened at Kuerle airport

The ground-air communication remote control station at Kuerle Airport in Xinjiang is now operational following the adjustment of its digital data network transmission link. Last July 10, the Communication and Navigation Station of Xinjiang Air Traffic Management Bureau under the Civil Aviation Administration of China sent technicians to Kuerle Airport to adjust the VHF ground-air communication remote control station. After tests made by technicians from Urumqi and Kuerle Airports, the link was finished. The Kuerle Airport VHF ground-air communication remote control station will provide air route command service for regional flight control administration. The link is important to prevent communication failure between flight controllers and aircraft flying in the area. The opening of the DDN transmission has solved the problem at Kuerle Airport, where there was no backup for single transmission link.
