 HISTORY

BEZMER MILITARY AIR TRAFFIC SERVICES

AUTHORITY ( MATSA ) CENTER is founded in
1999 to respond to increasing requirements of air
traffic services procedures arousing from many
significant changes in Aviation Administration
Documents made in compliance with ICAO and
EUROCONTROL rules. Firstly BEZMER MATSA
CENTER includes APPROACH SECTOR and
FLIGHT INFORMATION SERVICE. In 2000 the
center is completed with TOWER SECTOR and
CONTROL SECTOR and the full number of officers,
air traffic controllers and sergeants arises to 35.
 DAILY ACTIVITIES

During the years of its existence the ATC CENTER

has been providing the service of all scheduled flights
of 22ndAir Force Base, all the Traffic ( commercial or
military ) incoming and departing Bezmer Airfield 24
hours a day.
 MAIN PURPOSES

The service provided for the purpose of :

- preventing collisions between aircrafts
- preventing collisions in operations areas between
aircrafts and obstructions on the ground
- expediting and maintaining the orderly flow of Air
Traffic
BEZMER MATSA CENTER STRUCTURE

BEZMER MATSA CENTER includes three Air Traffic

Control Sectors TOWER, APPROACH, CONTROL each of
them controlled by a team of five or six Air Traffic Controllers
and FLIGHT INFORMATION SERVICE. Each team of
controllers applies very elaborate procedures driven by
imperative safety requirements and is responsible for the areas
designated in the General Aviation Administration Documents.
 TOWER

The TOWER is responsible for the Air Traffic

Service in the close vicinity of the airfield
(traffic pattern and long final ) and is obligated
to help the pilot in all cases of emergency
situations. The Tower gives the clearances for
engines start up, taxi instructions, regulates all
the traffic on the ground including aircrafts and
flights maintainance vehicles, gives the
clearances for take-off and landing, landing
instructions and updated weather conditions.
 APPROACH

The APPROACH SECTOR is responsible for

the Air Traffic Service within the 30 nautical
miles area and gives the arrival and departure
iformation, instructions for entering the traffic
circuit, all procedures for ILS, NDB and VOR
approach. Equiped with very hi-tech radar
system GCA - 2000 the APPROACH can help
the pilot and provides the landing in very bad
meteorological conditions like visibility lower
than 2km and cloud base lower than 600ft.
 FLIGHT INFORMATION SERVICE

The FIS provides aeronautical information essential

for the safety, regularity and efficiency of air
navigation and relative to the route stages originating
at the aerodrome shall be made available to flight
operations personnel and flight crews. The FIS
submits the filled flight plans to Flight Coordination
and Planning Center in SOFIA and provides the
usage of designated TSAs ( Temporarily Segregated
Areas ), TMA ( Terminal areas ) and CTR ( Control
zone ).
