Inside Europe's Busiest Air Traffic Control - Amsterdam

Amsterdam is Europe’s busiest airport, in terms of movements and top 3 in terms of passenger numbers. In 2018, it handled over 70 million passengers, with over 500,000 movements. I visited the Air Traffic Control Tower and Radar Centre in Amsterdam, to find out how the air traffic is managed in one of the busiest European Airports.
The ATC tower controller explains all the working positions, runway configurations and movements inside the ATC tower at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport. I was given a behind the scene tour and enjoyed some awesome plane spotting views up in the 101m tower.
Then, I visited the LVNL Radar Centre. A controller explains how the radar controls work. In fact, once the plane leaves the gate it will remain in contact with the tower and many different area controls until it lands and arrives at the gate. The visit gave me a great insight as to how Air Traffic Control works in today’s crowded skies.

    As a Dutch pilot flying in and out of Amsterdam on a regular basis, I really enjoyed watching this video tour around various radar control departments. Many familiar voices, but never have seen their faces. Very good work delivered by them; accurate, efficient and always very friendly.

    I was a controller at a US enroute center that might be equivalent to what she calls area control in Europe. This woman gave an excellent explanation of how the system operates. Very clear and articulate. I used to enjoy giving tours to visitors and hope I was half as good at explaining the job as she is. Nicely done.

    The Dutch have got to be some of the nicest people I have ever interacted with. I was transferring through Schiphol a few years back and as I was going through security at the gate, I asked the security officer if I had to take my shoes off. He just looked down at my shoes, looked up at me and said “Well that depends. What’s your shoe size?” with the biggest smile I have ever seen on any airport security officer in the world 😂😂 great attitude!
