- Bern, Switzerland.

Murzilli Consulting’s Senior Consultant Marina Estal has joined CANSO’s Complete Air Traffic System (CATS) Global Council Working Area 3 (WA3) group.

Marina Estal is an aeronautical engineer whose vast experience in Air Traffic Management (ATM) spans over 10 years. In her position as the Head of Airspace Policy for the Spanish Civil Aviation Authority (DCAC), she was responsible for airspace management at a strategic level, which consisted of configuration of the airspace, civil-military coordination matters regarding Flexible Use of the Airspace (FUA), volcanic ash contingency management and the development of the UAS sector in airspace matters including leading the U-space implementation in Spain.

With Marina’s expert knowledge and leadership skills within the Airspace and ATM sector, she provides valuable insight into UAS and ATM regulations, rulemaking, sustainability and crewed and uncrewed aircraft. She also provides consultation services related to national airspace management policies, higher airspace management policies and U-space implementation.

The CATS Global Council is an independent innovation forum launched by CANSO in 2021 that aims to facilitate collaboration between aviation and aerospace industry leaders to ensure the future of aviation remains adaptable and resilient. The organisation connects more than 80 aviation and aerospace organisations as they work together with the combined goal of creating a combined crewed and uncrewed airspace by 2045. 

The CATS Global Council roadmap has created 14 goals, which will cover over 70 milestones and 100 actions based on 7 building blocks: services and service delivery, technology and digitisation, safety and regulation, environmental sustainability and social impact, airspace design and classification, data and security and people organisation and talent.

The CATS GC Work Programme 2023-2025 is currently focusing on the CATS Working Area 3 (WA3) "Optimised & Simplified Airspace,” phase which will concentrate on several main activities involving the overall evaluation of the current airspace and where it will evolve in the upcoming years, the changes needed for new entrants and the relevant stakeholders.

"I'm honoured to be a part of the CATS Working Area 3 (WA3) "Optimised & Simplified Airspace". I appreciate the recognition of my expertise, and I'm thrilled to be able to contribute from my current position at Murzilli Consulting and to be part of the next era of aviation."
