Honeywell’s ATM Division Progresses in Asia-Pacific
SmartPath, SmartRunway and SmartLanding are all in demand, says Honeywell.
Honeywell’s satellite-based SmartPath, SmartRunway and SmartLanding air traffic management systems could be beneficial to China’s rapidly expanding airport infrastructure. The technology permits reduced spacing for landing aircraft, among many other safety and usage improvements.

Growing numbers of aircraft pose increasing difficulties for the smooth management of busy airports and airspace, says Honeywell (Stand G39). But this can be alleviated, a leading air traffic management (ATM) official told AIN, in part by introducing advanced systems that can allow different angles of approach to avoid wake turbulence. Other ways to improve the situation include savvier ways to get departing aircraft from gates to taxiways, he said.
