Air Navigation Services of the Czech Republic (ANS CR)

Air Navigation Services of the Czech Republic, known as ANS CR, is the Czech air navigation service provider. The company covers the Czech airspace and Czech designated airports. Its head office is in Jeneč near Prague.

The company provides information on all types of air navigation services in Czech airspace. It also operates the radar, navigation and telecommunication infrastructure that supports its safe services. Its ATM systems work keeps those services reliable.

The Aeronautical Information Management centre supplies the data and information needed for safe, regular and efficient national and international air navigation. The company also runs Free Route Airspace, which lets airspace users plan their routes flexibly and helps ANS CR respond to changes in demand.

ANS CR runs a drone portal with information on the safe operation of drones and on sharing airspace with other users. The site publishes monthly traffic figures for the Prague Flight Information Region and Prague Airport.

The Czech Air Navigation Institute, called CANI, is the company's ATM training institute. CANI says it has 30 years of industry and training experience. It trains staff for air navigation service providers in Europe and beyond, and it offers technical personnel training and flight inspection.

Flight inspection services use a modern flight fleet to check navigation ground equipment and procedures. The company has offered calibration flights to customers in the Czech Republic and abroad for many years.

The Czech Aviation Training Centre, called CATC, trains professional pilots and flight personnel. It also offers requalification to individual applicants, simulator flights and team building for the public. The company's partners and memberships listed on the site include CANSO, SESAR and FAB CE, and it holds an EFQM certification.
