COMSOFT GmbH - Solution provider and consultant to the Air Traffic Management sector

CAAZ will take delivery of new AFTN/AMHS and AIM system for installation at Harare International Airport in early 2010.

Harare/Zimbabwe, January 2010 – The Civil Aviation Authority of Zimbabwe (CAAZ) has awarded a contract to Germany-based COMSOFT for the supply and installation of new AFTN/AMHS and AIM systems for Harare International Airport. After already having operated a COMSOFT AFTN system over the last 13 years, this order is a tremendous endorsement of the German ATC expert’s products.

Besides its messaging node AIDA-NG, COMSOFT’s market-leading AMHS solution, CAAZ will soon benefit from the web-based aeronautical information terminal application CADAS, providing enhanced flight plan management as well as NOTAM and MET office functionality and intuitive, user-friendly handling of aeronautical information. Upon completion, Zimbabwe’s three international and five national airports will be interconnected to the main system in Harare via serial leased lines and secured IP connections.

With an increasing number of air navigation service providers to settle on AMHS, COMSOFT's AIDA-NG represents on a worldwide basis the most mature and proven systems for managing the transition from AFTN to AMHS. This globally deployed solution not only incorporates both AFTN and AMHS networks on one platform but also presents an unmatched track record when it comes to interoperability. This solution will optimally prepare Zimbabwe for any future developments in terms of aeronautical messaging.
