Safety

LFV's control of the air traffic, civil and military, in Swedish airspace contributes to a safe, efficient and environmentally sound traffic flow. Our air traffic controllers ensure that aircrafts within the controlled part of the airspace do not collide with each other or any other obstacles in the air or on the ground.

Safety is at all times LFV's highest priority and is guided by our Safety Management System. We work systematically to identify and prevent all conceivable risks for accidents, we continually maintain the safety goals given us by the EC and we strive to ensure that safety continually improves regardless of any traffic increase.

LFV applies besides the common EC ANS-rules, also the regulations from the national Aviation Act, the Aviation Ordinance and the Swedish Transport Agency which regulates all air navigation services in Sweden, for both military and civil aviation. All security-critical elements in the organization have been broken down and described in handbooks, procedures and instructions.

Thanks to many years of experience and international cooperation, extensive rules and regulations for air navigation services have been developed. LFV as an ANS-P adhere to the regulations as developed by ICAO and further governed by the EC and their Aviation bureau, EASA.

Aviation security is the work we do to prevent or impede illegal actions that aim our operation or personnel. We work systematically to ensure the highest possible aviation security.
