Aerospace Control, or AEC, Officers play an important role in North American airspace. They work as air traffic controllers in control towers and terminals on Royal Canadian Air Force bases in Canada, expertly guiding aircraft through the skies using visual and instrument flight rules.
AEC Officers also serve as Air Battle Managers in air defence and air operations command centres all over the world - both on the ground, and in the air onboard command and control aircraft called AWACS. Air Battle Managers conduct a variety of missions - from counter-drug operations to full-spectrum combat. Each of these missions are unique and require detailed planning. As tactical command and control experts, Air Battle Managers position aircraft, sensors, and airborne systems to maximize the combat capability of the RCAF and Allied forces.
