Voice Communication Control System for NATS UK

From February 2006, Meine van der Meulen works for Park Air Systems (Oslo) and became involved in the safety team for the Voice Communication Control System for National Air Traffic Services UK. This system is to replace all communication equipment for Air Traffic Control in the entire UK. He first focused on building safety cases for the parts of the system, following SW01, and using the "Guidance for the use of SW01 for COTS equipment" provided by NATS. Later his task changed to more systemic aspects, e.g. writing the System Safety Assessment, following the SAM Guidelines provided by Eurocontrol.
