The Nigerian Air Force (NAF), through the Air Traffic Services Training Centre (ATSTC), has graduated 49 personnel from the Air Traffic Control Assistant/Base Operations Upgrading Course 9/2026 and Fire Upgrading Course 10/2026, further strengthening operational air safety and airfield support capabilities across NAF operational theatres and joint-user airfields. The intensive 4-week programmes equipped participants with advanced competencies in air traffic control procedures, aerodrome operations, emergency coordination, aircraft rescue and firefighting operations essential to sustaining safe and effective air missions.
As part of the training, participants underwent rigorous classroom instruction, simulator-based exercises and practical drills covering runway incursion prevention, flight data processing, aerodrome inspections, NOTAM origination, aircraft firefighting tactics and mass casualty response procedures. The Fire Upgrading Course also focused on achieving ICAO-standard emergency response timelines, while guided study tours to 401 Flying Training School and Hassan Usman Katsina International Airport, Kaduna, provided trainees with valuable exposure to real-time operational environments and best practices in airfield management and emergency response operations.
Speaking during the graduation ceremony, the Commandant of ATSTC, Air Vice Marshal NB Folaji, emphasized the critical role of air traffic control, base operations and firefighting personnel in ensuring safe, efficient and uninterrupted flying operations. He commended the graduating personnel for their discipline, resilience and commitment throughout the training, noting that the successful completion of the courses has further strengthened the operational readiness and safety architecture supporting NAF air operations nationwide.
