ASC has announced an expansion of its aviation recording solutions to three airports in
Argentina. The project, to be completed in 2008, followed ASC's recent registration by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). ASC will install its primary communications recording system, MARATHON EVOLUTION, for the Administracion Aeronautica
Argentina in an arrangement tendered by the ICAO for the airports in
Cordoba, Buenos Aires-Ezeiza and Buenos Aires-CIPE (backup for Ezeiza). The airports will be equipped with approximately 1,000 recording channels in all, and the system will provide 1-to-1 redundancy. This capability will ensure complete backup during emergency situations and facilitate reconstruction and analysis of all occurrences. Airports must record and archive all air traffic communications and precisely reproduce the temporal flow of all events. The ICAO, through its Technical Cooperation Program, evaluated ASC's solutions for aviation security and use by airports in national and international operations, and found them to be in compliance with its Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs).
