    💡 Did you know that skeyes actively supports #sustainability by donating decommissioned IT equipment to schools and non-profit organisations?    The systems and software we use require significant computing power, meaning some equipment no longer meets our #operational standards. However, it’s still in excellent condition and perfectly suited for a second life. That’s why skeyes is proud to give this equipment a meaningful new purpose.    🎁 Here are some of the recent donations skeyes has made: - Onze-Lieve-Vrouwencollege, Antwerp: Around 20 laptops were donated to create a task class for children from families who cannot afford their own computers. With 13 nationalities represented, some devices are also being used to help students improve their language skills.    - De l’autre côté de l’Ecole, Auderghem: Another 20 laptops were donated, opening new opportunities for students to develop essential IT skills. The laptops were handed over during a visit to skeyes, where students toured our control tower and the DiTo (Digital Tower Development Centre).    - Sint-Jans Berchmanscollege, Antwerp: Laptops and additional screens were donated to support students in their schoolwork.    - RADIO REFLEX MECHELEN: A local community radio station received laptops and desktop devices. These are being repurposed to maintain their broadcasting equipment and ensure their operations continue smoothly.    Together, we’re combining sustainability with meaningful community support! 🌍    #GivingBack #DigitalInclusion #AirTrafficControl #ATCO #Donation #IT #skeyes

    🎉 5 Years of Civil-Military Cooperation at Steenokkerzeel 🎉     Today, we celebrate the fifth anniversary of civil and military air navigation services working side by side at the skeyes site in Steenokkerzeel. Since the ATCC's move from Semmerzake in 2019, this partnership has brought significant benefits, including more efficient, safe, and sustainable airspace use.     Key milestones:  ✅ A joint supervisor suite enabling faster civil-military coordination (June 2020).  ✅ The launch of the Airspace Management Cell (AMC) for improved flexibility and safety (September 2020).  ✅ Unified aeronautical information with Belgium’s single NOTAM Office (June 2024).  ✅ A roadmap for safe integration of wind energy into airspace (June 2024).     By 2030, skeyes and ATCC aim for full integration, with shared controllers, systems, and operations. Together, we’re shaping the future of Belgian airspace! ✈️💙    Discover all the details in our press release: https://lnkd.in/eb8J4-Mn    #CIV #MIL #Cooperation #AirTrafficControl #AviationInnovation #skeyes
