skeyes proudly took part in the YOUCA Action Day! 💪✈️ ✨ This year, we once again welcomed eight enthusiastic students who spent the day discovering what happens behind the scenes of Belgian #airtrafficcontrol. 💡 From learning about our airspace and visiting the training school’s tower simulator, to exploring our Navigation, Surveillance and Meteorology departments, and even getting a glimpse inside the control tower and CANAC2 (the air traffic control center). 🌍 The YOUCA vzw Action Day (Youth for Change and Action) gives young people the chance to work for a day and donate their wages to projects that empower youth worldwide. This year’s edition was once again a great opportunity to inspire the next generation and show them how #teamwork and #technology keep our skies safe every day. 🤝 Thank you to all students for their curiosity and positive energy, and to our colleagues who made this experience valuable! 🙌 #skeyes #YOUCAActionDay #YouthForChange #Aviation
