On December 16 and 17, 202010, officials of the Ministry of Tourism and Civil Aviation and the Belize Airports Authority (BAA) made their way to the Belize Yacht Club, San Pedro to take part in the 164th Board of Directors Ordinary Meeting of the Central American Corporation for Air Navigation Services (COCESNA).
COCESNA has the exclusive rights to provide air traffic services, aeronautical telecommunications and radio navigation aids for international civil aviation in the territories of member states. Those are primarily for flights above 20,000 feet. The member states are Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua.
COCESNA also contributes in Flight Safety Oversight and provides training at its aeronautical institution for personnel of its Member States. The Chief Executive Officer in the Ministry of Civil Aviation and Director of Civil Aviation are the Belize representatives on the corporation’s Board of Directors- a board for which Belize now holds the presidency.
On Thursday, December 16, officials of the Ministry of Civil Aviation, Belize Airports Authority and COCESNA gathered at the San Pedro Airstrip to break ground on a 3.1 million dollar rehabilitation project. The San Pedro Airstrip is the second busiest in the country, second only to the Phillip Goldson International Airport. While it has come a long way from the hand chopped bushy surface it once was, the airstrip needs more input for the service it puts out.
After a very successful meeting, we can expect to see the COCESNA delegation next year at the Belize Yacht Club, San Pedro, which was named its’ annual conference location.
