Proud aviation heritage
History of Airservices Australia
Airservices was formed in July 1995 when the Civil Aviation Authority was split into two separate government bodies: Airservices Australia and the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA). Since that time, we have proudly served the aviation industry and community through times of enormous change. Today, we deliver our services from two major air traffic services centres in Melbourne and Brisbane, two terminal control units, 29 air traffic control towers, and aviation rescue fire fighting stations at 27 of the nation’s busiest airports.
