Abstract
The aviation sector has been leading the way in implementing new technologies and is currently adopting blockchain technology. Blockchain is a revolutionary technology that enables secure data encryption and storage through a distributed ledger system. This system ensures that multiple nodes can access the data hashes at any time. Any tampering or modifications result in a new hash, making it easy to verify the authenticity of data files and track the node where the changes occurred. The use of blockchain technology holds great promise for digital data security, particularly for digital transactions involving information or money. Like other industries that exchange information between multiple stakeholders, the aviation industry has found many applications for blockchain technology. Although the industry is progressing in adopting this technology, there is still a long way to go. This paper examines the possible application and adaptation the blockchain technology to air traffic management from a safety and efficiency perspective.Keywords
