Change of Control in Son Bonet: Mallorca Gets a New Air Traffic Control Center — A Reality Check

Answer

How safe is a new air traffic control center in Mallorca if systems fail?

Modern systems improve reliability, but they also create new digital risks. A facility like this needs strong cyber defence, backup systems and a clear emergency plan, including redundancy outside the island group if possible. Safety depends on more than the building itself; it also depends on how failures are handled.
