1953: The Federal Administration of Air Navigation Services was founded.

1973: A go-slow by air traffic controllers seriously hindered air traffic.

1993: The Federal Administration of Air Navigation Services was corporatised and DFS Deutsche Flugsicherung GmbH was founded.

2000: DFS received the prestigious Eagle Award from the International Air Transport Association as the leading air navigation services organisation in the world.

2003: The year 2003 represents a double anniversary: 50 years of air navigation services in Germany, 10 years of DFS.
