The ICAO Regional Aviation Safety Group – Pan America (RASG-PA) and the Asociación de Transporte Aéreo de Colombia (ATAC) in partnership with the Latin America and Caribbean Air Transport Association - ALTA, will be sponsoring the 3rd Aviation Safety Summit focused entirely on the Pan American region.
The Summit will be held on June 19-21, 2012, in Bogota, Colombia, at the Convention Center El Cubo, located on Carrera 30, one of Bogota's main thoroughfares. International and regional safety leaders will be in attendance. All Pan American States and aviation related organizations and individuals are encouraged to attend this important Safety Summit.
As part of the summit activities, a Safety Conference showcasing top level experts and executives from ICAO, ANAC, FAA, ALTA, IATA, IFALPA, AIRBUS, BOEING, EMBRAER, and the most important Airlines in the Latin America and the Caribbean region, as well as civil aviation authorities, will be featured. The Summit will not only provide an overview of the region’s safety statistics and other current RASG-PA initiatives to enhance flight safety, but also specific strategies to address the top aviation safety risk areas in the region. Additional summit activities include:
• Training, panel discussions and seminars focused on mitigation strategies for the top data-driven risk areas in the region.
• Opportunity to network and exchange views with the leaders from the aviation industry in these key strategic areas.
States and Industry working together have made significant strides towards improving aviation in the Pan American region. To continue this positive trend towards a mutual collaboration of safety initiatives, participation is open to and strongly encouraged of all operators (commercial, cargo, and corporate), pilot groups, regulators (both state and industry), airport personnel, ATC representatives and any other companies or individuals whose goal is a safer aviation industry.
