Panel discussion

____________________
While the aviation industry has produced the safest record of any form of transportation and, indeed, almost any activity in life, the visibility and subsequent scrutiny following an incident or accident are unrelenting. In addition, labor shortages, supplier QA/QC issues, and regulatory scrutiny are posing huge challenges to meeting the burgeoning demand for air travel, and could hamper innovation, including for Advanced Air Mobility.
Hear from a most distinguished panel of past safety officials on the most pressing issues facing regulators and the industry today.
