Respected Experts, Latest Information to Be Featured
The European Business Aviation
Association (EBAA) and National Business Aviation Association
(NBAA) indicate that planning was well underway for a highly
valuable European Safety Standdown - the third of its kind -
produced by Bombardier in partnership with EBAA and NBAA. As with
past years, this year's event will take place at the Crowne Plaza
Hotel in Geneva, Switzerland on May 11, 2009, in conjunction with
the European Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition
(EBACE2009).
"Our industry's commitment to safe operating practices is
reflected in the presenters and content we provide each year at the
European Safety Standdown, and this year's event will be no
exception," said EBAA President and CEO Brian Humphries, pointing
to several of the aviation safety experts included in the program
for this year's event, such as:
- Tony Kern, Convergent Performance
- Sean Roberts, National Test Pilot School
- Mark Rosekind, Alertness Solutions
- John Nance, author and aerospace analyst, ABC News
"Around the world, safety is the cornerstone of business
aviation and 'Job One' for the industry," said NBAA President and
CEO Ed Bolen. "Events like this one are an ideal way to further our
industry's culture of safety. NBAA looks forward to seeing everyone
in Geneva for our 3rd Annual European Safety Standdown."
The Safety Standdown focuses on reducing the risk of human
errors - the underlying cause of most accidents - by combining
skill-based training with knowledge-based training. The European
Safety Standdown provides operators with tools to improve risk
mitigation, department procedures and processes, and to establish
clear and distinct pathways for introspective analysis of
professionalism.
Workshops at this year's European Safety Standdown include crew
resource management, advanced aerodynamics for business aviation
and fatigue countermeasures.
