Safety

If one examines the safety of the different transport modes, he will find that upon statistics, aviation is the safest way to travel. Flying is so unusual for human that the fear of crashing made us super-sensitive for the safety of flying. The redundant computers, actuators, systems, alarm devices and the more and more reliable engines contribute to this safety on behalf of the technology.

To ensure that aviation safety remains at current high standards or even improves regardless of air transport growth, the sacrificial work of operators, pilots, controllers and other actors is needed as well.
