European Aviation Safety 2014-2017

The worldwide rate of fatal accidents for scheduled passenger and cargo flights continued to decrease in 2012, providing a steady improvement in aviation safety. According to the EASA Annual Safety Review 2012 the rate of fatal accidents in EASA MS is comparable with and slightly lower than North America. Even though this is a great achievement, there is no room for complacency: air traffic is expected to almost double by 20301 and the fact that the average annual rate of fatal accidents in scheduled passenger operations2 in the European Union has remained more or less stable for the past years, makes new approaches necessary to complement the existing and successful safety measures in order to drive further safety improvements in aviation.

It is abundantly clear that a system which helps guide complex, three-dimensional traffic in congested airspace will be needed soon. Legacy ATC systems are not able to support the urban transport mode. Legislators and regulators are expecting the industry to supply solutions. Skyroads is the first company world-wide to make a comprehensive proposal. Fundamental considerations for this solution are found in our previous White Paper “Air Traffic Control for Urban Air Mobility”. The operational tasks to be solved are widely acknowledged within the current deliberations by the industry and the rulemaking bodies.
