The aviation industry is in the midst of a new information age. By 2030, the number of active air transport and business aircraft is expected to grow to nearly 85,000 – with 80 percent of those equipped with new information-enabled systems. Beyond the aircraft, cutting-edge innovations are creating faster and more secure air and ground networks and more streamlined airline and airport operations. These developments are making a seamless, secure and integrated aviation ecosphere a reality.
