The inaugural conference opening sessions were entitled ‘The present scene’, where Dr Rob Lee, from the Australian Bureau of Air Safety, spoke on ‘New ideas in air safety’; followed by sessions on the Australian regulatory framework, and ‘International comparisons’ from Captain Dan Maurino.
The conference looked at every facet of aviation safety, from human factors (John Lauber of the NTSB), to commercial safety considerations (Don Kendell); flying ops (both fixed-wing and rotary); ground crew /maintenance(John Alldis); airspace (Captain Buck Brooksbank); cabin safety; and airlines.
On day 2, the conference sessions addressed the question: ‘Where to from here?’ with sessions on disaster management, technological developments, training, and the role of TQM in aviation.
