The rate of accident differs considerably from one region to another. We have as an objective that no region will have twice the world average. So we have to assist a certain number of countries that do not have the expertise or the resources to improve on their level of safety. In Africa, we are developing a very specific programme to support those States with the most significant safety concerns. We have also provided our Regional Offices in Dakar and Nairobi with additional resources so that, over the next three years, we can work with States concerned to improve their overall safety performance. http://www.vno.lt/en/news/aviation-news/detail.php?id=21711 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 17:33:15 +0300 http://www.vno.lt/en/news/aviation-news/detail.php?id=21711 Source: Mark Brown, Wired The future of mass transit may be a whole lot cooler than you think.
