Africa: Experts Call for Urgent Action to Boost Aviation Safety

Regional governments have been urged to expedite efforts to establish a satellite air navigation based system to boost aviation safety and efficiency on the continent.

Experts say the states should increase support to the EGNOS-Africa Joint project, a pan-African entity and part of the Africa-European Union (EU) long-term strategic partnership to enhance safety in air transport.

According to aviation experts, the project is expected to benefit regional airports by enabling safer landings, increased efficiency, reliable services for passengers and better access to remote regions with less well equipped airports.

The experts are currently meeting in Rwanda to deliberate on how to expedite the project and make the continent's aviation more safe and competitive.
