ALEXANDRIA, Va. — Registration is open for the third annual Singapore Aviation Safety Seminar (SASS), to be held in Singapore at the Singapore Aviation Academy (SAA) March 28–30. Organized by Flight Safety Foundation and the academy, SASS provides a platform for sharing the latest challenges, issues, developments and initiatives to raise safety standards in the Asia Pacific region.

Catalin Radu, deputy director (Aviation Safety), Air Navigation Bureau, International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), is scheduled to deliver the keynote address on Tuesday, March 28. He will discuss ICAO’s agenda for safety. The overall theme for SASS 2017 is “Stepping up Safety: A Systematic Approach.” Daily topic threads connecting other world-class speakers include “Safety challenges and human factors issues” (Tuesday); “Organizational safety issues, recent safety lessons, tools and initiatives” (Wednesday); and “Latest technology relating to safety” (Thursday).
