ATR Hosts the ERA Air Safety Group Meeting
ERA Air Safety Group brings together the European regional airlines, manufacturers and safety professionals to discuss and share the latest aviation safety developments, regulation updates and concerns specific to Europe.

The principal focus and objective of the group is to improve the safety of our members operations and to provide an environment for members to share and discuss their own safety experiences as well as learn about developments and trends in safety related issues,” explains Chris Mason, ERA Manager policy & technical.
