FAA, Asia-Pacific Partners to Host Annual Industry Day

Each year the FAA’s Aircraft Certification Service (AIR) and the Civil Aviation Authorities in the Asia Pacific Region (APAC) gather to discuss the status of bilateral relationships with the United States, regulatory agendas and obstacles facing both industry and regulators.

Following the FAA-APAC meetings, the authorities host industry representatives to tackle issues facing the aviation community. The theme of this year’s “Industry Day” will be issues related to global manufacturing, streamlining the validation process for design approvals and how CAA-industry collaboration can improve.

Attending Industry Day is a great opportunity to engage representatives from the FAA as well as authorities from 15 Asia-Pacific nations while connecting with industry counterparts from around the world.

Industry Day will take place on March 30 in Long Beach, California. Member companies interested in participating should contact Regulatory Affairs Director Ryan M. Poteet (ryan.poteet@arsa.org; 703.739.9543 Ext. 100) for more information.
