“Congratulations to ARSA members and the entire aviation industry for achieving a stellar safety record. Your commitment and hard work have made flying the safest way to travel.
“Improved safety has coincided with increased use of contract maintenance by air carriers. The outstanding performance record is no accident; it’s the result of an effective – and ever improving – network of industry controls in concert with existing regulations.
