The meeting focused particularly on the key factors that can help to ensure good flight safety levels, including legal regulation of general aviation flight safety, timely identification and resolution of causes for incidents involving general aviation, quality of pilots’ training, equipment of aircraft with automatic dependent surveillance systems, certification of aircraft, and ensuring security at the landing sites used by general aviation aircraft.

Powers and responsibilities of the agencies and actors involved in general aviation were also discussed.

The meeting’s participants also heard a report from the Ministry of Industry and Trade on projects for aviation technology development and prospects for implementing the small-scale aviation sub-programme of the 2013–2025 Aviation Industry Development state programme.
