Today, the AAIB's thoughts are with all of those affected by air accidents as we commemorate ICAO's International Day Commemorating Air Crash Victims and their Families. This is a day of reflection within our industry, as we work towards making aviation safer and preventing accidents that can result in such tragedy.
Air Crash Victims Day is also an opportunity to advance our understanding of best practice when providing support to people who have lost loved ones. Family liaison is integral to the work of the AAIB and is something that has to be handled with great sensitivity. The AAIB is participating in an ICAO-led workshop in Milan today to learn more about providing assistance to air accident victims and their families.
As we remember those lives lost to air accidents, we redouble our efforts to help the industry to learn from these tragedies and make flying safer.
