Recruit & retain the next generation

It is expected that the global aviation community will face a shortage of skilled aviation professionals in the near future. AviAssist is committed to initiatives to recruit and maintain future aviation professionals. Watch the latest episode of the Focus Sessions about the Next Generation Aviation Professionals (NGAP).

Incident & accident reports

The accident investigation process is one of our most important learning tools when building global safety standards. But to learn from an accident, we need reports that are complete, accessible and timely. AviAssist likes to celebrate successes, in this case African countries that publish incident and accident investigation reports. Have you got a report to share? Let us know and we’ll let the world learn from your safety leadership!

An example of best practices in Africa

Precision Air Flight 494 (PW494) was a scheduled domestic passenger flight within Tanzania, from Julius Nyerere International Airport to Bukoba Airport via Mwanza Airport. On 6 November 2022, the ATR 42–500 plane crashed in Lake Victoria while attempting to land at Bukoba during bad weather and low visibility conditions. Nineteen people were killed, including both pilots who drowned before rescue workers could reach them.
