Bombardier Business Aircraft will hold the 23rd edition of its Safety Standdown from November 12 to 14 at the Omni Fort Worth Hotel in Fort Worth, Texas, the Canadian airframer announced today. For most of the main event's history in the U.S, it has been held in one city: Wichita, where Bombardier assembles Learjets and conducts flight testing.
This year's theme of the three-day seminar is “Elevate Your Standards,” with a focus on setting standards, determining how to strategically change standards in an organization to get the best possible results, and implanting them in an organization. “This message will be weaved into presentations and provide takeaways to improve and elevate safety within your organization,” Bombardier said. Planning for the 2019 seminar’s curriculum, hot topics and subject matter experts is under way, it added.
The free seminar is directed at pilots, maintenance and cabin crews, managers, aviation professionals, and students. As in past years, the general session and selected workshops will also be webcast.
