Raymond Benjamin Secretary General of the International Civil Aviation Organization Message on World Statistics Day @ ICAO
IMPORTANCE OF STATISTICS IN AVIATION
For over 65 years ICAO has been producing global civil aviation databases and statistics from data received from its Member States and the civil aviation community. These statistical products provide airlines, airports, air navigation services providers, regulators and other stakeholders with the information required to maintain high level standards with respect to safety and security, and allows for the monitoring and benchmarking of sustainability indicators.
PLANNING FOR SUSTAINABLE GROWTH
In civil aviation, as in most industries, statistics are essential for learning from past experiences, managing present operations and planning sustainable growth.
