Aviation connects the world; linking cultures, bringing people to business and products to markets. It supports 57 million jobs and $2.2 trillion of economic activity. By value, over 35 per cent of the goods traded internationally are transported by air. These figures describe an industry that is absolutely vital to global well-being. And we bear a heavy responsibility to ensure that we are making aviation as secure as it can be so that we may continue to perform our important role.
