As air traffic continues to grow in Europe, from both a transport and leisure perspective, European citizens need to be assured that the aircraft that cross our skies are designed, built, operated and maintained to the highest safety standards.

This has become all the more important as the number of commercial, corporate and even private aircraft, and their intensive use, have witnessed a dramatic increase to cope with demand.

The creation of the European Aviation Safety Agency contributes to establish and maintain a high, uniform level of civil aviation safety in Europe.

This system will also ensure a single European market for industry and air operators without competitive disruption. The agency additionally contributes to the Community objective of reducing the environmental impact of aviation through the definition and application of technical requirements that are in line with international standards.
