SkyTrac... Set Up As Summit Sponsor (Event)


[SatNews] SkyTrac Systems is sponsoring the 2012 CHC Safety and Quality Summit from March 26th to the 28th in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

SkyTrac recognizes the importance of contributing to an event that promotes safety in aviation, and is proud to be involved. Judy Meier, Senior Manager of Sales, Sales Account Manager - International, will be attending the event. This year’s summit theme is “Improving Safety Culture through Talent, Training & Trust”. The Summit’s dinner speaker will be Capt. Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger, an airline transport pilot, safety expert, and accident investigator who gained fame when he successfully ditched a US Airways flight in the Hudson River near Manhattan, New York City in 2009, saving the lives of all 155 people on the aircraft. SkyTrac’s trusted systems for flight following and SATCOM boost situational awareness and provide improved air-to-ground communication and aircraft tracking, which greatly enhances safety. These benefits, amongst many others, are rapidly proving their worth and, in many cases, becoming mandatory. Kathleen Wallace, President and CEO at SkyTrac, said, “We are committed to improving the safety of flight operations and pleased to be sponsoring this well respected event.”
