摘要: The United States sets the pace for aviation. When it comes to performance, we lead the way. This fourth edition of the Flight Plan is a report card of how we got there. Our safety record is unparalleled in the history of transportation. Weve achieved it by systematically identifying, analyzing and addressing each facet. The results are without issue. Travel aboard a commercial jet is so safe that the odds of an accident are described by a fraction of a decimal. Weve never been content to accept the status quo and were still focused on making it better. Weve trained our sights on the year 2025 19 years away. The demand for air travel could triple by that time, and the need to fly safely and on time will not change. But to reach that place, weve got to begin laying the foundation now. The Flight Plan is the roadmap that leads us there. Its especially important because even though our system remains safe, events like the Comair 5191 accident point to the need for continuous improvement. Indeed, before that crash, a record 2.7 billion passengers flew aboard commercial jets without an onboard fatality. Thats nine times the population of this country. Our commitment to continuously improve that track record is unwavering. / Supplementary Notes: See also report for 2006-2010, PB2006-104606. / Availability Note: Order this product from NTIS by: phone at 1-800-553-NTIS (U.S. customers); (703)605-6000 (other countries); fax at (703)605-6900; and email at orders@ntis.gov.
