As innovation in the aerospace industry accelerates, the UK Civil Aviation Authority will be at the Farnborough International Airshow to engage with industry on the safe integration of new technologies, airspace modernisation and the sustainable future growth of the sector, while maintaining high safety standards.

As the UK’s aerospace regulator, the Civil Aviation Authority aims to create conditions for new technologies, businesses and operations to develop safely and efficiently.

Throughout the week, the regulator will have experts available on its stand to discuss a range of topics, with members of the Civil Aviation Authority board available on 22 July to engage directly with industry. This will include Chair, Sir Stephen Hillier and Group Director Safety & Airspace Regulation, Giancarlo Buono.
