The last visit was to Ecube, a space where specialists work on connecting aircraft owners and parts companies to maximise mutual value, globally directing aircraft storage and recycling while reusing parts, helping this way in more sustainable aviation. Civil Aviation Authority showcased its commitment to a greener future in aviation by visiting Ecube.
According to CAA, the purpose of the worth of attention visit was to demonstrate the commitment to the latest developing technologies and consumer needs in the aviation sector in Wales.
Chair of the UK Civil Aviation Authority, Stephen Hillier, expressed his enthusiasm about the role of Wales in the aerospace industry:
“The UK’s aerospace industry is always evolving, and the industry in Wales plays an integral role in this evolution. As the regulator, we must keep pace with the rapidly changing technologies and needs of consumers to support our mission of protecting people and enabling aerospace. Our outreach work in Wales and across the UK is more important than ever, and we continue to engage with all stakeholders across the country to make aviation safer, greener, and better for passengers and the public, both home and abroad.”
