Distinguished Colleagues, On behalf of the Civil Air Navigation Services Organisation (CANSO), it is our pleasure to invite you and your staff to represent your organisation at the CANSO Asia Pacific Conference, to be held on 4 – 6 May 2016. This year the event will be hosted by Airways New Zealand in Queenstown, New Zealand, with Lead Sponsor Aireon LLC. With the theme “Shaping Asia Pacific ATM – Global Vision, Regional Action”, this year’s conference will examine the global vision for the future of ATM, the challenges and opportunities in the region from the perspective of the ANSPs and their stakeholders as well as the actions that are essential to translate the vision into reality. As the world’s largest aviation market with one of the fastest growth rates, the region’s economic well-being is clearly dependent on its ability to ensure the safe and sustainable growth of air transport.
