EDITIORIAL NOTES Yet again we have reached the time of retrospections and resolutions. In a festive mood, we are celebrating our 16th anniversary. We are bidding adieu to the year 2014 and opening up arms for the New Year 2015.On this remarkable day, we have published 'CAAN Souvenir 2014' for sharing of knowledge, ideas and opinions among all. In retrospection of the turbulence in our aviation sector over the past, we must acknowledge that the future is fluid unlike the frozen past. It flows as per our shifting and changing daily decisions and the present events.It can be shaped up in accordance to our determination. Sometimes the difference between a happy successful outcome and a dismal failure is only a slight shift in percep- tion. Considering this fact, we have realized that past evidences have renewed the calls for stricter scrutiny and commitment to address the situation. Moving ahead with our unfaltering efforts, we are sure to smoothen up our journey to safer aviation. Resolution is the first step to achievement. We know that opportunities originate from challenges. We thus resolve to transform all the challenges into opportune events and emerge stronger and safer in the days to come. We are hopeful that the year ahead will not only meet our expectations, but surpass them. Finally, I, together with the Publication Committee, would like to express sincere gratitude to the writers and contributors as well as everybody providing their valuable suggestion and support to this souvenir. Wish you all a very happy and prosperous new year!!! Patron (Director General) Coordinator Mr. Debendra K.C. ( Dy.
