eEuropesan Strsategici Safety Initiative

ESSI is an aviation safety partnership between the European Aviation Safety Agency, other aviation authorities and the industry. Its aim is to further enhance aviation safety for citizens in Europe and worldwide. Analysis of data, coordination with other safety initiatives and implementation of cost effective action plans are carried out to achieve this goal. The initiative has three components: the European Commercial Aviation Safety Team (ECAST), the European Helicopter Safety Team (EHEST), and the European General Aviation Safety Team (EGAST).
