Join us for the 2006 "Communicating for Safety" conference this September in Dallas. The conference will feature panels on pilot and controller training, recent accident investigations, human factors study results, NASA ASRS updates, dispatcher responsiblities, flight planning and special-use airspace considerations and much, much more.
Speakers will include industry experts, line pilots, working controllers as well as general aviation pilots and dispatchers. IATA will provide a briefing on aviation language and internation training programs. There will something for everyone!

This year we are very pleased have AOPA give presentations on general aviation security issues along with the Department of Homeland Security providing an intel briefing on "The New Faces of Terrorism".

If you're involved in aviation should make plans to attend. Whether you're a student pilot just starting out or you have a lunar landing under your belt you will enjoy CFS. Controllers from the biggest hubs to the quietest little landing strips will be there to answer any questions you might have.

Your registration fee includes admission to both days of the conference as well as the complimentary reception the evening before the conference begins. We've got some other events lined up to make your attendance memorable.
