New Delhi: The aviation sector is likely to see higher safety norms by next year. The government is in the process of signing safety agreement with the US that would enable certification of civil aeronautical products and technical cooperation between the two countries. “We are working in right earnest to get the Bilateral Aviation Safety Agreement concluded by 2010,” civil aviation secretary M Madhavan Nambiar said at the ongoing Indo-US Economic Summit on Wednesday. As the name suggests, the agreement will set norms for the safety procedures to be followed by the aviation industry. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation, the FAA and Hindustan Aeronautics are finalising the agreement.
