The aviation and aerospace industries are facing challenges that could never have been foreseen in the past. In the wake of recent economic and global events, markets were gaining strength but also suffered from surging fuel costs that threatened even the efficient low cost carrier sector. There have been significant changes in the airline industry in Europe, North America and Asia and the emergence of new models in the travel distribution systems. Commercial air service’s availability in densely populated areas is continuing to increase as HUB airports approach capacity and discount carriers look for opportunities to reduce costs.
