Skyway - Autumn/Winter 2020

The impact of COVID-19
Skyway issue 73
Benjamin Smith

Our latest Skyway magazine is now out. This time we look at the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the aviation sector and what to do from here.

In this 73rd issue, we hear from top brass about how they foresee the recovery of the aviation sector and what kind of future that is - doom and gloom or an opportunity to rebuild, reinvent and reimagine.

"The pandemic has devastated our industry and the people who work in it; trying to ride it out is not an option. In order to survive, we need to take decisive and radical steps to mitigate the immediate impacts while putting in place the building blocks for a more robust and adaptable post-COVID aviation system."

Eamonn Brennan Director General EUROCONTROL
