Robinson to host USHST safety conference

Robinson Helicopter Company Press Release | July 31, 2019

Estimated reading time 1 minute, 1 seconds.

On Aug. 13 to 16, Robinson Helicopter Company will host the U.S. Helicopter Safety Team’s (USHST’s) annual meeting at its Torrance, California, factory. The meeting follows the USHST’s recent call to action to the helicopter community to address rising accident rates.

The safety conference kicks off with a Steering Committee meeting on Tuesday, followed by two days of USHST general meetings and presentations. Due to the excellent response, both meetings are closed to additional participation. The conference concludes on Friday, Aug. 16 with a safety workshop presented by the Helicopter Safety Alliance.

The annual focus on safety continues to gather industry support, with this year’s USHST meeting set to bring together over 100 individuals from across the industry including representatives from the FAA, Airbus, Bell, Sikorsky, UAVOS, EMS, police, OEMs, and other operators.

Robinson is pleased to be this year’s host and hopes the expanded safety conference will strengthen efforts throughout the industry to prioritize safety.
