Aviation chief warns on safety
The Australian, Australia 
article-tools –> Cameron Stewart and Steve Creedy | October 21, 2008. module-subheader –> AUSTRALIA must not compromise on air safety standards despite the current shortage of maintenance engineers, pilots and air traffic controllers, the president of the world’s peak aviation body has warned. International Civil Aviation Organisation president Roberto Kobeh Gonzalez said an acute shortage of aviation professionals was a worldwide problem and that Australia was not immune. "But it is important that safety standards are not compromised as a result," he told The Australian. "This is a global problem, not a national problem. The main concern is (a shortage of) pilots, maintenance mechanics and (air traffic) controllers and it will become a bigger problem if we do not take action globally. "
Mr Kobeh left Australia yesterday after a four-day visit during which he met aviation authorities, including the Civil Aviation Safety Authority and Transport Minister Anthony Albanese.

Statistics now affirm what has long been suspected: A significant rise in railway revenues compared to last year, for the same period that saw airline load factors declining drastically. A comparative analysis for April-August 2007 and 2008 show a dip in air passenger traffic and a concurrent rise in railway passenger traffic, most keenly observed in the number of Second AC and Third AC. Airline officials admit the tilt too – barring the corporate traveller who will prefer to not travel at all, a large number of fliers is now back in the trains.
