The outcome of the Valencia trial was presented at a dedicated user forum held in Valencia early in November 2006. More than one hundred participants from four continents attended and were able to meet stakeholders such as airlines, rotorcraft operators, civil aviation authorities, air navigation service providers, aircraft and rotorcraft manufacturers, and other aviation industry representatives.
