Vietnam's Aviation Industry in the 4.0 Revolution

Industrial Revolution 4.0 - Opportunities and Challenges for the Aviation Industry

The Fourth Industrial Revolution has brought and will continue to bring new life to the global civil aviation industry by providing passengers with exciting experiences on flights. Vietnam is no exception. According to assessments, Vietnam will soon become one of the world's leading aviation markets.

Ts. Trần Quang Châu, Chủ tịch Hội Khoa học và Công Nghệ Hàng không Việt Nam phát biểu tại Hội thảo — Dr. Tran Quang Chau, President of the Vietnam Aviation Science and Technology Association, delivered a speech at the conference.

At the conference, experts argued that the Fourth Industrial Revolution in the aviation sector brings many favorable opportunities, but also presents many challenges, such as: the workforce must be extensively and thoroughly trained in technology; the management team must be true experts in many systems, both on the ground and on board aircraft. Investing early and promptly in advanced infrastructure and ensuring efficient operation to take advantage of the many benefits of the Fourth Industrial Revolution will be a significant challenge.

The aviation industry, as well as aviation corporations and conglomerates, need to strengthen training and education on Industry 4.0 systems for their management team and specialized flight operations workforce.
The civil aviation industry needs a research and development agency (especially for applied research) in order to achieve a certain degree of autonomy in this field.
Written government authorization is needed to regulate the onboard navigation system based on flight characteristics, ensuring greater legal validity. This would provide a basis for the frequency management/protection agencies of the Ministry of Information and Communications and the Ministry of Public Security to protect GPS frequencies and ensure GPS signal security in Vietnamese airspace.
