ESPN-R on LinkedIn: Stay Connected, Stay Informed
The European Safety Promotion Network – Rotorcraft (ESPN-R) manages three dedicated LinkedIn groups. These groups serve as a dynamic complement to the articles published in the EASA Rotorcraft Community, offering timely updates and fostering real-time engagement.
Both the LinkedIn posts and Community articles are integral to the collaborative efforts of EASA, national authorities, and the rotorcraft industry to promote and enhance rotorcraft and VTOL safety across Europe — and beyond.
Join the ESPN-R LinkedIn Groups today!
By joining, you can:
- Stay up to date with the latest safety information
- Share relevant materials and insights

The exchanges on LinkedIn are more often dynamic and informal than those in the Community—making it a great place to experience “safety promotion in action”.
