Lesson
The project is unique among ADB interventions in the Pacific. It involved setting up a regional organization from scratch, using a regional loan guaranteed by four Pacific Aviation Safety Office (PASO) members. While the concept was innovative, the first lesson is that a regional project can raise a variety of new issues. Inception was delayed by lengthy procedures for parliamentary approval of two of the guarantees. As of 2011, there is a risk that the organization could eventually fail unless a secure funding basis can be established in the near future.

Lesson
Institutional lessons arise from the need for cooperation on the part of governments, airlines, and international agencies in reforming and harmonizing the regulatory and legislative environment. ICAO has already recognized PASO as a legitimate international organization and will exercise quality control through the regular Universal Safety Oversight Audit Program and Universal Security Audit Program in each country. Governments need to ensure continuing cooperation between aviation ministries and other ministries responsible for drafting and enacting legislation and for providing finance.

Lesson
The concept of regional cooperation in technically demanding sectors is sound. The project concept of developing the coordinated provision of technical services to small and poorly resourced states has been proven. The project has helped develop similar regional activities in Asia and Africa by demonstrating feasibility to the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and other international organizations.
