LOSS OF CONTROL STATUS REPORT OST 05-3, 20TH September 2005 Presented by Maria Algar Ruiz (CJAA, Technical Assistant to Operations Director) LoC Ad Hoc WG
SUMMARY Project Presentation/Analysis methods Accidents Groups Classification Preliminary Conclusions Actions Plan list LoC Ad Hoc WG
PROJECT PRESENTATION/ANALYSIS METHODS • Deep study of fatal accidents (1988-2004) and many incidents, potential accidents due to loss of control.Involving JAA Operators. • Group classification based on similar scenarios and look for similar events into the available data base (UK CAA MORS database) • Preliminary actions plan list coming from this study to mitigate the perceived risks. • Classification of these actions plan list into the responsible parties. LoC Ad Hoc WG
FATAL ACCIDENTS LIST (1988-2004) LoC Ad Hoc WG
ACCIDENTS GROUP CLASSIFICATION • Loss of control following lightning strike and/or total loss of electrical power • Loss of control following an instrument failure or malfunction (attitude/air speed indicator) • Loss of control due to cargo loading errors • Loss of control following air intake icing on turboprop aircraft engines • Loss of control due to spatial disorientation (resulting in spiral dives) • Loss of control due to the use in-flight of reverse beta range • Others, not included in any of the above categories LoC Ad Hoc WG
PRELIMINARY CONCLUSIONS (I) • Aircraft airworthiness protection against lightening strike • Pilot training for recovery from total loss of electrical power • AFM procedures including unreliable airspeed indications • Pilot training requirements for scenarios in which airspeed indications are unreliable. Is it possible to simulate unreliable airspeed indication? • Need to install an additional standby attitude indicator (artificial horizon) for aircraft with MTOM less than 5,700 kg (EQSG)? • Quality audit on the loading instruction given to the cargo dispatchers (SWSG) LoC Ad Hoc WG
PRELIMINARY CONCLUSIONS (II) • Is JAR-OPS 1 robust enough to avoid loading related accidents(JAR-OPS 1.205 ‘Competences of Operations Personnel’)? • AMM recommendation for parking in icing conditions? • The ‘auto-relight’ modification. Human factors’ aspect? • SIC (CJAA Operations Division Safety Information Communications) for operators to recommend the NOTAC issued to aircrew to inspect the air intakes(coordination with EASA needed) • Training awareness programme focussed on pilots with an Eastern Europe/Russian training background • Installation of an aural ‘bank angle’ warning. LoC Ad Hoc WG
PRELIMINARY CONCLUSIONS (III) • To issue an recommendation for an OD (Operational Directive) to highlight to the operators that it is not permitted to use the beta-range in-flight on turboprop aircraft. • New aircraft should be fitted with a device to prevent the use of beta range in-flight • Possible lack of training and/or awareness of the implications of allowing approach speed to fall below Vmcl on turbo-prop aircraft (especially during single-engine approaches, for example with an engine out). • Certification requirements that only requires an engine-out go-around to be performed from the approach configuration. What about one-engine out, go-around from landing configuration case? LoC Ad Hoc WG
