JHSAT Status Tenets of the CAST process Data Analysis Engaging with the international community Interim safety recommendations
CAST JSAT Basic Tenets: Data Driven Stakeholder’s develop consensus solutions Actions can be measured Each imbedded in the IHST JHSAT process Process attributes adapted to helicopters: standard problem statements scoring criteria Recommendation categorization
Data Analysis: The JHSAT team is currently processing 190 accidents The accident data has been downloaded from the NTSB (~4000 files) For each accident the JHSAT performs the following: reconstruct the sequence of events identify what went wrong and why it went wrong assign an appropriate problem statement identify appropriate corrective action(s) score findings based on validity, importance, ability and usage The team has currently completed 161 of 195 accidents

Data Analysis: To date the accidents analyzed have covered a wide spectrum of helicopter types and operations. We expect to be able to offer the IHST and JHSIT a comprehensive set of safety recommendations based on the analyses. The data has not been formally ranked by the JHSAT yet. This will be accomplished as a final step prior to review with experts in the affected recommendation areas.
Engaging with the international community The preceding slide shows worldwide accident trends for the last 26 years. The criticality of working with the international community to reduce worldwide rates is readily apparent since the US accounts for only 35 to 40% of accidents on an annual basis. Any entity that possess large helicopter accident datasets that could be processed by the JHSAT method should be considered. Working with EASA and TC. Working JHSAT formation in Australia (Mar meeting), Working May/June meeting in Sao Paulo for SA. India contacts established. China? CIS?
Engaging with the international community A structured approach needs to be used to manage the analytical and implementation work sponsored by the IHST. Key attributes: All recommendations will be data driven Regional ownership - Data is owned and analyzed by those most familiar with it. Safety recommendations will be implemented by teams most familiar with local needs. JHSAT and JHSIT lead teams will be responsible for training/coaching regional teams, measuring the results of the safety recommendations and implementation effectiveness.

JHSIT Lead GroupImplementingRegional Solutions JHSIT will also have international partner management responsibilities: custom tailored regional solutions coordinated with JHSAT coordinated with IHST
Potential Barriers for JHSAT function: Variation in dataset quality, definitions, etc, around the world may complicate use of standardized JHSAT approach. Military involvement may not be available.Lack of fleet hours may complicate ability to measure and/or normalize results. Regional teams may be difficult to staff with sufficient level of expertise representing manufacturers, operators and regulatory interests. Regional teams may have difficulty working to IHST/JHSAT timing and milestonesSome of these issues may also apply to the JHSIT function

Interim safety recommendations The JHSAT has developed recommendations from a series of existing helicopter safety reports. (listed on the next slide) These recommendations are being submitted to the IHST at this meeting so that the JHSIT will have several well founded general recommendations to work with. This should allow for JHSIT implementation strategizing and targeting who should be on the team. The JHSAT plan to issue its full set of analytical results by early 2Q07.
JHSAT reviewed the following reports: NASA - U.S. Civil Rotorcraft Accidents, 1963 Through 1997 NASA - Analysis of US Civil Rotorcraft Accidents from 1990 to 1996 and Implications for a Safety Program NASA - ASRS Rotorcraft Incident Study - Draft Data Summary Aviation Safety Reporting System NASA - Helicopter Accident Analysis Team AMPA - A Safety Review and Risk Assessment in Air Medical Transport CRS - Report for Congress - Military Aviation Safety OGP - Safety Performance of Helicopter Operations in the Oil and Gas Industry - 2000 Data TSB Canada - Lessons Learned from TSB Investigation of Helicopter Accidents (1994 - 2003) Bell Textron - History of Helicopter Safety
JHSAT Observations Based on the teams review of year 2000 accident data: Develop strategy to promote Safety Management Systems approach in helicopter community Helicopter community should align with international trends in adopting Safety Management Systems Petition the NTSB to: fully investigate helicopter accidents develop training curricula to show how accident data can be used to improve helicopter safety
Review of existing Safety Reports Proximity detection equipment for helicopters Wire detection systems (EM, radar) Radio altimeters (confined to what is directly below the helicopter within direct line of sight of the sensor) Hover systems employing RADALT, doppler or other means to measure lateral drift
Review of existing Safety Reports Develop and require real-time performance monitoring Adopt new technologies to provide crash info to accident investigators New, cost effective products available, adapt to specific ops Keep over burdensome government requirements out.
Review of existing Safety Reports Web Site - Safety/Accident awareness – data & feedback dissemination Keep fresh safety info on an easily accessed web site Keep current accident/incident statistics Leverage NASA safecopter site
Review of existing Safety Reports Aeronautical decision making training JHSIT develop a strategy to target and apply ADM training across the operational community. Include training using simulators and fixed base training devices
