Overview ofJAA Safety Strategy InitiativeNARAST meeting, Beijing, 23-25 Sep 2003P.H. (Dick) de Saint-Aulaire JSSI Coordinator JAA Regulation Division
CONTENTS • JAA overall objective • JSSI framework • JSSI update on results • Conclusion • Perspective • List of Abbreviations
JAA OVERALL OBJECTIVE The Joint Aviation Authorities aim at continuous improvement of their effective safety system leading to further reduction of the annual number of accidents and fatalities irrespective of the growth of air traffic
JSSI FRAMEWORK PURPOSE Support the JAA’s aim for safety by providing a focused Safety Agenda (Regulations, Research, training aids...) with deliverables SCOPE Concentrate on Large Transport Aeroplanes operated in Commercial Air Transportation
JSSI FRAMEWORK KEY ELEMENTS • Partnership with Authorities and Interested Parties • Cooperation with other organisations • Public Perception: open communication • Implementation
JSSI FRAMEWORK ORGANIZATION FAA JAA EUROCONTROL CAST JSSI Steering Group RS Steering Committee Runway Safety WG Action Plan Team CFIT, ALA, LOC Future Aviation Safety Team Occurrence Data Analysis Specs WG Runway Safety Task Force Occupant Safety & Survivability WG Design Related WG
JSSI FRAMEWORK JAA CONSULTATIONPROCESS Implementation Action Plans through member states’ NAA JAA Committee Regulations Licensing JAA Sectorial Teams Maintenance Certification Operations JSSI Steering Group JSSI working groups
JSSI FRAMEWORK APPROACH Two complementary approaches are being used to develop the JSSI focused agenda: • Historic approach, FAA/CAST leading • Predictive approach, JAA/JSSI leading
JSSI FRAMEWORK HISTORIC APPROACH • Identify focus areas • Prioritise focus areas: fatalities • Analyse representative accidents sample set to recommend interventions
JSSI FRAMEWORK – HISTORIC APPROACH FOCUS AREAS • Controlled Flight Into Terrain*) • Approach and Landing*) • Loss of Control*) • Design related • Weather*) • Occupant Safety and Survivability • Runway Safety*) *) common with CAST
JSSI FRAMEWORK PREDICTIVE APPROACH • Why? • Future may not be a direct extrapolation of the past: changes. • Many accidents are related to situations not envisaged by the assumptions made when designing • Focused Methodology • From Changes to Hazards (inherent and due to interactions) to Interventions. • Future Aviation Safety Team (FAST)
JSSI update CFIT/ALA/LoC • CFIT 8 Action Plans agreed • ALA 5 Action Plans agreed (mostly Ops related) • LoC5 Action Plans agreed 1 Action Plan on hold 4 Action Plans drafted (more design related, particularly Avionics) All APs are based on those from CAST and adapted to European needs/context
JSSI update CFIT Action Plans AGREED • TAWS implementation • ATC CFIT training • Precision-like approach implementation • Flight Crew training in CFIT prevention • Crew Resources Management training • Standard Operating Procedures • Minimum Safe Altitude Warning • Flight Data Monitoring
JSSI update ALA Action Plans AGREED • Flight Crew Training • Flight Deck Equipment Upgrade/ Installation • Maintenance Procedures • Aircraft Design • Approach and Landing Safety Culture
JSSI update CFIT/ALA Schedule revised • TAWS actions basically done, ICAO CFIT Training Tool on JAA website • status check Aug 2002: less covered than expected • consequences discussed. Action Plans were: • re-prioritised at JSSI APT meeting, Nov 02 • re-planned in close cooperation with Ops Division • finalized and approved by JSSI StG, May 03 • presented for approval in OST meeting, May03, aiming for JAAC approval end 2003
JSSI update LoC Action Plans DRAFTED • Advance Maneuver • HF & Automation • SOP • Operational procedures ON HOLD • Risk management AGREED • Flight Envelope Protection • Vertical Situation Displays • Auto-flight • Icing • Displays & Alerting systems
JSSI update LoC Action Plans SCHEDULE • Advance Maneuver, HF & Automation, SOP, Operational procedures to be agreed with the OST before adoption by JAAC • Risk management on hold pending discussions with FAA on CPS • Flight envelope protection, Vertical Situation Displays, Auto-flight*), Icing*), Displays & Alerting systems*) should be adopted by the JAAC at its Oct03 meeting *) rely on harmonization work: • JAA NPA on Icing and Auto-flight prepared
JSSI update DESIGN RELATED LITTLE ACTION/PROGRESS Final report delivered Jan 2002, including: • One Terms of Reference for Harmonisation : • Tyre/wheel burst • One proposal to further investigate • Certification/ Maintenance Interface • One proposal to further investigate the concept of “Deep Treatment of Anomalies/Precursors” *) *) Follow-up within the Occurrence Data Analysis Specification working group
JSSI update ODAS Occurrence Data Analysis Specs JSSI StG established ODAS working group • Produce data users’ functional specifications document for ECCAIRS • six tasks including initial specifications definition (e.g. Precursor Detection, Deep Treatment, Safety Performance Indicators) • Authorities and Interested Parties participating including FAA, Boeing and Airbus • Final report November 2003.
JSSI update WEATHER • Participating in CAST Joint Safety Analysis Team: start originally planned Sep02, put on hold pending conclusion of other team examining areas of risks not covered yet • Result: re-named Risk Reduction Team, start Jan03 • JSSI representative Airbus is only European participating (Dutch Nat’l Aerospace Lab withdrew) • Icing is one important element
JSSI update OSS LITTLE ACTION/PROGRESS Final report includes: • recommendation on Unruly passenger • recommendation on improving Quality of Cargohandling • 4 detailed recommendations on Crew training/drills,Cabin Crew/Passenger communication,Effectiveness of seatbelts,Seat/floor attachment • ToR for Harmonisation: Holistic approach to evacuation • 3 Research proposals : On-board load and balance system,Smoking in toilets, Framework for data exchange
JSSI update OSS • Draft report issued Sep 02 • Detailed recommendations presented to OST Sep 02, no adverse comments received so far • Issue Final report initially planned Jan03, postponed, currently being re-planned
JSSI updateRUNWAY SAFETY Joint Task Force of JAA, EUROCONTROL, ICAO-Europe and GASR: • Established 2001 • Published Safety letter • Gathered data • Anonymous Questionnaires to pilots and ATCOs • Interviews: selected airports and airlines • Data Banks from States and Service Providers • Start selecting areas needing improvement
JSSI update RUNWAY SAFETY RS Task Force findings for Europe: • Runway Incursion every 3 or 4 days • Near-collision due to RI every 2 or 3 months RUNWAY INCURSION IS A MAJOR ISSUE
JSSI update RUNWAY SAFETY RS TASK FORCE FOLLOW-UP ACTION • Drafted strategic plan • Proposed areas for improvement • Made initial recommendations: • Awareness RS general • Data Collection & Analysis • Communications (RT phraseology, Language proficiency) • Procedures (ATC, Pilots, Drivers) • Visual Aids, Signs & Markings (ICAO Annex 14) • Situational Awareness • Maps & Charts • Held RS Workshop, EUROCONTROL, Brussels, Sep02
JSSI update RUNWAY SAFETY Conclusion of RS Workshop 9-10 Sep 2002 Start key remedial actions • Set up RS programme at aerodrome level • Pursue European co-operation • Further develop TF/Workshop recommendations • Stop Task Force, set up Working Group with Steering Committee to monitor/steer implementation
JSSI update RUNWAY SAFETY RS Working Group • Established Sep 2002 • Drafted Terms of References of WG and StC • Proposed StC membership: directors level JAA, GASR, EUROCONTROL, ICAO, IATA, ACI, IFATCA, IFALPA, a.o. • Selected Runway Incursions as first priority • Drafted recommendations, developed into an Action Plan, issued Apr 2003: European Action Plan for the Prevention of Runway Incursions
JSSI update RUNWAY SAFETY European Action Plan for the Prevention of Runway Incursions • Reviewed by RS Steering Committee in Feb 2003, submitted to associated bodies for endorsement • Endorsed: - Fully by EUROCONTROL • With caveat by GASR • Technically by JAA, awaiting JAAC formalization • On EUROCONTROL website www.eurocontrol.int/safety/runwayincursion.htm • Printed hardcopies since May 2003
