  3. FAA Safety Management Approach INTERNAL SMS – State Safety Management Program • Established a safety management system framework for AVS organizations • Order VS.8000.1, Safety Management System Doctrine EXTERNAL SMS • FAA will form an Aviation Rulemaking Committee (ARC) to develop an SMS regulation applicable across the industry. • Propose to issue an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to solicit comments on a single set of requirements for regulated entities. • In the interim, FAA will file a difference with ICAO against Annex 6 SMS requirements • Note: FAA has established an SMS for air traffic service providers.

  4. FAA Organizational Update • Acting Administrator • Minimal AVS organizational changes • Abolished the Suspected Unapproved Parts Office • Several new managers • FAA reauthorization on hold • Not expected in 2008 • Extension for the interim • No progress on funding future air traffic system

  5. Increased Congressional Scrutiny • April 2008 Hearings on FAA Safety Oversight • Airline Inspections (Two-Phases) • Airworthiness Directive Process Study • Independent Safety Review Team • 120-day study “to evaluate and craft recommendations to improve the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) implementation of the aviation safety system and its safety culture.”

  6. U.S./European Community Aviation Safety Agreement • Signature was delayed last summer due to new EASA fees and charges regulation. • EASA/industry working group has proposed a two phase approach to address fees and charges concerns. • Based on assurances from both EASA and the European Commission that these changes will be implemented, U.S. government may proceed with signature of the bilateral. • Ratification/implementation will be delayed until new “hybrid” fee system is in the final Community approval process.

  7. New Regulations and Policy CERTIFICATION REGULATIONS • Transport Airplane Aging Aircraft Rules: • Part 26 - Subpart E (Damage Tolerance Data for Repairs and Alterations) • Enhanced Airworthiness Program for Airplane Systems (EAPAS) • Associated guidance materials -12 Advisory Circulars • Performance and Handling Requirements for Rotorcraft • Revisions to Cockpit Voice Recorder and Digital Flight Data Recorder Regulations • Affected 14CFR parts 23, 25, 27, 29, 91, 121, 125, 129 and 135
