Overview of Accident Trend

Globally, the number of fatalities, accident rate and fatal accident rate are stable. 2011 data show a slight increase in 2011 figures. Three categories (runway safety, loss of control, and CFIT)

account for 67% of all fatalities over 10 years; focused actions ongoing in each area

Latin America and the Caribbean is a medium traffic region – 4th highest in the world Eastern Caribbean very low traffic volume

Low number of accidents cannot indicate any trends

Matching Priorities Effective Implementation by State

Lower EI: Focus on the 8 Critical Elements

Higher EI: Target

Operational Issues

Outcomes of GRSS: – Collaboration of all stakeholders is required - RSP Partners commitment – Runway Safety Teams (RSTs) – multidisciplinary teams should be established locally

and hosted by the airports

Regional Runway Safety Seminars (RRSSs): – Promote and enhance implementation of mitigations and best practices through RSTs – 3-day format includes optional workshop for new RSTs – Miami event in 2011 and another tentatively planned for Mexico City in the last

quarter of 2012. Mexico City airport is first pilot airport to establish a Runway Safety Team; Jamaica has also established an RST and Cuba plans to.

Runway Safety Website www.icao.int/RunwaySafety : – Easy access to information on public website, including documents and toolkits from

RSP Partners – Development of online guidance material for RSTs – Development of online RST Action Plan Tool

Addressing the Operational Issue: Runway Safety

12

ICAO Actions: • Host monthly meetings of international regulators and experts, in coordination with

the US FAA ARC on LOC-I and the International Committee for Aviation Training in Extended Envelope (March through September 2012)

• Collect globally acceptable best practices, including mitigating HF issues, for upset prevention and recovery training (UPRT) as a basis for ICAO provisions development

• Publish requirements, procedures and guidance for UPRT

Deliverables: • Licensing and Training requirements (Annex 1 and Annex 6, Part I) – Nov 2013 • UPRT provisions for MPL, CPL, type-rating and recurrent training in PANS-TRG -2013 • Manual on UPRT and update of DOC 9625 for FSTD modeling – December 2012 • Symposium on UPRT/LOC-I in 2014

Loss of Control In-flight ICAO website: • Easy access to information on public website, including documents and toolkits for

UPRT • Development of online guidance material for UPRT

Addressing the Operational Issue: Loss of Control

13

Major improvement in the last decade due to: • EGPWS equipage now mandatory for all turbine aeroplanes with a

MTOW > 5,7 T or carrying more than 9 passengers • Glass cockpit installed on many GA aeroplanes have some form of

terrain alerting system • Effort by ICAO and Industry on education and training (e.g. ALAR Tool

Kit)

Focus is now on implementation of Performance-based Navigation (PBN) • Objective is the provision of approach with vertical guidance at every

instrument runway of every airport

Several initiatives under consideration by the OPS panel to increase situation awareness • Head-up display, synthetic and enhanced vision systems

Addressing the Operational Issue: Controlled Flight Into Terrain (CFIT)

14

Developing a harmonized safety reporting system for: • USOAP ICVM • Runway Safety • Accident and Incidents • State Safety Overview

http://www.icao.int/iSTARS

Policy & Standardization – Working WITH the Aviation Community (Global Aviation Safety Plan) – Walking the talk of Safety Management – Realizing synergies between GASP and GANP

Safety Monitoring & Analysis – Continuous Monitoring – Facilitating the collection, sharing and use of

safety intelligence – Generating new sources of safety data

Taking Action to improve Safety – Coordinated community responses – Addressing the main killers – Addressing the regional differences

Safety Management

Revised Safety Management Manual has been published in with additional guidance on the State Safety Programme

New Annex 19 – First meeting of the Panel in Nov 2011 – Draft Annex proposed to ANC in April

2012 (Nov 2013 applicability) – First edition is primarily a compilation

of existing SARPs – Further amendments will be

considered by the Panel in the future

Air Transport Safety Indicator

ICAO’s First Safety Report – Launched on International Civil

Aviation Day 2011 – Published in all ICAO languages – Provides an overview of the

status of aviation safety – Identifies key Safety Issues – Outlines ICAO and partner

safety initiatives
