12. What we do now - FDLs Does it work? FRMS – a way forward.
Managing fatigue
What we do now - FDLs
Does it work?
FRMS – a way forward.
Orlando, 27 April , 2010

13. What is FRMS?
A continuous process of planning, monitoring and managing the level of alertness of flight and cabin crew when performing their duties.
Aims to manage fatigue irrespective of the cause.
Based on science and empirical findings.
Is data driven.
Requires a systematic, organizational approach.

14. Why move to FRMS?
Prescribed limitations provide only “one slice of cheese”.
FRMS provides more defence
barriers.
Addresses alertness variables not
addressed by FDLs.
Reflects unique and changing airline factors.
Manages fatigue risk relevant to specific circumstances
Allows for greater operational flexibility.

15. What is ICAO proposing? For application to:
Annex 6, Part 1 Operators: International Commercial Air Transport – Aeroplanes
Flight crew and cabin crew
All SARPs related to fatigue management to be brought under one broad heading
Prescriptive FDLs (as current)
FRMS
States to choose whether they will allow FRMS as an option to their operators
States to continue to provide prescriptive FDL regulations

16. What happens to the proposed FRMS SARPs now?
As of now: Preliminary review of proposed FRMS SARPs completed and accepted.
May 2010: State Letter to States.
Nov/Dec 2010:  Final review by ANC
Mar 2011:  Adoption by Council
Nov 2011:  Applicable date

17. Other Recent Initiatives

18. Endorsement of Aviation Language Test Providers – WHY?
High stakes!
Foster aviation language training and testing industry’s regulation
Access expertise
Orlando, 27 April , 2010

19. Endorsement of Aviation Language Test Providers – HOW?
Voluntary basis
Self-funding and self-sustaining
In partnership with ILTA, ICAEA, IFALPA and IFATCA
Non-threatening and formative
Orlando, 27 April , 2010
