17. A4 FORMAT Please don’t change page set up to A3, print to A3 paper and fit to scale 17 What Is FDM ? Definition “A systematic method of accessing, analysing and acting upon information obtained from digital flight data records of routine operations to improve safety” FDM involves the pro-active use of flight data to identify and address operational risks before they can lead to incidents and accidents

18. A4 FORMAT Please don’t change page set up to A3, print to A3 paper and fit to scale 18 Why use FDM ? The Heinrich Pyramid FDM Incidents For every major accident there are several less significant accidents, hundreds of reportable incidents and thousands of unreported Occurrences FDM gives more detail on the incidents, encourages more consistent reporting and fills in the void that we know very little about
