Workshop for Licensing and Operations Operations Cologne – Germany – 9 June 2005 Georges Rebender/Evan Nielsen 1

Workshop for Licensing and Operations The Europe – US International Aviation Safety Conference Workshop for Licensing and Operations OVERVIEW  JAA AOC Holders Safety overview 2004  Rulemaking - Standardisation - JOEB  Current status (Where we are.. )  Moving towards EASA JOEB - Standardisation - Rulemaking 2

Workshop for Licensing and Operations The Europe – US International Aviation Safety Conference Workshop for Licensing and Operations JAA AOC HOLDERS SAFETY OVERVIEW 2004 (I)  Safety Analysis 2004:  2004 has been the safest year for JAA operators over the previous 10 years, with zero fatalities.  But, there is no room for complacency, because:  Results showed adverse trends in the areas of technical failures and of smoke in the cockpit/cabin, leading to emergency procedures.  Collisions during ground and taxiing operations have led to costly repairs and have impinged on operators’ resources.  Dangerous proximity encounters of aircraft are still an issue. 3

Workshop for Licensing and Operations The Europe – US International Aviation Safety Conference Workshop for Licensing and Operations JAA AOC HOLDERS SAFETY OVERVIEW 2004 (II) B.Safety Orientations: 1.The expertise of all the involved parties is needed. 2.The root cause analysis of cockpit/cabin smoke/fire occurrences would better involve aircraft design/ continued airworthiness expertise. 3.CFIT/ALAR has been addressed in recent JAR-OPS amendments, and the ALAR tool kit has been disseminated. 4.Loss of Control deep treatment near to completion: under consideration - aircraft “safety-nets”, multi- culturally oriented training 4

Workshop for Licensing and Operations The Europe – US International Aviation Safety Conference Workshop for Licensing and Operations STANDARDISATION CURRENT STATUS (I) STANDARDISATION CURRENT STATUS (I)  Global picture  Main issues  Implementation of JAR-OPS amendments  Delegation/division between task and responsibility (NAAs, Operators)  Resources  Lessons learnt: Standardisation process improvement  Step 1: auditors checklists  Step 2: JIPS (in preparation of IR B part) 6

Workshop for Licensing and Operations The Europe – US International Aviation Safety Conference Workshop for Licensing and Operations STANDARDISATION CURRENT STATUS (II)  Standardisation - STD global picture  Main Issues  Adoption and implementation of JAR-STD for countries not possessing STDs.  Qualification of STDs outside JAA geographic boundaries: FAA/JAA harmonisation process: Step 1: AC b /JAR STD differences identification achieved. Step 2: How to address those differences - enlarging the JAA/FAA picture so as to embrace the Community views. 3. Review of JIPS and checklists. 7

Workshop for Licensing and Operations The Europe – US International Aviation Safety Conference Workshop for Licensing and Operations Standardisation areas which may need further consideration:  AOC holders are subject to numerous audits from different organisations which cover, to a great extent, the same operational ground.  AOC holders oversight harmonisation may improve cross-fertilisation and reduce costs.  Audience views are welcomed. 8

Workshop for Licensing and Operations The Europe – US International Aviation Safety Conference Workshop for Licensing and Operations RULEMAKING CURRENT STATUS (I)  JAR-OPS Principles:  Ensuring a high and uniform level of safety, thereby providing a level playing field based on: ICAO Annex 6 standards compliance,ICAO Annex 6 standards compliance, Accountability of Multicultural European environment,Accountability of Multicultural European environment, Balanced social/economical views,Balanced social/economical views, Accountability of environmental issuesAccountability of environmental issues 2. Integrative concept (the whole thing must work together!) 9

Workshop for Licensing and Operations The Europe – US International Aviation Safety Conference Workshop for Licensing and Operations RULEMAKING CURRENT STATUS (II)  Recent JAR-OPS amendments: Reflect all recent ICAO annex 6 amendments (TAWS, FDM, In flight Security…) and also OST risk mitigation processes, CRM, CRD, Cabin safety, AQTP, ground de/anti icing, RAs (ACAS)

Workshop for Licensing and Operations The Europe – US International Aviation Safety Conference Workshop for Licensing and Operations RULEMAKING CURRENT STATUS (III)  FAA Harmonisation Working Parties/Work program  AWO: Rewriting JAR-OPS subpart E  Performance D-NPA  ETOPS: work ongoing  Other issues in relation with FAA:  CRD  ATQP  MMEL  Defibrillators  Activities transferred from JAA Regulation Div to Operations Div (Business Plan 2005): CNS/ATM, Airports, CSSG, JAR-26, ETOPS/LROPS CNS/ATM, Airports, CSSG, JAR-26, ETOPS/LROPS 11

AOC holders Quality System - what's next? Consideration of Safety Management System Consideration of Safety Management System Audience views are welcomed. Audience views are welcomed. 12

Workshop for Licensing and Operations The Europe – US International Aviation Safety Conference Workshop for Licensing and Operations JOEB Process - Current Status  The JOEB process has achieved full maturity, very much helped by the FAA/Transport Canada/JAA harmonised working procedures.  JOEB early transfer to EASA offers best process continuity and best airworthiness/operations consistency.  JOEB ToRs, JIPS and JSET ToRs amended to reflect all changes of responsibilities from JAA to EASA.  Detailed presentation by new process owner i.e. EASA Flight Standards Manager follows this presentation.  Need to maintain harmonisation in areas of MMEL/MEL and Pilot Qualification Plan: EASA views.  Pilot/Cockpit interface research: Evan Nielsen. 13

Workshop for Licensing and Operations The Europe – US International Aviation Safety Conference Workshop for Licensing and Operations Moving towards EASA JOEB Process JOEB Process  Successful JOEB early transition - EASA Flight Standards is now at the controls.  EASA JOEB: main issues - Evan Nielsen Manager Flight Standards presentation.

Workshop for Licensing and Operations The Europe – US International Aviation Safety Conference Workshop for Licensing and Operations Moving towards EASA Standardisation Process  EASA has sole competence on maintenance issues, in particular on matters related to IR-M /sub part M, which are part of the AOC.  Initiative was successfully taken so as to synchronise maintenance/operations standardisation visits.

Workshop for Licensing and Operations The Europe – US International Aviation Safety Conference Workshop for Licensing and Operations Moving towards EASA Rulemaking process  Multi-disciplinary NPAs: EASA NPAs to circulate most of the multi-disciplinary NPAs (ex CNS/ATM) - agreed between EASA and OST.  NPA-OPS 29 SEIMC : Airworthiness/ cont airworthiness issues to be extracted from ops and to be handled by EASA - agreed by EASA and supported by OST.  Cancellation of JAR-OPS Subpart M: To be replaced by reference to IR-M and consequential adaptations of affected JAR-OPS paragraphs - agreed by OST.  Development of non-commercial operational codes: Ops proposal to avoid duplication of effort, and accountability of opinion #3- related proposals, suggest future JAR-OPS 0, 2 & 4 should await further EASA/Community developments - OST agreement.  JAR-26 common plan EASA/JAA near completion.
