Other Recent Initiatives Fatigue Risk Management Systems (FRMS) Endorsement mechanism for Aviation Language Test Providers Orlando, 27 April , 2010

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

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.

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.

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

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
