AVIATION SAFETY Flashcards
It means the state of an
aviation system or organization in which risks
associated with aviation activities, related
to, or in direct support of the operation of
aircraft, are reduced and controlled to an
acceptable level.
Aviation safety
It encompasses the
theory, practice, investigation, and
categorization of flight failures, and the
prevention of such failures through
regulation, education, and training.
Aviation safety
It can be applied in the context of
campaigns that inform the public as to the
safety of air travel.
Aviation safety
It is the state in which the possibility of harm
to persons or of property damage is
reduced to, and maintained.
Safety
It is a dynamic characteristic of the aviation system.

The Evolution of Safety : 3 Eras
The technical era
The human factors era
The organizational era
early 1900s until the late 1960s
Technical Era
The focus of safety endeavors was
therefore placed on the investigation and
improvement of technical factors.
During TECHNICAL ERA
In what year did technological improvements led to a gradual decline in the frequency of
accidents, and safety processes were
broadened to encompass regulatory
compliance and oversight?
1950s
early 1970s until the mid-1990s
Human Factors Era
In the early 1970s, the frequency of
aviation accidents was significantly
reduced due to major technological
advances and enhancements to safety
regulations.
During HUMAN FACTORS ERA
It was first acknowledged that individuals operate in a complex environment, which includes multiple factors having the potential to
affect behavior.
Early 1990s
mid-1990s to the present day
Organization Era
safety began to be viewed from a systemic
perspective
During ORGANIZATION ERA
an occurrence associated with the operation of an aircraft
that take place between the intention of
flight and the time all such (occupancy and
non-occupancy) suffer a fatal or serious
injury or the AIRCRAFT RECEIVE A SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE.
ACCIDENT
an occurrence other than
accident with the operation of an aircraft
that could affect the safety operation.
INCIDENT
the freedom of hazard, the
absence of risk.
SAFETY
the probability that an event
will occur.
RISK
an event not involving
damage or injury but with the potential for
damage or injury for occurs.
HAZARD
the act of preventing
ask by some prior to action or by interposing
an obstacle or impendent.
PREVENTIONS
Precaution – a measure taken before
hand against possible danger or failure.
PRECAUTION
ability to obtain whole
burden headed fellowship for a hidden
force of action.
LEADERSHIP
be having correct
toward common good or goal.

4 Accident Categories
Major Accident
Severe Accident
Injury Accident
Damage Accident
it is defined as an
aviation accident in which aircraft
was destroyed
Major Accident
it is defined as an
aviation accident in which there was
one fatality without substantial
damage to the aircraft or there was
at least one serious injury and the
aircraft was substantially damage.
Severe Accident
This type of accident is
defined as non - fatal accident with
at least one serious injury and without
substantially damage to the aircraft.
Injury Accident
It is defined as an
accident in which no person was
killed or serious injury but in which
aircraft was substantially damaged.
Damage Accident
Accident happen in which people may be:
Injured
Serious Injury
Inhalation of toxic gases or liquids
Electric Shocks
Corrosive Burns
Wounds or Cuts
Bone Fractures
Fatal Injury
Substantial Damage
Damage for
structural failure that negatively
affects aircraft structural strength,
performance of flying characteristics,
and which would require significant
repair or replacement of the affected
component or system.
Substantial Damage
this kind of injury that
causes death and makes a person’s
unconscious.
Fatal Injury
4 Kinds of Accident
Near Mild Air Collision
Runway Collision
In Flight Fire
Flight Critical Failure
the term critical
is subject to various interpretation
some examples are control system,
malfunction and engine failure.
Flight Critical Failure
merely refer to its smoke
event that can cause to a time
critical situation that demands
immediate action
In Flight Fire
It is an act of
instance of colliding encounter
between two aircraft resulting in
exchange or transformation of
energy.
Runway Collision
It is an
accident where two or more aircraft
come into unplanned contact during
flight.
Near Mild Air Collision
It is a statement of the organization’s
fundamental approach to achieve
acceptable or tolerable safety”.
Safety Policy
SMS
Safety Management System
It is considered the foundation of the Safety
Management System (SMS) established by
an operator/service provider.
Organizational Safety Policy
It is afforded highest priority in the
service provision.
Safety
Normally it is a written
document that describes the generic
principles upon which the SMS is built and
operated.
Safety Policy
It is a declaration of the overall safety objective of the organization.
Policy statement
It sets the general direction
and aspirations for improved safety
performance
Policy statement
7 Basic Safety Principles
Commitment to safety principle
Safety responsibility principle
Safety management principle
Safety standards principle
Safety achievement principle
Safety Promotion principle
Safety Policy
It typically includes a statement about the
commitment of the organization’s senior
management to ensure that all aspects of
service provision meet the safety
performance targets.
Commitment to safety principle
It is declared the
highest priority of the organization.
Safety
It requires that all staff of the organization
have individual responsibility for their own
actions in respect to safety, and that
management is responsible for the safety
performance of the organization.
Safety responsibility principle
It is an important
prerequisite for proactive SMS
implementation
Planning for safety
It confirms the commitment to an explicit and
proactive approach to safety by means of
a formal SMS implementation.
Safety management principle
It includes the organizational aspects of SMS and
requires that a safety management
structure with associated roles and
responsibilities is established within the
organization.
Safety management principle
It ensures the compliance with the
applicable safety regulatory requirements
and the organization’s aspiration to adopt
internationally recognized safety standards
and best practices in safety management.
Safety standards principle
It requires that means, processes, procedures
and resources are used by the organization
(e.g. risk assessment, occurrence reporting
and investigation, etc.) to satisfy the high -
level safety objective and safety
performance targets.
Safety achievement principle
It ensures that safety lessons and key
messages are disseminated throughout the
organization, communication of safety
issues is encouraged and changes are
systematically made to improve safety.
Safety Promotion principle
It is typically written
and documented under the authority of the
highest level of management of the
organization, approved by the State’s
regulator and communicated to all staff of
the organization.
Safety Policy
It seeks to proactively mitigate safety risks before theyresult in aviation accidents and incidents.
Safety management
It is commonly understood as applying a set of principles, framework, processes and measures to prevent accidents, injuries and other
adverse consequences that may be
caused by using a service or a product
