Q

Aviation safety is the state…

A

in which risks to personnel arising from aircraft operations are eliminated SFARP and, if it is not reasonably practicable to eliminate risks to health and safety, those risks are minimised SFARP, through a continuing process of hazard identification and safety risk management

Q

What where some of the issues with previous Technical Airworthiness Regulations (TAREGs)

A
  • Bespoke regulations for ADF aviation
  • Prescriptive regulations
  • No flexibility - has exemption regulations
  • Not able to readily support recognition of other airworthiness regulatory systems
  • Not reflective of contemporary best practice, and
  • Difficult to maintain

Q

Current DASR is based on industry best practice. It is widely accepted throughout regulatory communities that regulations should be Hazard and Outcome based. What do these terms mean?

A

Hazard based - Focus regulation on safety hazards and remove regulation not related to safety hazards
Outcome Based - Focus regulation on the outcome needed to treat threats to safety and not the means to achieving the outcome

Q

There are 2 main parts of the DASR, what are they?

A
  • The Basic Regulation (BR)

- Implementing Regulation (IR)

17
Q

Basic Regulation (1 part of DASR) has what purpose?

A

Allows Defence AA to;

  • provide direction to DASA and regulated organisations on the scope and objectives of DASR;
  • set common rules in the field of military aviation safety;
  • direct DASA to develop and maintain Implementing Regulations (IR) that amplify the operation of these common rules, within defined constraints provided in the BR
  • detail management requirements, relevant to most or all regulated organisations, rather than detailing such requirements in multiple IRs
18
Q

Implementing Regulation (1 part of DASR) has what purpose?

A

Primarily, the regulated community (i.e. FAA) is required to comply with the IRs, whereas the BRs establish the requirements for the Regulator (i.e.DASA)

19
Q

The Initial and Continuing Airworthiness regulations, for the most part cover aviation maintenance and engineering requirements (originally detailed within TAREGs). These regulations are divided into the following subcategories:

A
  • DASR 21 - Aircraft Design, Production and Certification
  • DASR M - Continuing Airworthiness Management
  • DASR 145 - Requirements for Maintenance Organisations
  • DASR 66 - Military Aircraft Maintenance Licensing
  • DASR 147 - Aircraft Maintenance Training Organisations
