                     Orient Flights training department will conduct a workshop on Aviation Safety Management (Flight Safety & SMS) on September 11, 2013, at Orient Flight Centre, Pondicherry.                        Workshop is tailored for aviation safety practitioners responsible for the formation, implementation or expansion of an SMS within their organizations.                  The workshop will provide basic SMS concepts while also covering safety risk management (hazards, risks and controls); human factors; reactive, proactive and predictive safety management tools and methods; positive safety culture; and SMS implementation overview. Those who attend workshop will understand the theory, principles and application of an SMS as well as ICAO requirements for implementation and DGCA guidance for operators and organizati...

   Salient feature of  program :  Flight Safety - Accident/Indecent Prevention Program    1. steps for building safety culture in the organisation and declare firm commitment to safety. 2.To carry out periodically  internal safety audit of different divisions like operations, maintenance, commercial, security, ground support, etc. and carried out by a dedicated group comprising of at least a senior pilot and an engineer. 3. The value of data retrieved from the Cockpit Voice Recorders (CVR) and Digital Flight Data Recorders (DFDR) has been proven. Periodic monitoring of CVR and DFDR must be carried out by all operators.  4. develop suitable computer software to determine the deviations of different flight parameters beyond acceptable limits. 5.The cockpit procedures must be standardised and the Examiners/ Instructors / Check Pilots of the airlines, while flying with other pilots, should ensure strict adherence to the laid down procedures ...
