7 IHST Accident Intervention Workshop March 4, 2013 Las Vegas, NV IHST’s attitude towards safety: IHST takes a proactive attitude that anyone’s helicopter accident belongs to all of us. Accidents affect our collective reputation as providers of air transportation and suppliers of air services… We don’t need to accept accidents or a high industry accident rate, and it affects our profitability if we do so. –Jack Drake, IHST JHSAT Accident Analysis Group –Presented at ISASI 2008

11 IHST Accident Intervention Workshop March 4, 2013 Las Vegas, NV D Install cockpit recording devices. (52.8%) Develop and install FDM equipment to record the actions of the flight crew. Data can be used as local immediate feedback to trainers, operators and flight crews. The data could also aid in the event of accident investigation to support a more complete analysis and future safety recommendations. ✔ T Autorotation Training Program. (13%) Improve autorotation training in both primary and advanced flight training and develop simulator programs to improve autorotation skills. ✔ M Follow ICA Procedures with Confirmation of Compliance. (11.9%) Ensure that maintainers and operators are aware of the importance of following the manufacturer’s maintenance manuals and practices. Require Regulators to enforce regulations that require the use of the manufacturer’s maintenance manuals and practices. ✔ T Simulator Training - Advanced Maneuvers. (10.9%) Incorporate simulator programs into training program that would include dynamic rollover, Emergency Procedures Training, Ground resonance, quick stop maneuvers, targeting approach procedures and practice in pinnacle approaches, unimproved landing areas, and elevated platforms ✔ TOP 20 INTERVENTION RECOMMENDATIONS CY2000, CY2001, CY2006) U.S. Compendium report

12 IHST Accident Intervention Workshop March 4, 2013 Las Vegas, NV TOP 20 INTERVENTION RECOMMENDATIONS CY2000, CY2001, CY2006) U.S. Compendium report S Personal Risk Management Program (IMSAFE). (10.1%) Encourage the implementation and use of a personal Risk Management program and utilize the IMSAFE checklist. ✔ T Training emphasis for maintaining awareness of cues critical to safe flight. (9.0%) Establish training programs that train and evaluate proficiency of critical issues such as systems failures, impending weather concerns, effects of density altitude, and wind and surface conditions that can become critical to safe flight. ✔ M Better Maintenance/Quality Assurance oversight to ensure adherence to the ICA/Manual. (8.2%) Encourage operators and maintainers to implement a robust Quality Assurance program that ensures the use of manufacturers maintenance manuals, service bulletins, and procedures. ✔ S Mission Specific Risk Management Program. (7.8%) A formal Safety Management System (SMS) requires training for specific missions, the establishment and enforcement of standard operating procedures, provisions and training of personnel to use risk assessment tools, and most importantly changing the safety culture to ensure that all personnel put “Safety’ first. ✔ T Enhanced Aircraft Performance & Limitations Training. (7.1%) Operators should provide robust training and continual evaluation of their pilots on aircraft performance. This training should include the effects of density altitude, gross weight and flight manual limitations ✔

13 IHST Accident Intervention Workshop March 4, 2013 Las Vegas, NV TOP 20 INTERVENTION RECOMMENDATIONS CY2000, CY2001, CY2006) U.S. Compendium report T Emergency Procedures Training. (6.9%) Encourage the use of EP trainers with the emphasis on Loss of System, Recognition and Recovery training. ✔ T CFI judgment and decision making training to follow student more closely. (6.9%) Require CFIs to participate and show proficiency in Aeronautical Decision Making (ADM) training programs and recognize the typical student errors training before they exercise the privileges of their certificate. ✔ E Install Proximity Detection System. (6.7%) Utilization of this technology would provide proximity detection equipment that would aid in identifying ground obstructions. This operational enhancement would prove to be valuable due to the requirement of helicopters to operate in close proximity to obstacles. ✔ T In-flight Power/Energy Management Training. (6.5%) Require increased training and documented proficiency evaluation of power/energy management issues. This training improvement should include detailed training on flight manual information related to density altitude, and weight and performance issues of each aircraft the pilot will operate. ✔ S Establish/Improve Company Risk Management Program. (6.5%) Require the establishment and/or improvement of company risk management programs which would include the hazard identification and analysis and risk assessment and control. IHST SMS Toolkit provides a scalable SMS program for any size of operation. ✔

(6.3%) Develop and install FDM equipment to record the actions of the flight crew. Data can be used as local immediate feedback to trainers, operators, and flight crews. The data could aid in investigations to support more complete analysis and future recommendations. ✔ S Use Operational Risk Management Program (Preflight). (6.1%) The use of a continual cyclic process which includes risk assessment, risk decision-making, and implementation of risk controls, would have positive results in the area of acceptance, mitigation, or avoidance of risk and is essential for aviation safety. ✔ S Use Operational Risk Management Program (In-flight). (5.7%) Develop and incorporate into flight operations a risk management tool that provides pilots and crews with a method of evaluating the various hazards and risk of each mission. Include a checklist for use while airborne on the use of decision-making. ✔ T Simulator Training – Basic Maneuvers. (5.4%) Develop and implement a standard for pilot training focusing on operational specific scenarios, human factors, and the use of simulators and flight training devices (FTDs). ✔ T Risk Assessment/Management Training. (5.4%) Require the establishment and/or improvement of the company safety training which includes risk management programs emphasizing weather decision- making tools. ✔
