the below , extracted from Aser's CAA document on HOMP.
It is important that the objectives of, and procedures for, an FDM programme are
defined in a protocol which is accepted by aircrew before FDM is implemented.Agreements must be reached with aircrew, and there must be a good consensus
between all parties if a programme is to succeed.
An FDM programme must be seen to be non-punitive, and operated in a manner
which ensures the trust and co-operation of aircrew.
So why has FDM been introduced so furtively ie virtually un announced into CHC GO. I am happy to embrace it wholeheartedly but some sort of announcement would have been , if nothing else , a common courtesy. I am not speaking from ignorance. I have attended a presentation of the Bristow version (HUMS) as well as Mike Pilgrim's version.(FDM) I was impressed. But I ask again. Why has this system been introduced without anything so much as a memo. Zip . Zilch. Nada. Pretty poor show and no , CHC GO pilots do not (yet) have the luxury that our colleagues do in CHC EO ie a union.
