ATSB - Safety Actions for casa and airservices


ATSB TRANSPORT SAFETY INVESTIGATION REPORT


Aviation Safety Research and Analysis Report 20050342 Final: Perceived

Pilot Workload and Perceived Safety of RNAV (GNSS) Approaches

The report made the following Safety Actions from the report:

Safety Actions

As a result of the findings of this study, and from feedback received during the consultation process, the ATSB has made a number of recommendations to enhance the safety of RNAV (GNSS) approaches.

Recommendations to Airservices Australia include:

• A study to determine whether the presentation of information, including distance information, on RNAV (GNSS) approach charts is presented in the most effective way;
• A review of the 21.5% of approaches with segment lengths different from the 5 NM optimum and/or multiple steps to determine whether some further
improvements could be achieved;
• A review of waypoint naming conventions for the purpose of improving readability and contributing to situational awareness; and
• A review of training for air traffic control officers for the purpose of ensuring clearances for RNAV (GNSS) approaches are granted in a timely manner.

Recommendations to CASA include:


• Further research to better understand factors affecting pilot workload and
situational awareness during the RNAV (GNSS) approach; and
• A review of training for pilots for the purpose of ensuring clearances for RNAV (GNSS) approaches are granted in a timely manner.

The question is:

What progress have casa made???

What progress have airservices made???

As one is a joint safety action, what has casa done to ensure that the airservices safety action has been met??

What is the time frame??? being undertaken??
