1 NM Top 5 Safety Priorities Tzvetomir BLAJEV

A Serious Incident Analysis A conditional clearance Behind next landing short final, line up 07 behind. Correct readback. No reference that A321 to take-off before.

2 A Serious Incident Analysis A conditional clearance Behind next landing short final, line up 07 behind. Correct readback. No reference that A321 to take-off before. B737 is given clearance to land and ATR42 begins to move onto rwy via a RET. ATC did not see the ATR42 until the pass was taking place. ASMGCS unserviceable. The B737 crew saw late. Crash narrowly missed.

3 What factors were involved? 1. Convey incomplete information. 2. Plan clearance not relative to the next movement. 3. Risky procedure use of RET with no line of sight. 4. Perception/detection ATC. 5. Airport systems. 6. Perception/detection Crew 7. Providence A conditional clearance Behind next landing short final, line up 07 behind. Correct readback. No reference - the A321 to take-off before. B737 is given clearance to land and ATR42 begins to move onto rwy via a RET. ATC did not see the ATR42 until the pass was taking place. ASMGCS unserviceable. The B737 crew saw late. Crash narrowly missed.

4 Counting factors is not Grasping reasons! 1. Convey incomplete information. 2. Plan. 3. Risky procedure. 4. Perception/detection ATC. 5. Airport systems. 6. Perception/detection Crew 7. Providence

5 How to get the safety priorities then? EXPERTISE - Develop an approach based on explicit safety control functions and not on counting factors. DATA - Use a robust data set to see what safety function works and what safety function fails. KNOWLEDGE - Peer group review of the data to make sense of the success and failure and decide on the priorities.

30 The suggested Top 5 safety priorities

31 Risk of operation without transponder or with a dysfunctional one A single threat often removing all the barriers up to see and avoid ; No ATC awareness; No STCA; No TCAS/ACAS.

32 ACAS RA not followed The associated risk is extremely high; No ATC control; Often the providence is the only available barrier;

33 Blind Spot Conflict was not detected with the closest aircraft; Often after descending clearance; Majority are triggered by sector exit constraints or rushed clearance after a pilot request Rapidly developing situation often 1000ft and 15 Nm between the conflicting a/c.

34 Controller detection of potential runway conflict Good share of the severe Runway Incursion incidents could have been prevented; Need for the controllers to detect that the runway was occupied at the time of giving a clearance for the next aircraft to use it.

35 Sudden High Energy Runway Conflict Typically involves rapidly developing situation Runway entry in front of a high energy landing or taking-of aircraft At position where the available reaction time is close to or less than the needed reaction time for detection, communication and collision avoidance manoeuvre

36 In Summary EXPERTISE - Develop an approach based on explicit safety control functions and not on counting factors. DATA - Use a robust data set to see what safety function works and what safety function fails. KNOWLEDGE - Peer group review of the data to make sense of the success and failure and decide on the priorities.
