1 COSCAP-NA Programme Progress Report Discussion Paper 1 Introduction The purpose of this paper is to outline the progress made to achieve programme objectives as stated in the COSCAP-NA Programme Document and other additional objectives approved at the 1 st through 10 th Steering Committee Meetings. 2 Background st Steering Committee At the 1 st Steering Committee Meeting conducted in Beijing, China on the 8 th and 9 th of April 2003, the priorities for the programme were established and at subsequent meetings priorities were reviewed and amended as required. The assignment of priorities was based on the following criteria: i. High - Work to achieve the objectives will be continuous. ii. iii. Medium - Work to achieve the objectives will be carried out as time permits. Low - Little or no work will be carried out to achieve the objectives. After review of this report decisions may be made whether priorities require further amendment. Notes 1. CTA comments on the objectives/outputs are in bold italics. 2. Summary of Course and Seminar Participation to date is provided in Appendix A. 3. Detailed Course participation information is provided in Appendix B 4. Detailed Mission information is provided in Appendix C 3 Discussion of IMMEDIATE OBJECTIVES and OUTPUTS 3.1 Immediate Objective 1 Ensuring that safety oversight capabilities of Member Administrations meet international requirements and that all deficiencies identified by the ICAO Universal Safety Oversight (USOAP) Audit Reports have been fully corrected. Output 1.1 Action Plans, where needed, for correcting outstanding deficiencies, are prepared and implemented as appropriate. Steering Committee Priority High Corrective Action Plans to respond to USOAP audits related to Annex 1, 6 and 8, including follow up audits, have to a large extent been fully implemented by Member file: \\sc11_dp2 programme progress report vf.doc 1

2 States. For some States, CTA/AWE have assisted in providing guidance with some of the outstanding items during regular missions to States. An Aerodrome Certification and Safety Training Expert (ACSTE) and Air Traffic Service Consultant were engaged for short periods of time to assist States preparations for the ICAO USOAP audits related to Annex 11 and 14. In addition, COSCAP-NA ATM Experts have been engaged to assist States with the implementation of their ATM Safety Management Programme. A USOAP Seminar was provided in Beijing, China, during the period of December 2007 by the ICAO USOAP Office. The programme was attended by over 140 participants from 13 States/Administrations. The USOAP audit was conducted on China during March/April ATM and Aerodrome Experts were engaged by ROK to assist with their USOAP preparations. The Aerodrome Expert was also engaged for a one week mission to DPRK through the use of IFFAS funds. ROK and DPRK had their USOAP audit conducted in May 2008 and considerable support was provided to them to assist their efforts, with follow up support in the DPRK provided in 2009 and Mongolia completed its USOAP audit in July Numerous missions to Mongolia to support the CAAM Project Team complete their preparations for the audit were conducted by COSCAP-NA staff, plus experts in Aerodromes, Operations and ANS from COSCAP-SEA, the Republic of Korea and the Civil Aviation Department of Hong Kong. The main activity of the CTA, which until 2010 had been working with Member States to assist the review on implementation of SARPs in preparation of USOAP audits, has shifted to implementation of corrective action plans, and supporting the implementation of SMS and the new ICAO standards for a State Safety Programme (SSP). In support of the implementation of the Global Aviation Safety Plan (GASP) and the ICAO SSP, in 2009 and 2010 the Asian Region COSCAPs through the ARAST undertook a systematic review of the best practices in the first 5 focus areas and identified specific actions. This concluded that the implementation of the SSP will fully address the best practices of the GASP. At the 4 th ARAST (February 2011) members proposed that COSCAP SSP support efforts focus on ICAO SSP elements 1.4 Enforcement Policy, 2.2 Agreement on Service Provider Performance, 3.1 Oversight and 3.2 Safety Data Collection, Analysis and Exchange. The Asia Region COSCAPs, with support from the BEA, AIB Australia, AIB Republic of Korea, NTSB, AIB Singapore and ICAO, developed model regulations, model procedures and associated training to support Aircraft Accident and Incident Investigation within States having limited aviation activity. This area has been a frequent USOAP finding and DGCA/45 action item 45/8 requested the ICAO Technical Cooperation Bureau for support in this area. file: \\sc11_dp2 programme progress report vf.doc 2

3 The FAA generously supported the Asian COSCAPs with the assignment of an aerodrome expert to the COSCAP-SEA programme in Bangkok for 2 full time periods of 6 months over In support of Mongolia this enabled 2 missions in 2009 and 1 in The Asia Region COSCAPs, with support from the FAA, the CASA Australia, the CAD Hong Kong SAR, the Singapore CAA and ICAO developed model regulations, model procedures and associated training to support the implementation Performance Based Navigation (PBN). With the generous support of Boeing, COSCAP delivered 6 courses in 2010, including one in China, with another planned for 15 to 19 August 2011 at the ICAO Regional Office. In addition, in cooperation with the ICAO Flight Procedures Programme Office (FPP) 7 implementation workshops have been conducted with 6 additional workshops planned for 2011 including the Republic of Korea and Hong Kong SAR. 3.2 Immediate Objective 2 Establishing a dedicated forum for coordination and cooperation among the Civil Aviation Administrations of Member States, with the aim of harmonization of regulations, policies and procedures related to safety oversight, improving safety standards, and applying accident prevention measures. Output 2.1 The Steering Committee of the COSCAP-NA project, formally established by the project, will have become the forum for flight safety in North Asian countries. Steering Committee Priority LOW except for Foreign Air Operator Regulation - HIGH Major initiatives towards harmonization of regulations were assigned a LOW priority at the 1 st SC Meeting. However, to assist the development of a harmonization mechanism within COSCAP-NA, harmonization of Foreign Air Operator Regulation (technical draft) was undertaken by COSCAP-NA as a trial and assigned a HIGH Priority. At the 2 nd COSCAP-NA SC Meeting approval in principle was provided to the Foreign Air Operator Regulation and Manual of Foreign Air Operator Regulation and Surveillance. These documents were forwarded to Member States on 24 December COSCAP-NA developed a training programme for the surveillance of foreign air operators which has been provided to some Member States during regular missions. As a result of the DGCA Conference in March 2006, ICAO established a Working Group to examine Foreign Air Operator regulation and certification in an effort to harmonize requirements on a global basis. COSCAP-NA provided a Foreign Air Operator Inspector On-Job-Training programme to CAAC staff in June, September and December of 2007, and March 2008, utilizing draft material prepared by the ICAO Working Group. To support State implementation of Annex revisions related to Foreign Air Operator validation and surveillance, the Asia Region COSCAPs, with support from ICAO, the FAA and EASA, have developed model regulations, a model procedures manual and file: \\sc11_dp2 programme progress report vf.doc 3

4 Output 2.2 associated training course. This material was refined at a workshop in February 2009 involving the COSCAPs, Australia, ICAO, FAA and EASA and experienced Inspectors from a number of States. The pilot course was delivered at the ICAO Regional office 2 & 3 June 2009, and the CTA delivered another in Mongolia 6 & 7 October One day workshops were held in Beijing 3 September 2009, Changde 3 June 2010, and Seoul 24 December COSCAP-NA will provide further courses, workshops and support in Member States on request. A North Asia Regional Aviation Safety Team (NARAST), as proposed by the ICAO Assembly in 1998, for recommending accident prevention interventions in the Member Countries, is established under the project. Steering Committee Priority High Following decisions of the 8 th Steering Committee Meeting, the NARAST evolved during 2008 to form the combined Asian Regional Aviation Safety Team (ARAST). Eleven meetings of NARAST have now been completed, plus 4 of the combined ARAST and implementation of recommendations is ongoing once these are approved by the Steering Committee. The results of these meetings will be reviewed in detail under DP3 Safety Team Reports and Proposed Actions. In addition, DP3 includes a detailed report on the Implementation Status of NARAST action items. 3.3 Immediate Objective 3 Establishment of a systematic programme for inspection of air operators and maintenance organizations in Member States whose Civil Aviation Administrations currently lack the capability to do so independently. Output 3.1 Systematic surveillance, inspection and certification capability of air operators and maintenance organizations established in Member Administrations that lacked hitherto such capability. Steering Committee Priority High Member States needs in this area vary considerably. During regular missions to States, experts provide required guidance material that is available from the material developed by the COSCAP programme. The 2 nd COSCAP-NA Steering Committee Meeting established the process for On-Job-Training (OJT) that could be provided at the request of Member States. COSCAP-NA developed a draft policy for conducting OJT to Member States which was discussed with them during missions and a draft policy was forwarded to Member States in late In States where most of the classroom training has been completed, a programme of OJT has been established based on needs. During the programme, specialist and joint inspections of air operators have been conducted to permit best practices exchange between COSCAP-NA and National Inspectors. Due to the priority of preparing for USOAP audits limited OJT is being provided at this time. file: \\sc11_dp2 programme progress report vf.doc 4

Output 5.2 (Phase II) Training programmes, seminars and evaluations are conducted to assist CAAs, air operators and service providers with the implementation of Safety Management Systems. Steering Committee Priority HIGH Numerous training and SMS support activities have been delivered for the support of Member States during Phase I of the programme. Demand for support to Member States for the implementation of safety management systems as part of a State Safety file: \\sc11_dp2 programme progress report vf.doc 6

7 Programme is increasing, with the focus shifting from concepts and foundation training to implementation strategy and oversight programme development. During 2008 the CTA, while on mission to Mongolia and the DPRK, undertook discussions with CAA and service provider personnel to support SMS implementation. COSCAP-NA provided varied SMS support to the CAAC, KOCA, CAAM and GACA in , and is prepared to provide specific support to assess the implementation and effectiveness of SMS in The Asia Region COSCAPs, with the kind cooperation of the Republic of Korea delivered an Operator SMS Implementation as in conjunction with the ROK / FAA 3 rd Flight Safety Seminar, held 31 May to 2 in Seoul. In December 2010 a trial assessment of an air operator safety management system (SMS)was conducted by COSCAP with the cooperation of a volunteer CAA and a volunteer air operator and the kind support of SMS experts from the Airbus, AAPA, Boeing, IATA, SR Technics, CAA China, CAA Singapore, Korean Air Lines and the State of the Operator. The trial assessment protocol will be revised and used in a second trial and thereafter made available to Members as guidance for the refinement of their own safety oversight programmes intended to assess the effectiveness of SMS. The assessment method was reviewed with the Civil Aviation Office of Korea in March 2011 as part of the review of the ROK oversight system to take SMS into account. 4 Air Traffic Services At the 1 st COSCAP North Asia Steering Committee Meeting Member States strongly supported a role for COSCAP-NA to assist States with their preparations for USOAP audit of Annex 11 Air Traffic Services and related guidance material (subject to the availability of funding). Steering Committee Priority HIGH The Boeing Company kindly released sufficient funds to support the engagement of an Air Traffic Services Certification Expert for an initial period of six weeks. During this period he reviewed with Member States their compliance with Annex 11 SARPs and provided assistance to them concerning implementation of ICAO SARPs. Based on a decision of the 3 rd Steering Committee Meeting, COSCAP-NA with funding support from Airbus and Boeing engaged ATM Safety Experts to cooperate with States in the establishment of their ATM Safety Management programmes. In March 2007 and February 2008 ROK engaged an ATM expert to assist with their preparations for the USOAP audit. The ICAO Regional Officer ATM provided a workshop to Mongolia 10 to 12 November 2008 to support their radar implementation project.
