OM A OPERATIONAL CONTROL AND SUPERVISION 2 2 OPERATIONAL CONTROL AND SUPERVISION The procedures and processes, within this chapter are defined and referenced to ensure standardisation, monitoring and supervision of every flight operation, company credentials and the qualifications of operations personnel. The overall system, procedures and processes are defined in the Operations Manual Part A, Chapter 2 Operational Control and Supervision, Chapter 3 Quality System and Chapter 11 Handling, Notifying and Reporting Occurrences. These standards must be followed and implemented to ensure that not only each flight, but all ensuing operations can be consistently and safely carried out. Where routine procedures fail, the traceability of all aspects of a flight operation must be ensured, as described in this and the above mentioned chapters, in order for corrective actions to be made and prevent any similar reoccurrence. The subjects of business steering, management and periodical evaluations of procedures and data are covered in the Operations Manual Part A, Chapter 3 Quality System. 2.1 Supervision of the operation by the operator 2.1.1 Air operators certificate The ultimate responsibility to ensure the validity of the air operator approvals, certificates and permits run concurrently and that the renewal procedures are followed within the time limits determined by the Federal Office of Civil Aviation (FOCA), lies with the Accountable Manager. The application for renewal has to be sent to FOCA latest 3 months prior to the expiry date. 2.1.2 Licence and qualification validity The privileges of licences, ratings, authorisations and/or certificates must not be exercised unless they are valid.

Concise and careful documentation of flight operations is essential to ensure efficient and effective operations, supervision and control, traceable and provable that they have been properly conducted. The control and analysis of these forms and records is constantly monitored by the relevant Postholder and by means of performed audits and quality inspections by the Quality Manager. Records and flight documentation shall be assessed, analysed and monitored regularly to ensure their correctness, completeness and accuracy. Any original information, or copies thereof, which concern the aeroplane, must be preserved for the required period and be accessible to the Federal Office of Civil Aviation (FOCA) and Quality Manager, even if Sample-Company ceases to be the operator of that particular aeroplane. System/methods/tools have to be defined by Sample-Company. 2.2 System of promulgation of additional operational instructions and information Changes at short notice shall be promulgated when ever possible in written form. If information has to be delivered orally, then a written confirmation shall be stored by the respective postholder. Tbd by Sample-Company. 2.3 Accident prevention and flight safety program The Accident Prevention and Flight Safety Programme is an independent monitoring of daily flight operations, to monitor adverse trends and is a tool to identify those occasions where routine procedures have failed and as a result enable corrective actions to be taken. It is not a programme designed to attribute blame, but to improve the level of flight safety. The aim of the Accident Prevention and Flight Safety Programme is to ensure that all operations personnel achieve and maintain risk awareness and prevent the occurrence of incidents and accidents, through detection, elimination, analysis and avoidance of potential hazards. Its aim is also to ensure that all the safety implications of each relevant incident or accident, and any similar previous occurrences, are assessed and disseminated, and as a result necessary action can be initiated, which thereby ensures that other persons and organisations may learn from them and prevent re-occurrence of a similar event. The Accident Prevention and Flight Safety Programme is proactive and all operations personnel are encouraged to communicate any information which may be important to the programme. If you have encountered an aviation situation which must be reported via the occurrence reporting system, as described in the Operations Manual Issue 1, Effective Date: 1.1.2010 22/65

OM A OPERATIONAL CONTROL AND SUPERVISION 2 Part A, Chapter 11 Handling, Notifying and Reporting Occurrences, this information will be fed into the programme and if you find any articles which may be relevant or interesting they should be posted to the Flight Safety Manager, via his personal mailbox. The Accident Prevention and Flight Safety Programme may only function if relevant information is reported and communicated to all operations personnel. The appointed person responsible for managing the Accident Prevention and Flight Safety Programme is the Flight Safety Manager, who reports directly to the Postholder Flight Operations. Information Resources Source Frequency Occurrence Reports (incl. Anonymous Reports) As specified in the OM A, Chapter 11 Handling, Notifying and On receipt Official Accident / Incident Investigation Reports Reporting Occurrences BFU On issue of reports similar to the operated aeroplane and/or operation specifications Operational Directives FOCA On receipt Flight Data Acquisition Flight Data Monitoring Regular acc.

Either the customer makes a request by telephone or on written basis or presents himself directly at the counter desk. First of all, information is required: What are the customer needs, what is Sample- Company able to offer? So the counter desk clerk tries to fit the customer s request with the capability of Sample-Company. Either a voucher is sold and handed over to the customer, or the tickets are sold after determining the flight data (date, aeroplane, pilot). Tbd by Sample-Company Whenever the date is fixed, the aeroplane and a pilot have to be scheduled. The flight route is either a standard route, or has to be planned in detail by the pilot. In both cases, the pilot is responsible for proper data acquisition (flight preparation such as Meteo, Notam, Kosif, Fuel, Mass and Balance, Performance, Restrictions ). For performance calculations refer to OM-B, Chapter 2 and 4. The pilot is also responsible that all required documentation is carried on board (see 8.1.12). When there is no ATS flight plan required for the flight, then a flight notification has to be deposited at the C-Office, Form to be designed by Sample-Company. The aeroplane is prepared for the flight by (Tbd by Sample-Company). The customers are then presented to the pilot, who accompanies them directly to the aeroplane. They are seated according his instructions and then they have to be properly briefed for the flight. The flight is fully executed at pilot s discretion. After landing, the pilot accompanies the customers at least outside of the airside area. Issue 1, Effective Date: 1.1.2010 23/65

OM A OPERATIONAL CONTROL AND SUPERVISION 2 The pilot is then responsible that all the required postflight duties (documentation, aeroplane, Tbd by Sample-Company) are completed. 2.5 Powers of the Authority The competent aviation authority (FOCA), whilst performing their duties to supervise and inspect flight operations or maintenance activities has the power to inspect flight or maintenance activities in our company. Those members of the aviation authority must be granted access to all documents which are relevant to flight safety and maintenance. Whenever such an inspection, including visits of the offices, should be requested by a member of the authority, he shall be accompanied by a competent member of the flight operations or the maintenance department.

OM A SAFETY & QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM 3 3 SAFETY & QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM The relation between a Safety Management System and a Q-System is explained in 3.2.1. It is recommended to establish a separate Safety & Quality Manual. Respective guidance material SQMS Basic Structure for Operators is provided on the FOCA webpage. If the Safety & Quality System is documented in such a separate Manual, the OM A chapter 3 nevertheless must consist at least of: (a) Safety & Quality policy; (b) A description of the organisation of the quality system; and (c) Allocation of duties and responsibilities. To facilitate the amendment of the Quality System the content of the following chapters 3.1 to 3.2 is identical to the first chapters of the separate S&Q-Manual The Safety & Quality Management System (SQMS) is defined in a separate SQMS- Manual. The following paragraphs provide a short overview over this SQMS. 3.1 Safety and Quality Policy, Organization and Documentation 3.1.1 Safety and Quality Policy see AMC OPS 1.035 (2.2) see ICAO SMM, Doc. 9859 (2nd Ed./2009), chapter 8.4 Management Commitment and Responsibility see NPA 2008-22c, OR.Gen.200 (1) Management System see NPA 2008-22c, AMC to OR.Gen.200(a)(1) Management System Safety Policy see NPA 2008-22c, AMC 1 to OR.GEN.200(b): Size, Nature and Complexity of the Activity See Hudson's Refined Just Culture Model (Origin: Shell "Hearts & Minds") http://www.flightsafety.org/gain/just_culture.pdf see Reason's Decision Tree for Determining the Culpability of Unsafe Acts (Origin: Shell "Hearts & Minds") http://www.flightsafety.org/gain/just_culture.pdf Describe the safety and quality policy. This policy must also express the commitment to the standards listed in 3.1.1.1 Relevant external Standards and 3.1.4 SQMS-Documentation. A safety policy must include a commitment to - achieve the highest safety standards - observe all applicable legal requirements and international standards and best effective practices - provide appropriate human and financial resources - enforce safety as one primary responsibility of all managers - ensure that the policy is understood, implemented and maintained at all levels. The policy should ensure the following five aspects of a positive culture: Issue 1, Effective Date: 1.1.2010 25/65

OM A SAFETY & QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM 3 Informed Culture Those who manage an operate the system have current knowledge about the human, technical, organisational and environmental factors that determine the safety of the system as a whole Just Culture An atmosphere of trust in which people are encouraged (even rewarded) for providing essential safety-related information, but in which they are also clear about where the line must be drawn between acceptable and unacceptable behavior Aspects of a positive Culture Learning Culture An organisation must possess the willingness and the competence to draw the right conclusions From its safety information system and the will to implement major reforms Reporting Culture An organisational climate in which people are prepared to report their errors and near-misses Flexible Culture A culture in which an organisation is able to reconfigure themselves in the face of high tempo operations or certain kinds of danger often shifting from the conventional hierarchical mode to a flatter mode based on: Reason (1997): The components of safety culture 3.1.1.1 Relevant external Standards Sample-Company. complies with the following legal requirements EU-OPS 1 / JAR-OPS 3 JAR-FCL 1 / JAR-FCL 2 EASA Regulation No 2042/2003 Part-M ICAO Safety Management Manual Swiss Air Law FOCA Circular Advisories 3.1.1.2 Quality Objectives (Policy Deployment) Define how the safety and quality policy is deployed within the company. Preferably this process should be combined with the business planning and steering process of the organisation, where the definition and communication of annual goals are part of it. The corporate commitment to safety from the highest organisational level is essential including the non punitive policy for disciplinary matters. To be effective, corporate goals should always be followed by an action plan (who, what, until when?). It is recommended to synchronise the goal setting with the management evaluation In December, the Accountable Manager fixes annual company goals and the budget based on the safety & quality policy and the yearly adjusted strategy.. The company goals are the basis for the agreement of individual goals during the yearly employee's talk in January.. Any kind of company specific standard of safety performance must respect the safety and quality policy statement. Issue 1, Effective Date: 1.1.2010 26/65
