International Civil Aviation Organization FLTOPSP/WG/2-WP/19 27/04/2015 WORKING PAPER FLIGHT OPERATIONS PANEL WORKING GROUP SECOND MEETING (FLTOPSP/WG/2) Rome Italy, 4 to 8 May 2015 Agenda Item 4 : Active work programme items 4.7: Requirements on flight deck activities, checklist and standard operating procedures design (HITS Status Report) (Presented by Atholl Buchan, Rapporteur) SUMMARY This WP provides an overview of the status of the HITS-SG Action by the FLTOPSP/WG/2 is in paragraph 3. COORDINATION IATA Pilot Training Task Force (PTTF) 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Under job card OPSP004 the FLTOPSP was tasked by the ANC to review flight deck activities, checklist and standard operating procedures design, taking into account increased use of automation in the cockpit. The task includes applying threat and error management (TEM) and safety management principles with specific consideration of man-machine interface, automation interface and the human recognition of faults occurring in system automation. 1.2 The expected deliverables are proposed amendments or revisions to Annex 6, PANS- OPS, PANS-TRAINING, PANS-ATM (7 pages) FLTOPSP WG02 WP-19 AI-4.7 HITS Status Report.docx
FLTOPSP/WG/2-WP/19-2 - 2. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION 2.1 The task was assigned after the High Level Safety Conference (HLSC) of 2010 where, due to several accidents, safety issues relating to flight deck activities had been identified including standard operating procedures and checklist usage. HLSC recommended a review of all applicable and associated flight deck activities and procedures design. 2.2 The meeting of FLTOPS Panel 1 requested further action on this and subsequently the IATA Pilot Training Task Force accepted the task. 2.3 Two PTTF conference calls have been held to date where this task has been discussed. Primarily it has been decided, in the light of other documentation recently becoming available on this topic, to address specifically the task of the Pilot Monitoring skills. 2.4 A draft manual outline has been created and is attached as to this WP. The manual is in the early stages of creation and is an outline showing the proposed content and subjects considered. 3. ACTION BY THE OPSP/WG/2 3.1 The FLTOPSP/WG/2 is invited to: a) Note and review the contents of this paper; b) Note and review ; c) Provide further comment and guidance where necessary -----
FLTOPSP/WG/2-WP/19 APPENDIX A Chapter 1 Table of Contents Introduction Monitoring as Part of Situational Awareness Is monitoring the result of situational awareness or is situational awareness the result of monitoring? Effective pilot monitoring considered key in the prevention of and recovery from Loss of Control incidents/accidents Abbreviations List of abbreviations from UK CAA document and Flight Safety Foundation References List of reference materials on pilot monitoring Chapter 1 What is Monitoring? (The theory behind pilot monitoring (brief overview)) Fundamental aspects of monitoring skills in terms of perception and cognition Describe different monitoring patterns (in relation to different phases of flight) Understanding the barriers to effective monitoring (page 15 FSF) / Understanding the barriers to effective monitoring is essential to develop specific countermeasures to mitigate those barriers through the design of training, procedures, practices, organizational policy and aircraft systems (page 15 FSF) (The following are some comments made by TF during meeting in Dubai) Statement: the group recommends conceptually connecting or integrating the pilot monitoring issue with TEM. (no need to elaborate on the how ) Somewhere in the intro we need to mention that if an operator wants to train something, a clear airline policy on this duty is a prerequisite (somewhere in our introduction). Chapter 2 The PF s Role? Or PF man-machine interface training What are possible differences between PF and PM when it comes to system monitoring Describe the split of responsibilities and crew coordination techniques Crew communication procedures Monitoring responsibilities as part of crew briefing Brief PM of flight path plans During flight path briefing encourage PM to call out any deviation from the debriefing plan Standardized cockpit crew communication by challenging and acknowledging monitoring actions Chapter 3 The PM s Role? Or man-machine interface training Describe responsibilities as applicable in CRM (7 pages) FLTOPSP WG02 WP-19 AI-4.7 HITS Status Report.docx
FLTOPSP/WG/2-WP/19-2 - Training the PM on how to react/act when the PF is not doing what he is supposed to do. (subject to nationality, culture, age groups, experience, etc.) Chapter 4 Monitoring Levels Here we are looking at the level of monitoring, rather than a specific person, PF on automation or without automation, a trainee in the cockpit, etc.) Monitoring the aircraft Monitoring each other Monitoring with all senses (monitoring is not only about eye tracking (hearing, smelling, etc.) Monitoring tasks (list of all monitoring tasks) Chapter 5 Training Monitoring Skills In ab-initio training In recurrent training Chapter 6 How to Instruct Pilot Monitoring Chapter 7 How to Assess Pilot Monitoring Skills Pilot monitoring and core competencies??? Is it sufficiently covered by the core competencies or should it be a separate skill set. Chapter 8 Monitoring as Part of Situational Awareness Chapter 2 Introduction Good information already in the CAA UK and FSF documents. The scope of this work is to provide more practical tool.
