A discussion providing an overview of ATO goals based on the 2012 changes to the QA order.
Data is QC/OSA driven. These are what drive the top 5 (Corrective Action Plan) each year as well Webinars including 2014/2015's Parachute Ops, WX, and VFR/IFR conflict resolutions.
In order to further these initiatives the ATO will provide:
QC training
Safety tools and training
Support of PFS (Partnership for safety) and Monthly Safety Awareness Discussions
Recurrent Training (Discussed ways of improving these rollouts based on time constraints and keeping things more relevant to specific facility types)
Provide tools to the Local Safety Councils
Promote Safety Reporting (ATSAP)
