ICAO Audit USOAP Results - India

ICAO Audit Of India Finds Fault With Safety, Training

ICAO told India that it was below world averages on primary aviation legislation, safety oversight of airlines and the qualifications and training of its technical personnel

Much of ICAO’s report focuses on inadequate staffing levels to properly oversee India’s rapidly expanding commercial aircraft market.

No defined training program has been set for technical personnel performing safety oversight.

audit by ICAO, This report will be posted after a draft version is circulated to and

discussed with the Federal government and the safety bodies with ICAO having the last word over as to its contents or conclusions.

A spokesperson for CASA confirmed that the debriefing identified areas where Australia doesn’t conform to the various rules or annexes of ICAO but declined to give specifics.

Republic of Korea 100 % of compliant with all SARPS

SIGNIFICANT SAFETY CONCERNS (SSC)

11 States out of 136 Audited States have SSC They are published in the Web

Most of the States are in Africa Bangladesh and Nepal added to the List recently

Almost all SSC have been raised based on CE-6 If a SSC is raised, Corrective Action Plan would be accepted only if

the ‘wrong doing or not doing’ is immediately addressed or corrected. (suspension of operations or cancellation of licenses etc)

SSC will lead to Bans/Restrictions being imposed by other States
