ICAO UNIVERSAL SAFETY OVERSIGHT AUDIT PROGRAMME
Final Report on the Safety Oversight Audit
of the Civil Aviation System of the United Kingdom
(3 to 20 February 2009)
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
1.1.1 The 32nd Session of the ICAO Assembly (Assembly Resolution A32-11 refers) resolved the
establishment of the ICAO Universal Safety Oversight Audit Programme (USOAP), comprising regular,
mandatory, systematic and harmonized safety audits of all Contracting States. The mandate for regular audits
foresaw the continuation of the Programme, and the term ―safety audits‖ suggested that all safety-related areas
should be audited. The expansion of the Programme ―at the appropriate time‖, as recommended by the 1997
Directors General of Civil Aviation Conference on a Global Strategy for Safety Oversight, had thus been
accepted as an integral part of the future of the Programme.
1.1.2 The 35th Session of the ICAO Assembly considered a proposal of the Council for the
continuation and expansion of the USOAP as of 2005 and resolved that the Programme be expanded to cover
all safety-related Annexes to the Convention on International Civil Aviation, hereinafter referred to as the
―Chicago Convention‖ (Assembly Resolution A35-6 refers). The Assembly also requested the
Secretary General to adopt a comprehensive systems approach for the conduct of safety oversight audits.
1.1.3 Assembly Resolution A35-6 further directed the Secretary General to ensure that the
comprehensive systems approach maintain as core elements the safety provisions contained in Annex 1 ―
Personnel Licensing, Annex 6 ― Operation of Aircraft, Annex 8 ― Airworthiness of Aircraft, Annex 11 ―
Air Traffic Services, Annex 13 ― Aircraft Accident and Incident Investigation and Annex 14 ― Aerodromes;
to make all aspects of the auditing process visible to Contracting States; to make the final safety oversight audit
reports available to all Contracting States; and also to provide access to all relevant information derived from
the Audit Findings and Differences Database (AFDD) through the secure website of ICAO.
1.1.4 In accordance with Assembly Resolution A35-6, safety oversight audit reports have been
restructured to reflect the critical elements of a safety oversight system, as presented in ICAO Doc 9734 —
Safety Oversight Manual, Part A — The Establishment and Management of a State’s Safety Oversight System.
ICAO Contracting States, in their effort to establish and implement an effective safety oversight system, need
to consider these critical elements.
1.2 ICAO audit team composition
1.2.1 The safety oversight audit team was composed of Mr. Nicolas Rallo, team leader, primary
aviation legislation (LEG)/civil aviation organization (ORG)/aircraft accident and incident investigation (AIG);
Ms. Elizabeth Gnehm, team member, LEG/ORG/ airworthiness of aircraft (AIR); Mr. Hatem Dibian, team
member, AIR; Mr. Cristian Olinescu, team member, personnel licensing (PEL)/aircraft operations (OPS);
Ms. Janet McLaughlin, team member, dangerous goods; Mr. Thierry Allain, team member, OPS;
Mr. Dhiraj Ramdoyal, team member, air navigation services (ANS); Ms. Siew Huang Tay, team member,
- 2 -

ANS; Mr. Francesco Preti, team member, on-the-job training (OJT)/ANS; Mr. Wang Yong, team member,
aerodromes (AGA); and Mr. Egon Grösslein, team member, AGA.
1.3 Acknowledgements
1.3.1 ICAO expresses its sincere appreciation for the assistance provided to the audit team during
the preparation and conduct of the audit. The professionalism and enthusiasm of all personnel who interacted
with the audit team greatly contributed to the success of the audit mission.
2. OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES OF THE AUDIT MISSION
2.1 The comprehensive systems approach for the conduct of safety oversight audits consists of
three phases. In the first phase, the level of implementation of Annex provisions is assessed and differences
from ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) are identified for each Contracting State through
a review of a duly completed State Aviation Activity Questionnaire (SAAQ) and Compliance Checklists (CCs)
for all safety-related Annexes, as well as through a review of documents developed by the State to assist it in
implementing SARPs and in maintaining an effective safety oversight system. In the second phase, the State
being audited is visited by an ICAO audit team to validate the information provided by the State and to conduct
an on-site audit of the State’s overall capability for safety oversight. The third phase of the audit process
consists of the activities following the completion of the on-site audit.
2.2 The safety oversight audit of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
(hereafter referred to as the United Kingdom or UK) was carried out from 3 to 20 February 2009 in accordance
with the standard auditing procedures provided for in ICAO Doc 9735 — Safety Oversight Audit Manual and
the revised Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) as approved by the ICAO Council on 29 November 2006
(C-DEC 179/12 refers) and agreed to on 19 May 2008 between the United Kingdom and ICAO. The audit was
carried out with the objective of fulfilling the mandate given by the Assembly which requires ICAO to conduct
a safety oversight audit of all Contracting States (Assembly Resolutions A32-11 and A35-6 refer), reviewing a
State’s compliance with ICAO SARPs set out in all safety related Annexes and their associated guidance
material, as well as with related Procedures for Air Navigation Services (PANS). Furthermore, the objective
was also to offer advice, as applicable, to the United Kingdom in implementing these provisions.
2.3 The audit team reviewed the SAAQs and the CCs submitted by the United Kingdom prior to
the on-site audit in order to have a preliminary understanding of the civil aviation system established in the
State, to determine its various functions as well as to assess the status of implementation of relevant Annex
provisions. Information provided and assessed prior to the conduct of the audit was validated during the on-site
audit phase. In this regard, particular attention was given to the presence of an adequate organization,
processes, procedures and programmes established and maintained by the United Kingdom to assist it in
fulfilling its safety oversight obligations.
2.4 On 15 July 2002, the European Community adopted Regulation (EC) No 1592/2002 of the
European Parliament and of the Council on common rules in the field of civil aviation and establishing a
European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). This regulation provides for the transfer of regulatory
competencies in the fields of airworthiness, continuing airworthiness and environmental certification from the
Member States of the European Union (EU) to EASA. On 10 March 2005, the United Kingdom advised ICAO
in writing of the transfer of such competencies to EASA.
- 3 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
2.5 Since the transfer of competencies to EASA reflects on the scope of the ICAO safety oversight
audits under the comprehensive systems approach, ICAO performed an initial audit of EASA, from
29 November to 2 December 2005. On 20 February 2008, the European Community adopted Regulation (EC)
No 216/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council, repealing Regulation (EC) No 1592/2002 of the
European Parliament and of the Council. Regulation (EC) No 216/2008 extends the scope of competence of
EASA to pilot licensing, aircraft operations and aircraft used by third-country operators. Taking into
consideration the extension of the scope of competence of EASA and additional changes within the
organization since the initial safety oversight audit of 2005 by ICAO, ICAO performed a second audit of
EASA from 23 to 25 April 2008. The EASA audit results are available to all Contracting States on the ICAO
USOAP secure website (http://www.icao.int/soa). It should be noted that the United Kingdom will always
maintain the responsibility for all audit results that are derived from the audits carried out on EASA from time
to time. As a result, the latest EASA safety oversight audit report should be reviewed together with this report.
2.6 The audit results including the findings and recommendations contained in this report reflect
the capabilities and limitations of the civil aviation system of the United Kingdom as assessed by the audit
team. They are thus based on evidence gathered during interviews by the audit team with the technical experts
of the United Kingdom and background information provided by such personnel, review and analysis of civil
aviation legislation, specific regulations, and related documentation and file records. Considering the time that
was available to conduct the audit and the fact that the safety oversight audit team members could only review
and analyse information and documentation made available by the State, it is possible that some safety
concerns may not have been identified during the audit. The findings and recommendations related to each
audit area are found in Appendix 1 to this report.
3. AUDIT RESULTS
3.1 The United Kingdom as an ICAO Contracting State — An Overview
3.1.1 The United Kingdom (UK), as an ICAO Contracting State, is made up of three ―components‖:
the UK Main (formed by the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland), the UK Overseas
Territories, and the Crown Dependencies. A constitutional monarchy, with the Queen as the Head of State, the
United Kingdom has 14 Overseas Territories under its sovereignty. In addition, the Crown Dependencies
comprising of the Isle of Man (IoM) and the Channel Island bailiwicks of Jersey and Guernsey are possessions
of The Crown in Right of the United Kingdom (as opposed to Overseas Territories or colonies of the United
Kingdom), which exercises sovereignty over them.
3.1.2 The UK Government remains responsible for the foreign affairs and defence of both the
Overseas Territories and the Crown Dependencies. The UK Department for Transport (DfT) is the primary
government body responsible for civil aviation in the United Kingdom and for upholding the United
Kingdom’s compliance with the Chicago Convention. As such, the DfT establishes the overall aviation policy
across all three components of the United Kingdom in cooperation with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office
(FCO) for the Overseas Territories and the Ministry of Justice for the Crown Dependencies.
3.1.3 Each Crown Dependency has a Chief Minister as Head of Government. However, as they are
possessions of the British Crown, they are not sovereign nations in their own right. The power to pass
legislation affecting the Crown Dependencies rests with their own legislative assemblies, but most ―local‖
legislation has to receive the approval of the ―Queen in Council,‖ in effect, the Privy Council in London, with a
UK minister acting as the Privy Counsellor with responsibility for the Crown Dependencies. In some cases, the
UK Parliament has the authority to legislate on behalf of the Crown Dependencies.

3.1.4 The United Kingdom is a Member State of the EU, but the Crown Dependencies — which
decided not to join the European Community (EC) when the United Kingdom joined it — and the UK
Overseas Territories (except Gibraltar) are not part of the EU. An MOU has been concluded between the
United Kingdom and each Crown Dependency regarding aviation safety regulation and it outlines the
responsibilities of each party for meeting the United Kingdom’s international obligations as an ICAO
Contracting State to ensure that the provisions of the Chicago Convention and all ICAO SARPs are
implemented in each Crown Dependency.
3.1.5 The 14 UK Overseas Territories are: Anguilla, Bermuda, British Indian Ocean Territory,
British Antarctic Territory, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Falkland Islands, Gibraltar, Montserrat,
Pitcairn Islands, St Helena and its Dependencies (Ascension Island and Tristan da Cunha), South Georgia and
South Sandwich Islands, Sovereign Base Areas of Akrotiri and Dhekelia, and Turks and Caicos Islands. In the
main, the UK Overseas Territories have separate constitutions with elected governments which are responsible
for the day-to-day administration. External affairs, safety, defence, and aviation security are the responsibilities
of the British Government. Each Overseas Territory has its own legal system independent of the UK Main. The
Queen appoints a representative in each Overseas Territory to exercise her executive power. In territories with
a permanent population, a Governor is appointed by the Queen on the advice of the British Government. The
role of the Governor is to act as the de facto Head of State, and he or she is usually responsible for appointing
the Head of Government and senior political officials in the territory. The Governor is also responsible for
liaising with the UK Government.
3.1.6 To provide a cohesive system of civil aviation safety regulation in the UK Overseas
Territories, the United Kingdom established on 1 April 2003 Air Safety Support International Ltd (ASSI) as a
wholly owned subsidiary of the UK Civil Aviation Authority (UKCAA) and funded by the UK DfT. The
company’s remit, through Directions from the UK Secretary of State to the UKCAA, is:
a) to audit safety regulation in each Overseas Territory;
b) to provide assistance, training and advice to the Overseas Territories;
c) to carry out safety regulation where designated by the Governor;
d) to draft amendments to the Air Navigation (Overseas Territories) Order
(AN(OT)O) 2001 (currently the 2007 Order); and
e) to produce the means of compliance with the legislation.
3.2 The UK Main
3.2.1 Critical element 1 ─ Primary aviation legislation
―The provision of a comprehensive and effective aviation law consistent with the environment
and complexity of the State’s aviation activity, and compliant with the requirements contained
in the Convention on International Civil Aviation.‖
3.2.1.1 The principal sources of UK law are the UK national legislation, Crown prerogative powers,
and European legislation.
a) UK national legislation is composed of primary legislation enacted by Parliament and
secondary legislation made up of Orders or Regulations enacted under the enabling
powers provided by the primary legislation.
- 5 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
b) The Crown retains certain prerogative powers that are, in practice, exercised through
Ministers on behalf of the Crown and which may be used in the absence of Statutory
Instruments.
c) EC legislation includes Regulations which, general in application, are binding in their
entirety and directly applicable in the United Kingdom, and Directives which must be
implemented in the national legislation but are binding in respect of the result to be
achieved.
3.2.1.2 Primary legislation in the United Kingdom is drafted and amended according to a procedure
involving substantial scrutiny by both Houses of Parliament in several stages. Typically, such procedure takes
several months, except in rare and exceptional cases. Many Acts of Parliament authorize the drafting of
secondary legislation (Statutory Instruments) addressing specific issues and outline the applicable procedure
for the promulgation of said legislation.
3.2.1.3 The primary aviation legislation in the United Kingdom is the Civil Aviation Act 1982, (or the
―Act‖), last amended by the Civil Aviation Act 2006. The Act has 110 sections divided into five parts:
1) Administration; 2) Aerodromes and Other Land; 3) Regulation of Civil Aviation; 4) Aircraft; and
5) Miscellaneous and General, along with 16 Schedules, each related to a specific Section. In addition, the
primary aviation legislation is supplemented by certain provisions in the Transport Act 2000.
3.2.1.4 Section 60 of the Act provides for the making of an Order in Council, referred to as an Air
Navigation Order (ANO), in order to carry out the Chicago Convention and its Annexes. An Order in Council
is made in the name of the Queen by the Privy Council (Queen-in-Council). When it establishes a legal
requirement, an Order in Council is considered another form of Statutory Instrument that is subject to UK
parliamentary scrutiny. An Order in Council is an important means of giving the force of law to more
significant executive orders. It is also used to extend civil aviation legislation to the Overseas Territories as
well as the Crown Dependencies. Under subsection (3) of Section 60, an ANO may contain provisions
stipulating, inter alia, the manner and conditions for the issuance, validation, renewal, extension or variation as
well as cancellation, suspension and surrender of certificates, licences and other required documents, and
―generally for securing the safety, efficiency and regularity of air navigation.‖
3.2.1.5 The Air Navigation Order 2005 (―ANO 2005‖), last amended in 2008, constitutes the highest
level of civil aviation regulation. Divided into 14 parts and 15 Schedules, it includes provisions on the
certification and supervision of commercial air transport operators, airworthiness and equipment of aircraft,
flight crew licensing, operation of aircraft, fatigue of air crew, aerodromes and air traffic services (ATS). As
specified in the Act, any ANO or amendment comes into force through the negative resolution procedure, i.e. a
draft legislation is presented to Parliament and in the absence of any objection, it comes into force after not less
than 21 days.
3.2.1.6 The UKCAA was established under Section 2 of the Act, and its functions are defined in
Section 3 of the same Act. The power to issue Directives is provided for in various articles of the ANO 2005
pertaining to each technical area. In addition, Article 167 of the ANO 2005 identifies the UKCAA as the
―national aviation authority‖ and the ―competent authority‖ of the United Kingdom for the purposes of
Regulation (EC) No. 216/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 February 2008 on
common rules in the field of civil aviation and establishing a European Aviation Safety Agency (repealing
Regulation (EC) No 1592/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 July 2002).
3.2.1.7 Pursuant to Section 60 of the Act and Articles 24, 90, 144 and 145 of the ANO 2005, persons
authorized by the UKCAA have the right of access to any aerodrome, ―any place where an aircraft has landed,‖
- 6 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
―any building or place from which an air traffic control service is provided‖ or ―any factory‖ for the purpose of
inspecting the aerodrome, an aircraft or documents. Under Article 144 of the ANO 2005, the UKCAA may
detain an aircraft if it appears intended or likely to be flown in contravention of the specified safety
requirements or be ―in a condition unfit for flight.‖ Article 24 of the ANO 2005 grants further access and
inspection powers for airworthiness purposes by allowing an authorized person ―to go upon any aerodrome or
enter any aircraft factory.‖ Article 88 requires the operator or commander of an aircraft to present to an
authorized person relevant documents and records, while Article 90 grants an authorized person the power to
inspect and copy such documents and records.
3.2.1.8 Section 61 of the Act makes infringement of a provision of an ANO a criminal offence. In
addition, Article 148 and Schedule 14 of the ANO 2005 outline the enforcement actions and penalties to be
imposed on persons who contravene the ANO 2005 or regulations including the EC Regulations. The
responsibility for enforcement has been given to the UKCAA by the DfT. Additionally, Article 92 authorizes
the UKCAA to provisionally suspend or vary any certificate, licence or other document issued, granted or
having effect under ANO 2005.
3.2.1.9 The United Kingdom ratified Article 83 bis of the Chicago Convention on 16 March 1981 to
allow for the transfer of certain functions and duties from the State of Registry to the State of the Operator.
Articles 8(1), 20(1), 26(3) and 55(1) of the ANO 2005 establish the recognition of certificates and licences
issued by the State of Registry or the State of Operator. The definition for State of the Operator in the Order is
the same as the ICAO definition, with the added condition that the State of Registry has, by agreement with the
State of the Operator, agreed to transfer to it its functions and duties as State of Registry in respect of that
aircraft in relation to airworthiness, aircraft radio equipment, flight crew licensing, and radio licensing. UK-
registered aircraft are not permitted to have certificates of airworthiness, radio equipment approvals, flight crew
licences or radio licences issued by (another) State of Operator.
3.2.1.10 With respect to personnel licensing, the essential legal provisions are outlined in the
ANO 2005, Part 3 (―Airworthiness and equipment of the aircraft‖), Part 4 (―Aircraft crew and licensing‖), and
Part 10 (―Licensing of air traffic controllers‖). The ANO 2005 also requires licensed aviation personnel to be
medically fit and qualified according to the established aeronautical licensing requirements.
3.2.1.11 With respect to aircraft operations, Regulation (EC) No 1008/2008 of the European Parliament
and of the Council of 24 September 2008 on common rules for the operation of air services in the Community
requires that ―no undertaking established in the Community shall be permitted to carry by air passengers, mail
and/or cargo for remuneration and/or hire unless it has been granted the appropriate operating licence.‖ The
issuance and validity of an operating licence are dependent upon the possession of a valid air operator
certificate (AOC) issued in accordance with the applicable regulation.
a) For commercial air transport by aeroplane, the applicable regulation is the EU OPS (i.e.
Commission Regulation (EC) No 859/2008 of 20 August 2008 amending Council
Regulation (EEC) No 3922/91 of 16 December 1991).
b) For commercial air transport by helicopter, the legal basis is outlined in the ANO 2005.
c) With respect to the transport of dangerous goods by air, the ANO 2005 in Article 70(1)
authorizes the Secretary of State to make dangerous goods-related regulations.
3.2.1.12 With respect to airworthiness and maintenance of aircraft, the adoption on 15 July 2002 of
Regulation (EC) No 1592/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council (recently replaced by
Regulation (EC) No 216/2008) paved the way for a centralized EC system of air safety and environment
regulations and for the establishment of EASA, which was launched in September 2003. (Note: More details
- 7 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
on EASA and its areas of competence can be found in the ICAO final safety oversight audit report of EASA.)
In addition, subsection 3 of Section 60 of the Act provides for the making of an Air Navigation Order with
provisions on the registration of aircraft in the United Kingdom, prohibition for aircraft to fly without a valid
certificate of airworthiness and unless the maintenance and repair requirements specified in the Order have
been met, and prohibition for aircraft to take off or land in the United Kingdom without a valid noise
certificate.
3.2.1.13 In the field of air navigation services, the Transport Act 2000, in Schedule 8 (―Amendments
About Air Traffic‖), Part II (―Air Navigation Services‖), Chapter 8 amends Section 72 of the Act which puts
an end to the duty of the UKCAA to provide air navigation services. Accordingly, the National Air Traffic
Services Limited (NATS), formerly a wholly owned subsidiary of the UKCAA, was partially privatized in
2001 and given the sole responsibility to provide air navigation services for en-route purposes.
3.2.1.14 The UKCAA is given responsibility for the safety and economic regulation of NATS and
responsibility for the airspace policy of the United Kingdom as a whole. Under Part I, Section 2(1) of the
Transport Act 2000, the UKCAA must exercise its functions ―so as to maintain a high level of safety in the
provision of air traffic services.‖
3.2.1.15 Pursuant to Section 66(1) of the Transport Act 2000, the Secretary of State for the
Environment, Transport and the Regions assigned to the UKCAA, under the Civil Aviation Authority (Air
Navigation) Directions 2001 (as varied in 2004), the duty to ―discharge the responsibilities of the UK
Meteorological Authority‖ in accordance with Annex 3 to the Chicago Convention as well as to ―be
responsible for the form and content of the UK Aeronautical Information Publication (AIP) and ensure that an
Aeronautical Information Service (AIS) is provided in accordance with international obligations.‖ It is noted
however that the Directorate of Airspace Policy (DAP) of the UKCAA also ensures both regulatory/safety
oversight and service provision functions in the areas of PANS-OPS and Aeronautical Charts.
3.2.1.16 Parts 9 to 12 of the ANO 2005 govern ATS, the licensing of air traffic controllers (ATCOs),
flight information service (FIS) and the licensing of FIS Officers as well as ATS equipment. In particular,
Part 9, Article 100 states that the UKCAA ―shall grant an air traffic control approval if it is satisfied that the
applicant is competent, having regard to his organisation, staffing, equipment, maintenance and other
arrangements, to provide a service which is safe for use by aircraft.‖ Schedules 11 and 12 of the ANO 2005 lay
down details about the licensing of ATCOs and ATS equipment, respectively.
3.2.1.17 With respect to the provision of search and rescue (SAR) services, under the Crown’s
prerogative powers, the Secretary of State for Transport (DfT) is responsible for civil aeronautical SAR, and by
agreement, has delegated some responsibilities to the Ministry of Defense (MoD) under paragraph 5.2.1 of the
SAR Framework for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (April 2008). Similarly, under
the Crown’s prerogative powers, the Secretary of State for Defense arranges for the UK Royal Air Force (RAF)
to provide aeronautical SAR capability and establishes the Aeronautical Rescue Coordination Centre (ARCC)
at the RAF station in Kinloss.
3.2.1.18 With respect to AIS, ATS, CNS and MET, the United Kingdom is also directly legislated by
the four Single European Sky (SES) Regulations of the European Parliament and the Council promulgated on
10 March 2004. These are:
a) Regulation (EC) No 549/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of
10 March 2004, which laid down the framework of the creation of the Single European
Sky;
- 8 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
b) Regulation (EC) No 550/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of
10 March 2004 on the provision of services in the Single European Sky;
c) Regulation (EC) No 551/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of
10 March 2004 on the organization and the use of the airspace in the Single European
Sky, and
d) Regulation (EC) No 552/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of
10 March 2004 on the interoperability of the European air traffic management network.
3.2.1.18.1 In addition, pursuant to Regulation (EC) No. 550/2004, the European Commission issued the
Commission Regulation (EC) No 1315/2007 of 8 November 2007 addressing the requirements for safety
oversight in air traffic management and amending Regulation (EC) No 2096/2005 of 20 December 2005.
3.2.1.19 With respect to aerodromes, the ANO 2005 in Part 13 lays down the basic legal provisions
regarding the establishment and operation of aerodromes. Article 126 of the ANO 2005 requires that in the
United Kingdom, specified flights for the purpose of public transport of passengers or of instruction in flying
take place only at a licensed aerodrome or a Government aerodrome. The issuance of an aerodrome licence,
including submission of an aerodrome manual, is addressed by Articles 128 and 166 of the ANO 2005.
Article 126 of the ANO 2005 requires that helicopter operations be conducted at, from or to a licensed facility
in accordance with Annex 14, Volume II to the Chicago Convention. Regarding the aerodrome manual, the
information and instructions to be included are described in Schedule 13 of the ANO 2005. Meanwhile,
Sections 45 and 46 of the Act empower the Secretary of State to impose prohibitions or restrictions on the use
of any area of land or water ―for purpose of securing safety at aerodromes‖ and ―to exercise control over land
in the interests of civil aviation.‖
3.2.1.20 With respect to aircraft accident and incident investigations, Section 75 of the Act authorizes
the Secretary of State to make regulations ―for the investigation of any accident arising out of or in the course
of air navigation and either occurring in the United Kingdom or occurring elsewhere to aircraft registered in the
United Kingdom.‖ It also provides for the implementation of the requirements and for the imposition of
penalties for non-compliance with the regulations. Meanwhile, Article 142 of the ANO 2005 addresses
mandatory and voluntary reporting of occurrences.
3.2.2 Critical element 2 ─ Specific operating regulations
―The provision of adequate regulations to address, at a minimum, national requirements
emanating from the primary aviation legislation and providing for standardized operational
procedures, equipment and infrastructures (including safety management and training
systems), in conformance with the Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) contained
in the Annexes to the Convention on International Civil Aviation.
Note.— The term ‘regulations’ is used in a generic sense to include instructions, rules, edicts,
directives, sets of laws, requirements, policies, orders, etc.”
3.2.2.1 The UKCAA develops and proposes changes to the ANO and regulations, but does not have
the power to actually amend the regulations or legislation. Promulgation and/or amendments of UK regulations
(including the ANO) are made by Order in Council authorized by the Act or any other enactment.
3.2.2.2 Under the ANO 2005, the UKCAA has discretionary powers to issue an approval only if it is
satisfied that the applicant is competent. To support the evaluation of an applicant’s competency, the UKCAA
has published requirements for the issuance of approvals in various Civil Aviation Publications (CAPs). When
- 9 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
a CAP contains requirements that are based on ICAO SARPs, an ICAO compliance statement is added to the
CAP to indicate that the UKCAA will use the document as a reference in exercising its discretionary powers to
ensure effective implementation of the international standards.
3.2.2.3 With respect to compliance with the Annexes to the Chicago Convention, specifically
Annexes 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 14, 15 and 18 for which the UKCAA retains responsibility, the Secretary of
Transport has issued the Civil Aviation Authority (Chicago Convention) Directions 2007, which states that
―the CAA will consider whether it is necessary to amend United Kingdom aviation legislation to ensure
appropriate implementation of an ICAO provision,‖ or if appropriate, the notification of any differences.
Where the UKCAA considers an amendment to be necessary, the CAA Legal Services Directorate is instructed
to draft the relevant proposal for submission to the Secretary of State.
3.2.2.3.1 The Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) is responsible for Annex 13 to the Chicago
Convention and sends instructions directly to the Legal Branch at the DfT.
3.2.2.3.2 The responsibility for Annex 16 to the Chicago Convention lies with the Aviation
Environmental Policy Division under the DfT but implemented by EU Regulations.
3.2.2.3.3 The UK SAR Strategic Committee is responsible for Annex 12 to the Chicago Convention.
3.2.2.3.4 The United Kingdom has not established formal requirements about the specific units of
measurement to be used in air and ground operations in accordance with Annex 5 to the Chicago Convention.
3.2.2.3.5. Differences between the Annexes to the Chicago Convention and the regulations applicable in
the United Kingdom are published in the AIP under GEN 1.7.
3.2.2.4 The aviation legislation of the United Kingdom, including the Act, ANO 2005, and others, are
published on the UK Office of Public Sector Information website (http://www.opsi.gov.uk) or on the UK
Statute Law database (http://www.statutelaw.gov.uk). UKCAA publications are available from the UKCAA
website (http://www.caa.co.uk), and the European Regulations can be found on http://eur-
lex.europa.eu/en/index.htm.
3.2.2.5 With respect to personnel licensing, detailed requirements that applicants must meet in order
to obtain pilot licences are outlined in the UKCAA publication entitled LASORS, which is updated annually.
The LASORS elaborates on the European requirements for pilot licensing as set down in the Joint Aviation
Requirements — Flight Crew Licensing 1 (JAR-FCL 1) and JAR-FCL 2. Although the ANO 2005 makes
reference to JAR-FCL 1 Amendment 5 and JAR-FCL 2 Amendment 3, the latest amendments of JAR-FCL
were introduced through an Aeronautical Information Circular (AIC). There are however no regulatory
provisions addressing the latest amendments to Annex 1 to the Chicago Convention regarding language
proficiency for air traffic controllers.
3.2.2.6 The UKCAA has issued three CAPs on the licensing of ATCOs, namely:
1) CAP 744 (The UK Manual of Personnel Licensing— Air Traffic Controllers),
2) CAP 584 (Requirements of Initial Air Traffic Control Training), and
3) CAP 624 Parts A – O (Rating Requirements for Air Traffic Controllers).
3.2.2.6.1 For aircraft maintenance engineer licences, the provisions are found in EC legislation (i.e.
Commission Regulation (EC) No 2042/2003 of 20 November 2003). However, as EC legislation does not apply
- 10 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
to all aircraft, some maintenance engineers have retained their BCAR Section L National licences to carry out
their tasks on those aircraft.
3.2.2.7 The specific medical requirements for flight crew (except flight engineers) are described in
JAR-FCL 3 Amendment 5 (dated 1 December 2006). Meanwhile, medical standards for ATCOs are outlined
in the Civil Aviation Authority Guidance Notes for Authorized Medical Examiners (dated October 1997).
However, the content of this document does not constitute regulatory requirements and also does not reflect the
latest amendments to Annex 1 to the Chicago Convention.
3.2.2.8 With respect to aircraft operations, commercial aircraft operations with aeroplanes are
conducted in the UK Main in accordance with the EU-OPS, which is the transposition into EC law of
JAR-OPS 1 as specified by Commission Regulation (EC) No 859/2008 of 20 August 2008 amending Council
Regulation (EEC) No 3922/91 of 16 December 1991 as regards common technical requirements and
administrative procedures applicable to commercial transportation by aeroplane. The EU OPS entered into
force on 16 July 2008.
3.2.2.9 For commercial air transport with helicopter, EC legislation is not yet applicable and, while
the UKCAA encourages commercial helicopter operators to comply with the provisions of JAR-OPS 3,
JAR-OPS 3 has not been formally transposed into UK legislation. The national regulation in force in the
United Kingdom is the ANO 2005, but it has not been amended to incorporate the latest amendments of
Annex 6, Part III to the Chicago Convention. In addition, the list of differences with Annex 6, Part III as
notified by the United Kingdom does not refer to the least stringent requirements of ANO 2005 and of
JAR-OPS 3.
3.2.2.10 With respect to the transport of dangerous goods by air, the United Kingdom supplements the
ANO 2005 provisions with the Air Navigation (Dangerous Goods) Regulations 2002, which adopt ICAO’s
Technical Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air (Doc 9284). These regulations
require air operators to obtain approvals to carry dangerous goods from the UKCAA. Under the ANO 2005,
Article 70(2) provides for enforcement actions to be taken for failure to comply with the regulations regarding
transport of dangerous goods, while Article 148(6) defines the criminal penalties. Contravention of the
provisions of the dangerous goods regulation constitutes a criminal offence. In addition, the EU OPS, Subpart
R addresses the transport of dangerous goods by air. Additional requirements issued by the UKCAA include:
a) CAP 483 (Training in the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods By Air),
b) CAP 668 (Transport by Air of Dangerous Goods, Munitions of War, Sporting Weapons
and Animals),
c) CAP 675 (Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air), and
d) CAP 768 (Guidance Material for Operators — these either impose requirements or
provide guidance to comply with requirements).
3.2.2.11 In the area of airworthiness, two sets of regulations prevail in the United Kingdom, each
addressing the different areas of competence as established in Regulation (EC) No 216/2008 of
20 February 2008. They are:
1) EC regulations issued by European Community bodies, for the certification and
continued airworthiness of aircraft which fall under the competence of EASA
(hereinafter referred to as EASA aircraft); and
- 11 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
2) the ANO 2005, supported by the British Civil Airworthiness Requirements (BCARs)
and CAPs addressing the national requirements for aircraft (including their engines,
propellers and equipment) as described or listed in Annex II of Regulation
(EC) No 216/2008 of 20 February 2008 (hereinafter referred to as Annex II aircraft).
Note. —UK National Requirements also apply to non-military State aircraft
(e.g. police, coastguard, etc.)
3.2.2.12 Commission Regulation (EC) No 1702/2003 of 24 September 2003, Part 21 describes the
general requirements and procedures for the certification of aircraft and related products, parts and appliances,
and of the design and production organizations. For the certification of aeronautical products, the basis is laid
down by EASA in the form of EASA Certification Specifications (CS), including airworthiness codes outlined
in CS-23, CS-25, CS-27 and CS-29. Meanwhile, Commission Regulation (EC) No 2042/2003 of
20 November 2003 addresses maintenance organization approval in Part 145, and continuing airworthiness in
Part M. Although significant preparatory work has been carried out to implement a requirement for approved
maintenance organizations (as well as for air operators) to establish safety management systems (SMS), the
European Commission has not promulgated the legislation and means of compliance to address this ICAO
Standard which became applicable as of 1 January 2009. Requirements for observance of human factors
principles in the design and application of maintenance programmes and for maintenance control manuals have
also not been established at the European level, even though the UKCAA has published several CAPs (e.g.
CAP 715, ―An Introduction to Aircraft Maintenance Engineering Human Factors for JAR 66;‖ CAP 716,
―Aviation Maintenance Human Factors (EASA Part-145);‖ and CAP 718, ―Human Factors in Aircraft
Maintenance and Inspection‖) on this subject.
3.2.2.13 At the national level, the provisions of Annex 7 to the Chicago Convention are addressed in
the ANO 2005. An aircraft imported into the United Kingdom from another EU Member State is only required
to have a certificate of airworthiness and a valid airworthiness review certificate. All other aircraft must hold an
EASA type certificate and an export approval, although the type certificate from the State of Design is used as
the basis for importation. The operations-derived equipment requirements of Annex 6, Parts I, II and III to the
Chicago Convention have not been fully addressed by the applicable requirements in the United Kingdom,
including EU-OPS, the ANO 2005 and JAR-OPS 3.
3.2.2.14 The BCARs (published in CAP 553, ―BCAR Section A — Airworthiness Procedures where
the CAA has Primary Responsibility for Type‖ and CAP 554, ―BCAR Section B — Airworthiness Procedures
where the CAA does not have Primary Responsibility for Type Approval of the Product‖) outline the national
codes of airworthiness for aircraft categories not addressed by an EASA CS, along with the requirements for
the approval of design and production organizations for Annex II aircraft. BCAR A8-3 lays down the
requirements for the approval of maintenance organizations relating to the overhauls, repairs, modifications,
replacements, inspections and tests to aircraft and components. BCAR A8-15 describes the requirements for an
organization to obtain approval to conduct inspections associated with the renewal of a certificate of
airworthiness. Meanwhile, BCAR A8-21 is a mirror image of Part 21, Subpart G, Production Organization
Approval of the Commission Regulation (EC) No 1702/2003 of 24 September 2003. The standards on
environmental noise for Annex II aircraft as stipulated in Annex 16, Volume I to the Chicago Convention are
addressed by the Aeroplane Noise Regulations 1999. The Civil Aviation (Safety of Third Country Aircraft)
Regulations 2006 provide for the conduct of ramp inspections of foreign aircraft under the EC’s Safety
Assessment of Foreign Aircraft (SAFA) Programmes (in compliance with Directive 2004.36/CE of the
European Parliament and of the Council of 21 April 2004 on the safety of aircraft from outside the EC using
EC airports).
- 12 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
3.2.2.15 With respect to ANS, in addition to and based on the ANO and the applicable SES
regulations, the UKCAA has addressed the requirements of Annexes 2, 3, 4, 10, 11 and 15 to the Chicago
Convention through the issuance the ―ATS Safety Regulation Policy Paper, Rules of the Air Regulation 1996‖
as well as numerous CAPs such as the following:
a) CAP 746 (Meteorological Observations at Aerodromes) and CAP 782 (Regulation of
Aeronautical Meteorological Services) for Annex 3 to the Chicago Convention;
b) CAP 724 (Airspace Charter) for Annex 4 to the Chicago Convention;
c) CAP 779 (Regulation of Aeronautical Information Management Services) for Annex 15
to the Chicago Convention; and
d) CAP 493 (Manual of Air Traffic Services (MATS) Part 1) and CAP 670 (ATS Safety
Requirements) for Annexes 10 and 11 to the Chicago Convention.
3.2.2.15.1 In addition, through the UK SAR Strategic Committee, the DfT has developed the policy to
ensure that civilian SAR arrangements are in accordance with Annex 12 to the Chicago Convention.
3.2.2.16 With respect to aerodromes, the UKCAA has promulgated regulatory requirements covering
most of the topics addressed in Annex 14, Volumes I and II to the Chicago Convention and the related
manuals. These requirements are outlined in several CAPs. For example, CAP 168 (Licensing of Aerodromes)
addresses the certification and the planning of aerodromes and covers several Annex 14-related issues such as
licensing, aerodrome manual, aerodrome physical characteristics, obstacle control, obstacle limitation surfaces,
bird strike risk management, aerodrome ground lightings, signals, markings, rescue and fire fighting (RFF),
and emergency planning. In particular, Chapter 12 of CAP 168 applies to ―land-based heliports that wish to be
licensed.‖ In addition, provisions regarding obstacle control and protection against the bird strike hazards are
laid down in various other regulatory documents promulgated by the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister, the
DfT, the National Assembly for Wales (Circular 1/2003), and the Scottish Government (Circular 1/2002).
3.2.2.17 Aircraft accident and incident investigation in the United Kingdom is governed by the Civil
Aviation (Investigation of Air Accidents and Incidents) Regulations 1996, which came into force on
21 November 1996. Under these regulations, the Secretary of State shall appoint investigators (referred to as
―Inspectors of Air Accidents‖), including one of them as ―Chief Inspector of Air Accidents.‖ These
investigators form the AAIB. The Civil Aviation (Investigation of Air Accidents and Incidents)
Regulations 1996 address both the conduct of investigations which fall under the investigation responsibility of
the United Kingdom as well as the participation of the United Kingdom in investigations conducted by other
States. Specifically, it is stated in Article 4 of these regulations that the sole objective of the investigations is
the ―prevention of accidents and incidents.‖ Toward this end, they provide the AAIB and its investigators with
all the necessary legal powers and tools to conduct accident and incident investigations. Article 18 of the Civil
Aviation (Investigation of Air Accidents and Incidents) Regulations 1996 also provides for protection against
disclosure of the investigation records as listed in paragraph 5.12 of Annex 13 to the Chicago Convention and
contain other necessary provisions to enable the United Kingdom to comply with its obligations under
Annex 13 to the Chicago Convention.
3.2.3 Critical element 3 ─ State civil aviation system and safety oversight functions
―The establishment of a civil aviation authority (CAA) and/or other relevant authorities or
government agencies, headed by a Chief Executive Officer, supported by the appropriate and
adequate technical and non-technical staff and provided with adequate financial resources.
The State authority must have stated safety regulatory functions, objectives and safety
policies.
- 13 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
Note.— The term ‘State civil aviation system’ is used in a generic sense to include all
aviation-related authorities with aviation safety oversight responsibility which may be
established by the State as separate entities, such as: CAA, airport authorities, air traffic
service authorities, accident investigation authority, meteorological authority, etc.”
3.2.3.1 As head of the DfT, the Secretary of State has overall policy responsibility for civil aviation
matters and sponsors all civil aviation legislation. His functions and responsibilities are set out in the Civil
Aviation Act 1982 (or the Act), Section 1 and in the Transport Act 2000. The DfT is in charge of setting the
policy framework, conducting international negotiations, agreeing to priorities and objectives each year with
the UKCAA, monitoring the performance of the UKCAA, and appointing the Board members of the UKCAA.
Responsibility for Search and Rescue policy also rests with the DfT. Through the UK SAR Strategic
Committee, the DfT develops the criteria for, and assesses the effectiveness of the United Kingdom’s civil
aeronautical and maritime SAR resources, including their response and coordination. Within the DfT, civil
aviation-related issues are managed by the Aviation Directorate. The DfT’s International Aviation and Safety
Division (within the Aviation Directorate) is responsible for coordinating ICAO-related matters.
3.2.3.2 The UKCAA is a public corporation established by Parliament in 1972. It is in charge of the
regulation and oversight of civil aviation, and its activities include economic regulation, airspace policy, safety
regulation, and consumer protection. The responsibilities of the UKCAA are laid down in the Civil Aviation
Act 1982, the Airports Act 1986, the Transport Act 2000, as well as the Directions given under Section 6 of the
Civil Aviation Act 1982 and Section 66 of the Transport Act 2000, and its functions are described in detail in
the ANO 2005. The UKCAA is funded entirely through fees and charges from the regulated industry for its
statutory functions.
3.2.3.2.1 The UKCAA is accountable to Parliament through the Secretary of State. Among the duties of
the UKCAA is to advise Ministers on technical issues and policy development, particularly in relation to
regulatory policy. The UKCAA also has a role in drafting legislation.
3.2.3.3 The United Kingdom has established a State Safety Programme (SSP), published under
CAP 784 (State Safety Programme for the United Kingdom), in line with ICAO Standards. The UK SSP is
being implemented in a phases and covers the safety oversight arrangements for both civil and military aviation
in the United Kingdom. Specifically, the UK SSP addresses the following:
a) the UK safety oversight arrangements for UK Main, the Overseas Territories and the
Crown Dependencies;
b) UK aviation safety policy and objectives;
c) aviation safety risk management;
d) aviation safety assurance;
e) aviation safety promotion;
f) aviation safety legislative frameworks;
g) an acceptable level of safety, and
h) a safety risk management process.
3.2.3.4 The UKCAA has its headquarters located in two offices: Aviation House (next to London
Gatwick Airport) and CAA House (in Kingsway, Holborn, in central London). In addition, the UKCAA has
seven regional offices, namely: Luton, Manchester, North East and Midlands, Southern, Southwestern,
Stansted, and Stirling.
- 14 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
3.2.3.5 Within the UKCAA, the Safety Regulation Group (SRG) carries out regulatory oversight
functions, and the Directorate of Airspace Policy (DAP) assumes the functions of both regulatory oversight and
service provision in some ANS areas (including PANS OPS and aeronautical charts).
3.2.3.6 The SRG is headed by a Group Director and has four divisions, namely: 1) Flight Operations,
2) Airworthiness, 3) Licensing, and 4) Air Traffic Standards. The SRG Regional Offices are multi-disciplinary,
although the common administration staff come under the Airworthiness Division. Regional office staff are
made up of airworthiness, flight operations, aerodrome, and air traffic inspectors as well as their respective
managers and support staff. Except for personnel licensing activities which are not conducted at any of the
regional offices, the regional offices undertake a wide range of tasks, including:
a) the inspection of aircraft;
b) the approval and ongoing oversight of AOC holders, maintenance organizations, and
production organizations;
c) the issuance and renewal of certificates of airworthiness and permits to fly;
d) the inspection and approval of aircraft modifications and repairs;
e) the investigation of Mandatory Occurrence Reports; and
f) the examination of aircraft maintenance engineers.
3.2.3.7 The UKCAA ensures coordination and standardization across the organization through various
means, including quarterly meetings between the regional managers and the headquarter staff and annual
quality audits.
3.2.3.8 All technical staff of the UKCAA are provided with job descriptions and issued the necessary
credentials (after the completion of their initial training) along with a document which details the extent of their
delegated authority. The UKCAA has full control over its staff recruitment process and is able to recruit and
keep highly qualified staff. Overall, the UKCAA is adequately funded and staffed.
3.2.3.9 With respect to personnel licensing, the UKCAA has sufficient and well-qualified technical
personnel. The responsibilities involved in all personnel licensing procedures are established and well
documented. None of the main personnel licensing functions is conducted at the regional offices. Activities
related to personnel licensing are shared among various entities. The Personnel Licensing Department,
established within the Licensing Division, is responsible for flight crew and aircraft maintenance engineer
licensing. The responsibility for ATCO licensing is shared between the Personnel Licensing Department and
the Air Traffic Standards Division. Flight examiners are designated by the UKCAA, based on JAR-FCL
requirements. All flight examiners have JAR-FCL licences, with the exception of some type rating or synthetic
flight examiners, who hold only US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) licences.
3.2.3.10 As part of personnel licensing, medical assessments are conducted by aviation medicine
practitioners designated by the Medical Department within the Licensing Division. All designated aviation
medical examiners (AMEs), whether they are located in United Kingdom or abroad, have clearly defined duties
and responsibilities. The number of AMEs is controlled by the UKCAA and the selection criteria are clearly
established. All medical files are stored in secure conditions ensuring confidentiality of reports and records.
There is only one Aeromedical Center (AMC) in the United Kingdom, located at the UKCAA headquarters,
which works closely with the Medical Department.
3.2.3.11 With respect to aircraft operations, the Flight Operations Division (FOD) is responsible for the
supervision of aircraft operations activities. The FOD has sufficient staff to fulfil its responsibilities and is
divided in four departments:
- 15 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
1) the Flight Operations Inspectorate (Aeroplanes) Department, which is in charge of
dangerous goods supervision, cabin safety and airplane commercial operators;
2) the Flight Operations Inspectorate (Helicopter, General Aviation, Training and
Simulators) Department, in charge of helicopter commercial operators, general aviation,
training and simulator standards;
3) the Flight Operations Strategy Department, in charge of European strategy, quality and
risk management; and
4) the Flight Operations Policy Department, in charge of policy for general and commercial
aviation.
3.2.3.12 With respect to airworthiness, related tasks are carried out by the UKCAA or EASA,
depending on the area of competence. The tasks transferred to EASA as of 28 September 2003 include type
certification and approval of design organizations, as well as the approval of manufacturing and maintenance
organizations outside the EC. Pursuant to Article 66 of Regulation (EC) No 216/2008 of 20 February 2008,
EASA and the United Kingdom have signed a service contract establishing the conditions under which the
UKCAA will assist EASA in the execution of certain tasks in the field of certification and standardization
inspections. The UKCAA is also delegated the task of performing technical airworthiness inspections for the
continuing airworthiness of products for which the United Kingdom is the Leading Authority. In addition, the
UKCAA is responsible for the approval and supervision of manufacturing and maintenance organizations in
the United Kingdom and for compliance with the State’s responsibilities as the State of Registry.
3.2.3.13 The Aircraft Registration Section of the UKCAA falls under the Corporate Centre which
reports directly to the UKCAA Board. The Airworthiness Division of the UKCAA is composed of:
1) the Airworthiness Strategy and Policy Department;
2) the Survey Department;
3) the Aircraft Certification Department; and
4) the Applications and Approvals Department
3.2.3.14 For activities or for type of aircraft (Annex II aircraft) for which competencies have not been
transferred to EASA, the related tasks (i.e. type certification, modification approvals, as well as design,
manufacturing and production approvals) are shared between the Survey Department and the Aircraft
Certification Department. There are Annex II aircraft on the UK aircraft register that participate in international
commercial aircraft operations. The Applications and Approvals Department handles the administrative
processes related to the issuance of airworthiness approvals, including receiving applications and tracking each
step until the final issuance. Airworthiness activities are also carried out by all seven regional offices of the
UKCAA, which submit the results of their activities to the Applications and Approvals Department for liaison
with the other concerned departments.
3.2.3.15 The Airworthiness Division has developed general job descriptions for surveyors, engineers
and management staff which identify key responsibilities, performance indicators, key competencies as well as
the required knowledge, skills and experience for each position. With each department, the duties and
responsibilities are more specific and customized to match its functions. The Airworthiness Division does not
delegate any of its tasks outside of the UKCAA.
3.2.3.16 With respect to ANS, safety oversight tasks are carried out by the Air Traffic Standards
Division (ATSD) of the SRG and by the DAP. However, the DAP also has service provider functions, and
while some separation between the regulatory and service provision functions has been achieved within the
DAP in the field of aeronautical charts, this is not the case for PANS OPS.

Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
3.2.3.17 The main ATS provider is NATS, which is divided into two private companies: NATS En
Route Limited (NERL) (for en-route airspace, London Terminal Control Centre and the provision of AIS) and
NATS Services Limited (NSL). NATS/NERL manages three area control centres (ACCs) located within the
London and Scottish flight information regions (FIRs). The NATS/NSL operates air traffic control (ATC)
services in 18 airports in the United Kingdom. The Ministry of Defence's (MoD) en-route ATC units are co-
located with the NATS ACCs.
3.2.3.18 Within the United Kingdom, there are 69 certified ATS providers in 109 locations (including
MoD and NATS), 1 AIS provider, 24 MET providers, and 2 SAR providers (i.e. the RAF SAR Force
Aeronautical Rescue Coordination Centre and the Maritime and Coastguard Agency). The United Kingdom
has also delegated the provision of ATS to four adjacent States/centres in accordance to CAP 724 which
provides the framework for agreements on ATS safety oversight by the respective national supervisory
authorities (NSAs).
3.2.3.19 Both the DfT and the MoD are involved in the oversight of SAR services through the
Standards and Evaluation (STANEVAL) Team (RAF) and the Quality Management Branch of the Maritime
and Coastguard Agency of the DfT.
3.2.3.20 The distribution of the AIP, AICs, Notices to Airmen (NOTAMs), and Charts is the
responsibility of the NATS AIS Department. The AIP and AICs are produced using the publishing software
―Frame APS.‖ Meanwhile, the NOTAM Office has migrated to the European AIS database (EAD) since spring
of 2008. However, the United Kingdom has not established mechanism to ensure that aeronautical data quality
requirements related to charting resolution, publication resolution, and data integrity are in accordance with the
provisions of Annexes 4 and 15 to the Chicago Convention, respectively.
3.2.3.21 The UKCAA (the DAP) is the meteorological authority for the United Kingdom.
Meteorological forecasting and climatology services for civil aviation are provided by the UK MET Office,
which is an executive defence agency. Meanwhile, MET observations (i.e. METARs and other local MET
observations) are provided by 24 certified MET providers (including the UK MET Office). The UK MET
Office, whose operations centre is located at Exeter, acts as the Meteorological Watch Office (MWO) for the
London and Scottish FIR/upper flight information region (UIR) and the Shanwick FIR/oceanic control area
(OCA). It also operates one of the two World Area Forecast Centres (WAFCs) which is responsible for the
provision of global forecasts of significant weather global grid point data. The UK MET Office also operates
the regional Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre in London.
3.2.3.22 With respect to SAR, the Airports Policy Division (APD) under the Aviation Directorate of
the DfT has overall responsibility for the United Kingdom’s civil aviation SAR and assigns the operational and
administrative responsibilities of all SAR arrangements for military and civil aviation to the MoD. An inter-
agency national forum, the UK SAR Strategic Committee advises on the structure, scope and framework of UK
SAR as a whole.
3.2.3.23 Under an agreement dating back to 1947, the MoD, through the RAF, is responsible for
coordinating civil aeronautical SAR on behalf of the DfT. It also establishes and maintains the UK
Aeronautical Rescue Co-ordination Centre (ARCC) for the operation and coordination of both civil and
military aeronautical SAR.
3.2.3.24 The ARCC, located in Kinloss, Scotland, is staffed by a team of trained SAR officers who
provide aeronautical SAR service coverage on a 24-hour basis, with close coordination and cooperation with
Maritime and Coastguard Agency, police, ambulance authorities, voluntary organizations and other entities
- 17 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
assisting in SAR operations within the UK SAR Region (SRR) which spans approximately a million square
miles. The ARCC is the central coordination unit for all SAR helicopters throughout the United Kingdom and
also home to the UK Mission Control Centre (UKMCC) where the United Kingdom operates one ground
receiving station (Combe Martin) and a mission control centre in Kinloss for Cospas-Sarsat satellite distress
beacon system.
3.2.3.25 With respect to aerodromes, the Aerodrome Standards Department (ASD) under the Licensing
Division carries out all certification, surveillance and standards activities for aerodromes and heliports. Job
descriptions have been developed for all the staff members. Aerodrome inspectors are supported by other
regulatory staff personnel for specific inspections. The staffing level of the ASD is sufficient to ensure that all
oversight tasks are performed in an effective and timely manner.
3.2.3.26 The AAIB is the United Kingdom’s independent air accident and incident investigation
authority. It is headed by a Chief Inspector, who reports directly to the Secretary of State and is assisted by a
Deputy Chief Inspector. The AAIB is funded entirely by the DfT. It is located in Farnborough and does not
have regional offices. The investigators of the AAIB have a variety of backgrounds and their number is
sufficient to enable the AAIB to fulfil its responsibilities as far as the UK Main is concerned. The organization
of the AAIB is defined in Part A of the AAIB Operating Manual. This part of the manual also contains detailed
job descriptions for all positions within the AAIB, including the various categories of investigators (i.e.
―principal inspectors of air accidents,‖ the ―senior inspectors of air accidents,‖ and the ―inspectors of air
accidents‖). Although the AAIB’s principal mission is to investigate accidents and incidents to civil aircraft, it
also provides assistance to military aircraft accident investigations in the United Kingdom.
3.2.3.27 The United Kingdom has established mandatory occurrence reporting system that is managed
by the Safety Investigation and Data Department (SIDD) under the Licensing Division of the UKCAA.
3.2.4 Critical element 4 ─ Technical personnel qualification and training
―The establishment of minimum requirements for knowledge and experience of the technical
personnel performing safety oversight functions and the provision of appropriate training to
maintain and enhance their competence at the desired level. The training should include initial
and recurrent (periodic) training.‖
3.2.4.1 The UKCAA has laid down qualification and experience requirements for the recruitment of
its technical staff. Training programmes have been established for all technical staff. Upon recruitment, all
technical staff have to complete an initial training followed by a period of on-the-job training. Annually, the
training needs are evaluated for each staff member and a training plan is developed based on the business
needs of each department. The implementation of the training programme is monitored and recorded through a
computerized system.
3.2.4.2 With respect to personnel licensing, the concerned technical and administrative staff of the
Licensing Division as well as the staff of the Medical Department are provided with recurrent and refresher
training courses to maintain and enhance their knowledge and competency. Training records of these two units
are maintained by the respective unit managers.
3.2.4.3 Aside from its own examiners, the UKCAA also appoints designated flight examiners from
the industry to perform examinations on its behalf. These designated flight examiners are appointed for a three-
year period following completion of a flight examiner seminar and a successful acceptance flight test. The
designation can be renewed for another three years on condition that the flight examiner performs at least ten
- 18 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
examinations per year, attends a flight examiner seminar, and passes an acceptance flight test. Special attention
is paid to flight examiners for commercial pilot licences and flight instructor examiners for whom the UKCAA
organizes a special seminar every two years.
3.2.4.4 The UKCAA appoints designated medical examiners based on a procedure which requires
special training and adequate experience in aviation medicine, including attendance of a JAR course before
their appointment. Examiners are appointed to a three-year term and have to undergo sufficient refresher
training. Class 1 medical examiners can issue certificates equivalent to ICAO’s class 1 and class 3 as described
in Annex 1 to the Chicago Convention, while Class 2 medical examiners can only issue the equivalent to
ICAO’s class 2 in Annex 1 to the Chicago Convention.
3.2.4.5 With respect to flight operations, the UKCAA is able to hire and keep qualified and
experienced staff. As required by EU OPS, proficiency checks are carried out by type rating examiners. The
selection, standardization and supervision of type rating examiners is adequately performed and documented.
The dangerous goods inspector’s training syllabus is comprehensive and well implemented.
3.2.4.6 With respect to airworthiness, the Airworthiness Division’s Learning and Development
Handbook outlines the training programme for surveyors and engineers. After completion of a ten-week initial
training course, the surveyors or engineers are assigned to a department or regional office where they undergo
on-the-job training under the supervision of a senior technical staff member. As each required competency for
the position is completed, it is recorded on a matrix and kept as part of the individual’s training records. The
Standardization Manager of the Airworthiness Strategy and Policy Department is responsible for managing the
annual training plan, including updating and revising the training programme as necessary and determining the
options to address the training needs identified.
3.2.4.7 With respect to implementation of SMS in aircraft maintenance organizations, the UKCAA
has provided training and seminars on the subject for both its inspectorate staff and the aviation industry in
anticipation of the promulgation of this new requirement. A review of the training plan for fiscal year
2008/2009 indicated that the training plan was mostly implemented as planned, with a few revisions to fine-
tune the Airworthiness Division’s business plan in response to budget cuts. The UKCAA’s participation in
certification and standardization projects under the EASA service contract also helps to maintain its
competence in the areas that are now under the competence of EASA.
3.2.4.8 With respect to ANS, the minimum knowledge and experience requirements of the regulatory
staff performing safety oversight functions have been developed for the concerned staff of the ATSD and the
DAP. The training required (including initial, on-the-job, recurrent and specialized training) has been planned
and delivered effectively. Regarding SAR, the STANEVAL team members are selected on recommendation
and agreement by senior SAR Executives based on their practical skills, which are documented in their
personal training folders and formal assessment folders. The requirements and training criteria for the Maritime
and Coastguard Agency are specified in its Operations Advice Note (OAN) 579: Operational Standards and
Training Audits (OSTA).
3.2.4.9 With respect to aerodromes, the modules of the ASD inspectors’ training courses cover all
safety-related aspects, including SMS and the use and evaluation aeronautical studies and risk assessments.
The training programme in place is well implemented.
3.2.4.10 With respect to accident and incident investigation, the AAIB has established minimum
qualification and experience requirements for the recruitment of its investigators. Investigators are provided
with the relevant initial, on-the-job, and specialized training, and a formal training programme has been
- 19 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
developed. However, this training programme does not contain details of the initial/basic, on-the-job, recurrent,
and advanced or specialized training. Furthermore, training records are not kept in a comprehensive manner
and the on-the-job training provided to the investigators is not fully documented.
3.2.5 Critical element 5 ─ Technical guidance, tools and the provision of
safety critical information
―The provision of technical guidance (including processes and procedures), tools (including
facilities and equipment) and safety critical information, as applicable, to the technical
personnel to enable them to perform their safety oversight functions in accordance with
established requirements and in a standardized manner. In addition, this includes the
provision of technical guidance by the oversight authority to the aviation industry on the
implementation of applicable regulations and instructions.‖
3.2.5.1 The UKCAA staff are provided with adequate facilities and equipment. The UKCAA has a
technical library which provides the staff with all necessary and up-to-date documents, in electronic format or
in hard copy, as applicable.
3.2.5.2 With respect to personnel licensing, the UKCAA has properly documented all its personnel
licensing processes and procedures. Forms have been developed for the various licences and are available on
the UKCAA website (http://www.caa.co.uk). A flight examiner manual is also available. The licensing and
training records related to personnel licences and approvals of training organizations issued by the UKCAA are
maintained in a computerized database, with controlled access rights. Personnel licensing records are kept in
hard copy for three months, in case of an appeal. After this period, the hard copies are destroyed. Medical files
are kept in a locked area until destroyed, under strict control of access.
3.2.5.3 With respect to flight operations, all guidance material related to certification and surveillance
activities of air operators are compiled into the Management System Manual (MSM) which is available on the
UKCAA Intranet. Version 2 of the MSM (MSM2) was introduced in January 2009. This manual contains
policies, procedures and guidelines covering all relevant aspects, including:
a) AOC oversight, application, administration, variations and decisions;
b) general aviation;
c) simulators;
d) training standards administration and inspectorate;
e) permissions, approvals, variations and exemptions;
f) accidents, incidents and mandatory occurrence reports; and
g) aircraft leasing.
3.2.5.4 While the manual MSM2 is, generally speaking, comprehensive and sufficiently detailed,
there is no procedure in place regarding the assessment of personnel involved in flight operations dispatch and
of cabin crew instructors and cabin crew examiners.
3.2.5.5 With respect to the transport of dangerous goods by air, Part B, Section 6, of the MSM
outlines the policies and procedures for the granting by the dangerous goods technical staff of authorizations to
carry, or prohibition against carrying dangerous goods. The guidance is detailed and covers the necessary
technical aspects and processes. In addition, CAP 483 lays down detailed guidance and information on how
training on the safe transport of dangerous goods can be managed. This guidance material is used to train staff
involved in the transport of dangerous goods by air and those dealing with the carriage of passengers or cargo.
- 20 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
Part A of CAP 483 applies to training programmes that are not subject to approval by the UKCAA, while
Part B applies to those training providers whose training is subject to UKCAA approval. Guidance information
for the regulated parties is available on the UKCAA website, such as information for passengers, training
checklists, presentations, application forms, CAPs, warning notices, and upcoming changes. A checklist and a
sample template for developing dangerous goods training programmes are available to air operators applying
for an EU OPS dangerous goods approval to carry dangerous goods.
3.2.5.6 With respect to airworthiness, the Airworthiness Division has developed comprehensive
procedures, forms and checklists for the approvals for which it is responsible, and they are available on the
UKCAA Intranet, including: certificates of registration, noise certificates, approvals of modifications and
repairs, certificates of airworthiness, special flight permits, continuing airworthiness maintenance organization
(CAME) approvals, maintenance programme approvals, minimum equipment list (MEL) approvals, reduced
vertical separation minimum (RVSM) approvals, approvals of aircraft leasing agreements, maintenance
organization approvals, type certificates, amended/supplemental type certificates, design organization and
production organization approvals. Although no requirement for maintenance organizations to implement SMS
has been established, the UKCAA has developed extensive procedures and made available guidance material
on this subject to the industry.
3.2.5.7 Procedures and guidance for the issuance of approvals related to Annex II aircraft can also be
found in some BCARs and CAPs. Guidance on the issuance of permits to fly is covered in CAP 733 (Permit to
Fly Aircraft). The Airworthiness Notices currently published in CAP 455 (Airworthiness Notices) are being
transferred to CAP 562 (Civil Airworthiness Information and Procedures). For the issuance of aircraft
approvals related to EASA aircraft, as well as for Part-M, Part-145 and Part-21 Subpart G approvals, the
Airworthiness Division’s internal procedures make reference to the procedures, forms and checklists developed
by EASA. EASA procedures are applicable for any work conducted by UKCAA specialists under the
established service contract. A collection of aircraft- and engine-related technical documentation related to the
aircraft found on the UK aircraft registry is maintained and available either via the UKCAA Intranet or in hard
copy from the library. Flight manuals are maintained in the Flight Manual Section and airworthiness directives
can be found either on the UKCAA or the EASA websites.
3.2.5.8 In the ANS area, the UKCAA has developed comprehensive documentation and tools for the
conduct of regulatory duties by the ANS inspectors, including Intranet and Internet systems (for the
dissemination of safety-critical information to their users) and the Electronic Records Management system. To
prepare for audits, the ANS providers which already implement SMS can use the ―SMS Checklist gap
analyses‖ published on the UKCAA website. Other ANS providers, still to implement SMS, can use CAP 730
(Safety Management Systems for Air Traffic Management) as implementation guide or CAP 728 (The
Management of Safety: Guidance to Aerodromes and Air Traffic Service Units on the Development of Safety
Management Systems). ATS providers have also developed guidance material (Manual of Air Traffic Services
Part 2) in response to the UKCAA-SRG requirements (CAP 493, ―Manual of Air Traffic Services (MATS)
Part 1‖).
3.2.5.9 With respect to SAR, both the RAF and Maritime and Coastguard Agency have developed
Standard Operating Procedures for both their evaluation/audit teams and the operational units that provide the
services. In addition to the UK AIP, which is published and updated under the authority of the UKCAA, the
European Aeronautical Database (EAD) also offers standard aeronautical data reports, Pre-flight Information
Bulletins (PIBs), and AIPs, all of which are available on the Internet.
3.2.5.10 With respect to aerodromes, the UKCAA has issued several publications to address various
aspects of Annex 14, Volumes I and II to the Chicago Convention, such as:
- 21 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
• obstacle control (CAP 232, ―Aerodrome Survey Information‖),
• visual aids (CAP 637, ―Visual Aids Handbook‖),
• vehicle operation and emergencies/airside safety management (CAP 642, ―Airside
Safety Management‖),
• aeronautical ground lighting (CAP 655, ―Aeronautical Ground Lighting‖),
• RFF personal training and competence (CAP 699, ―Standards for the competence of
Rescue and Firefighting Service (RFFS) Personnel employed at United Kingdom
licensed aerodromes‖),
• hazard identification and risk assessment (CAP 760, ―Guidance on the Conduct of
Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment and the Production of Safety Cases: For
Aerodrome Operators and Air Traffic Service Providers‖),
• bird strike risk management (CAP 772, ―Birdstrike Risk Management for
Aerodromes‖), and
• off-shore helicopter landing areas (CAP 437, ―Offshore Helicopter Landing Areas —
Guidance on Standards‖).
3.2.5.10.1 In addition, a comprehensive set of procedures has been developed and is readily available to
the inspectors and the regulatory staff on the Intranet of the UKCAA.
3.2.5.11 The procedures ASD-004, ASD-008, ASD-010 address certification- and surveillance-related
tasks, including the issuance and renewal of aerodrome certificates, the issuance of exemption, and the review
and approval of the aerodrome manual. For surveillance activities, several procedures, called ASD-OPS
procedures, have been developed to support all related safety oversight tasks for the core areas concerned (e.g.
RFF; operations; emergency exercises; and safety reports).
3.2.5.12 The AAIB staff are provided with adequate facilities, equipment, documentation,
transportation and communication means to perform their activities. The AAIB has large hangars to store
wreckage as well as its own cockpit voice recorder and flight data recorder read out facilities. The AAIB
Operating Manual, issued under the authority of the Chief Inspector of Air Accidents, outlines all the policies,
procedures, guidelines, checklists and forms that were developed to assist the AAIB personnel in carrying out
their functions. The AAIB addresses both the conduct of investigations by the AAIB as well as the
participation of the AAIB in investigations conducted by other States. However, some parts of the AAIB
Operating Manual have not yet been finalized. The scope and depth of the investigations carried out by the
AAIB are determined by the type of occurrence and the potential benefit that may be gained to enhance
aviation safety. Accordingly, different types of investigation reports are produced, depending on the type of
investigation conducted. The AAIB publishes all completed reports as well as bulletins and special bulletins on
its website (http://www.aaib.gov.uk).
3.2.6 Critical element 6 ─ Licensing, certification, authorization and/or
approval obligations
―The implementation of processes and procedures to ensure that personnel and organizations
performing an aviation activity meet the established requirements before they are allowed to
exercise the privileges of a licence, certificate, authorization and/or approval to conduct the
relevant aviation activity.‖
3.2.6.1 With respect to personnel licensing, licences and ratings for pilots and aircraft maintenance
engineers are of the expiring type, with various periods of validity. For ATCOs, the licences are of the
continuing type. Renewals of ratings require flight checks or recent proof of experience. All applications are
- 22 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
sent to the Personnel Licensing Department in hard copy, where they are subsequently digitalized and stored.
All data about licence holders are stored in the UKCAA’s electronic database with controlled rights of access.
3.2.6.2 Theoretical examinations for flight crew and aircraft maintenance personnel are organized by
the UKCAA in its Theory Examinations Centres, located mainly in the United Kingdom. For aircraft
maintenance engineers, theoretical examinations can also be organized by approved Part-147 training
organizations. For pilots, theoretical tests are prepared by the UKCAA, using the JAA Central Questions Bank.
For other types of licences, the UKCAA has developed its own databases, which are continuously updated. All
examinations are paper-based and monitored by invigilators approved by the UKCAA.
3.2.6.3 Flight examinations are performed either by the UKCAA flight inspectors or by designated
flight examiners. The UKCAA has established five Regional Flight Test Centres located in the United
Kingdom.
3.2.6.3.1 To obtain authorization or designation, flight examiners, who are assigned by the Personnel
Licensing Department, are required to comply with JAR-FCL provisions and to hold the required
class/type/simulator instructor/examiner ratings. They are also provided with standardization courses before
authorization is granted. Applications for authorization as flight examiners are made by the flight training
organizations and type rating training organizations and airlines.
3.2.6.3.2 Aircraft maintenance engineers are tested in accordance with Part-66 and/or Part-147
requirements. ATCO licences are processed using procedure ATS-LIC 001, which was developed by the Air
Traffic Standards Division of the UKCAA. While the UKCAA validates about 100 foreign licences each year,
based on JAR-FCL provisions, the State issuing the original licence has not been contacted systematically to
ensure the validity and authenticity of the original licence.
3.2.6.4 Training organizations are certified according to existing procedures for each type of training.
The certification process includes the approval of training manuals as well as an on-site audit performed by the
technical staff from the Personnel Licensing Department for flight crew and aircraft maintenance staff and by
the Air Traffic Standards Divisions for ATCOs. Medical assessments are provided by the aeromedical
examiners appointed by the UKCAA. Designated medical examiners sign the certificate for all classes of
medical assessment, except for the initial issue of class 1 medical certificates, which is signed by one of the
Medical Assessors. Medical examination of aeronautical personnel cannot be deferred.
3.2.6.5 With respect to flight operations, the procedures for issuance of AOCs and special approvals
(such as RVSM or extended range operations by aeroplanes with two turbine-power-units (ETOPS)) are
outlined in the MSM and are well implemented in practice. AOCs are issued according to EU OPS or
JAR-OPS 3 (except for those issued according to ANO 2005) and contain operations specifications (such as
RVSM, CAT II or III, and approvals for the transport of dangerous goods by air). Initially issued for a one-year
period, AOCs may then be renewed for an unlimited period.
3.2.6.5.1 With respect to the transport of dangerous goods by air, approvals and exemptions are issued
by the UKCAA in compliance with the Air Navigation (Dangerous Goods) Regulations and ICAO Doc 9284.
The Dangerous Goods Office approves the dangerous goods training programmes and manuals for operators
that are approved to carry dangerous goods, while the Flight Operations Inspectorate approves the dangerous
goods training programmes and manuals for operators that are prohibited from carrying dangerous goods, in
coordination with the Dangerous Goods Office, when needed. The United Kingdom also approves training
companies providing training to shippers, packers and acceptance staff.
- 23 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
3.2.6.6 With respect to airworthiness, the procedures established by the Airworthiness Division are
fully implemented and, with the exception of the provisions not addressed in the regulations applicable in the
United Kingdom, these procedures fully conform to the SARPs of the Annexes to the Chicago Convention and
ICAO guidance material. Applications for the issuance and renewal of certificates of airworthiness for all
aircraft (including Annex II aircraft); approvals of national maintenance organizations; approvals of
maintenance organizations under Part-145; approvals of continuing airworthiness maintenance organizations
(CAMOs) under Part-M; BCAR A8-15 approvals; as well as production organization approvals under Part-21
and BCAR A8-21 are received by the Applications and Approvals Department under the Airworthiness
Division. Any work to be conducted in support of these applications is assigned to surveyors in the appropriate
regional office of the UKCAA, which completes the task using the established procedures and forms and
submits the required paperwork to the Applications and Approvals Department for the issuance of the final
approval.
3.2.6.7 The UKCAA has not issued any approvals under Part-21, Subpart F, Production Without
Production Organization Approval. Currently, there are only a few approvals for BCAR A8-3 organizations
and no new approvals have been issued under these requirements. Most Annex II aircraft are being maintained
under a Part-145 approval. With respect to SMS, 16 maintenance organizations in the United Kingdom have
begun implementing this, even in the absence of a specific requirement. Specific operational approvals (such as
ETOPS, RVSM, minimum navigation performance specifications, and MEL) are issued by the Flight
Operations Division, with participation in the relevant aspects by airworthiness surveyors. Although the Flight
Operations Division is responsible for ensuring compliance with the established aircraft operations-derived
equipment requirements, the current system in place does not effectively ensure compliance for aircraft
operated under an AOC, and there is no system to address aircraft which are not operated under an AOC.
3.2.6.8 Design organization approvals issued under BCAR A8-1 and BCAR A8-8 are being
transitioned to BCAR A8-21 approvals. Type certification projects (including the issuance of an initial type
certificate, amendment of type certificates and supplemental type certificates for Annex II aircraft) are managed
by the Aircraft Certification Department through a certification team including a project manager and the
required specialists. Once all certification requirements have been met, a type certificate with accompanying
type certificate data sheet is issued.
3.2.6.9 With respect to ANS, in line with Regulation (EC) No 550/200 of 10 March 2004, the
European Commission issued the common requirements for the certification of providers of ATS, PANS-OPS,
CNS, MET, AIS and Aeronautical Charts in the Commission Regulation (EC) No 2096/2005 of
20 December 2005. Accordingly the UKCAA has issued CAP 670, CAP 779 and CAP 782 which formed the
basis for the certification of all ATS, CNS, AIS, and MET providers. A similar process is applied to certify the
MoD’s ATS units. The PANS-OPS and Aeronautical Charts services have not yet been certified as they are
managed directly by the UKCAA. A quality assurance system is nevertheless in place. For the certification of
ANS providers with significant activities, the process uses a compliance metrics which incorporates both the
corporate aspects (e.g. the safety policy developed by the NATS HQ), and the situation at the local units (e.g.
the SMS at Swanwick).
3.2.6.10 The licensing of ATCOs is carried out by the ATSD. The process includes the ATC rating
examinations conducted by a UKCAA Inspector of ATS and a local ATC examiner, while the annual
competence assessments for the renewal of unit licence endorsements are carried out by local competence
examiners.
3.2.6.11 Flight inspections for navigation aids and surveillance equipment are carried out by private
companies. MET tools and systems are calibrated and certified by the UK MET Office, under the supervision
- 24 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
of the DAP.
3.2.6.12 With respect to aerodromes, certificates have been issued by the ASD to all aerodromes open
for public use, including heliports. Some certificates are issued as temporary aerodrome certificates (licences)
for a specific period and vary depending on the type of aerodromes. Other aerodrome certificates remain in
force until they are amended, suspended or revoked. The certification process is carried out in accordance with
the relevant ICAO SARPs, the established requirements (e.g. CAP 168) and the procedures in place (i.e.
procedures ASD-008, ASD-009, ASD-010). All safety aspects are addressed, including the review of physical
facilities, obstacle limitation assessments, aerodrome manuals, and SMS. However, the certification process
does not include military aerodromes used for international civil operations. The UKCAA maintains a proper
filing system, with up-to date copies of all aerodrome certificates and approved aerodrome manuals, and all
correspondence related to the application, revocation and cancellation of aerodrome certificates.
3.2.7 Critical element 7 ─ Surveillance obligations
―The implementation of processes, such as inspections and audits, to proactively ensure that
aviation licence, certificate, authorization and/or approval holders continue to meet the
established requirements and function at the level of competency and safety required by the
State to undertake an aviation-related activity for which they have been licensed, certified,
authorized and/or approved to perform. This includes the surveillance of designated personnel
who perform safety oversight functions on behalf of the CAA.‖
3.2.7.1 With respect to personnel licensing, the UKCAA has established a system for the supervision
of personnel licensing training and examination activities as well as for the continued surveillance of training
organizations. The oversight of examiners is coordinated by the Chief Flight Examiners from the Personal
Licensing Department. Licences issued to flight crew members are of the expiring type, and their renewal
requires a medical assessment and a proof of competence. Flight training organizations, maintenance
organizations, ATCO training organizations, and training device operators are required to maintain a quality
system, to appoint a quality manager, and to designate a person responsible for initiating corrective actions
when deficiencies are identified. Approved training organizations and designated medical examiners are
inspected based on a surveillance plan. Various audits and inspections are carried out periodically, requiring
training units to establish and submit corrective actions, and reports are appropriately documented. The
performance of all flight examiners are monitored based on an established procedure (i.e. PLD-APS 021:
Oversight Procedure of Flight Examiners).
3.2.7.2 With respect to aircraft operations, the UKCAA implements a surveillance programme that is
based on an annual audit and an annual oversight programme. The annual audit aims to confirm that the
organizational structure and the competence of its management team remain appropriate for the type of
operation. The annual oversight programme is decided after an annual review by the flight operations inspector
and the regional manager, and includes a sufficient number of audits and specific checks (e.g. flight, ground,
cabin, manual, quality, and training). Once the annual oversight programme is established, its implementation
is supervised by an operations support officer, who ensures that the scheduled audits or checks are effectively
completed. In addition, the UKCAA also implements a programme of supervision of type rating examiners,
which includes sampling supervision of competency checks to ensure that type rating examiners carry out their
functions in a consistent manner.
3.2.7.3 With respect to the transport of dangerous goods by air, inspections are conducted at least once
a year for operators authorized to carry dangerous goods by the Dangerous Goods Office in coordination with
the flight operations inspectors. For operators not authorized to transport dangerous goods, the dangerous
- 25 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
goods inspection are conducted by flight operations inspectors. However, the inspection programme does not
include the continuous surveillance of handling agents, freight forwarders or shippers. Moreover, the current
resource level requires dangerous goods inspectors to assist in administrative tasks and limits the surveillance
of handling agents, freight forwarders and shippers in coordination with flight operations inspectors.
3.2.7.4 With respect to airworthiness, the validity of the certificates of airworthiness is based on the
airworthiness review certificates which must be completed by a duly authorized organization every year. The
responsibility for managing the SAFA programme lies with the Secretary of State, who determines the number
of foreign aircraft ramp inspections to be conducted per airport. Effective 1 April 2008, the UKCAA was
tasked to conduct 600 SAFA inspections for the financial year ending 31 March 2009. The conduct of the
inspections is delegated to the UKCAA head office, which assigns them to the appropriate regional office of
the UKCAA. In addition, each regional office is responsible for conducting two ramp inspections of UK-
registered aircraft per year. Under the Aircraft Continuing Airworthiness Maintenance (ACAM) programme,
UK-registered aircraft chosen through sampling based on the aircraft type are subject to inspections, including
review of their installed equipment.
3.2.7.5 For organizational approvals issued under the EC Regulations, all aspects covered by the
approvals have to be reviewed within a 24-month period under a continuous inspection programme. For EASA
production organization approvals issued by the UKCAA, all aspects covered by the surveillance have to be
reviewed within a 24-month period. Random inspections are also required for EASA Part-145 approval of
maintenance organizations. The development of a surveillance programme for each organization is assigned to
an airworthiness surveyor, and the implementation is monitored by the Airworthiness Manager in each regional
office using the Airworthiness Surveillance Planning Application (ASPA) and the Office Tracking Information
System (OTIS) of the Airworthiness Division. Together, ASPA and OTIS provide transparency in the planning
and implementation of the surveillance programme. Issuance of national organizational approvals is managed
in the same way.
3.2.7.6 With respect to ANS, the UKCAA performs formal, scheduled audits of the ANS providers
(ANSPs) based on an annual surveillance plan. With a view to standardizing the conduct of the safety
oversight activity, the audit plan outlines general and specific requirements in the numerous checklists
(including a Compliance Matrix). Audit Reports and audit observations are fully documented and filed in the
Electronic Records Management system and the ANSP Tracking Monitor system. Surveillance of SAR
services follows a similar process, but also includes surveillance of SAR exercises of different dimensions and
durations. Post-surveillance assessment of each completed exercise is documented, and a follow up is carried
out in case deficiencies are identified.
3.2.7.7 With respect to aerodromes, the regulatory staff and the inspectors of the ASD use the
established guidance material and tools to plan, prioritize and conduct continuing surveillance of aerodromes.
Within the surveillance process, the frequency, scope and depth of the inspections may be adjusted by the ASD
according to the outcome of previous inspections. Surveillance activities may take the form of desktop
inspections, comprehensive (major) inspections, focused inspections on pre-selected aerodrome facilities
and/or operational items, random (spot) inspections and analyses of the outcome of the SMS reports.
Aerodrome manuals provided by aerodrome operators include the requirements for a comprehensive SMS and
are used as a key safety assurance document to assess both initial and continuing organizational competence.
The regulatory staff and the inspectors use aeronautical studies and/or risk assessments (following the
provisions of CAP 760) to assess whether exemptions or exceptions are to be granted and published in the AIP.
As part of the surveillance programme, the ASD inspectors take steps to ensure that aerodrome operators meet
the requirements about surveillance of objects according to the obstacle limitation surfaces at and around
aerodromes.

3.2.8 Critical element 8 ─ Resolution of safety concerns
―The implementation of processes and procedures to resolve identified deficiencies impacting
aviation safety, which may have been residing in the aviation system and have been detected
by the regulatory authority or other appropriate bodies.
Note.— This would include the ability to analyse safety deficiencies, forward
recommendations, support the resolution of identified deficiencies as well as take
enforcement action, when appropriate.”
3.2.8.1 With respect to personnel licensing, disciplinary actions are taken against
flight/ground/synthetic examiners who fail to maintain the standards of conduct required by the Personnel
Licensing Department, and such actions are carried out in accordance with the established procedure (i.e.
PLD-APS-020: Procedure for Examiner’s Alleged Misconduct). Appeals can be made through the procedure
established in Regulation 6 as outlined in the Civil Aviation Authority Regulations 1991. An appeal made by
an applicant or holder has to be reviewed by a panel of members of the UKCAA, who are appointed by the
Secretary of State for Transport, before a decision can be rendered. A guide to the appeal process is available
in a document issued by the SRG, entitled Guidance on Requesting a Review of Adverse Decisions.
3.2.8.2 With respect to aircraft operations, the operations support officer is responsible for ensuring
that corrective actions requested by the UKCAA inspectors are taken in a timely manner. If a corrective action
is not implemented according to the timeframe agreed between the air operator and the inspector, the
operations support officer will inform the inspector and if necessary, the air operator. In that case, enforcement
action (which includes possible suspension or revocation of the AOC) may be taken by the UKCAA, unless an
extension of the deadline is agreed upon between the air operator and UKCAA. This system is well
implemented in practice.
3.2.8.3 With respect to the transport of dangerous goods by air, the UKCAA may take all necessary
enforcement actions for failures to comply with the established requirements in this area. Such failures are
considered to be criminal offences subject to corresponding penalties. Investigation procedures — clearly
outlined in the MSM Part 2, Section 6, Chapter 3 — start with a formal investigation by the Air Regulation
Enforcement Department of the UKCAA. Non-compliance with related regulations may lead to a warning
letter sent or a formal caution issued by the UKCAA, a hearing at Magistrate’s Court (with a financial penalty),
or even a hearing at the Crown Court if the magistrate believes his/her sentencing powers are insufficient. The
UKCAA has established a database of all reported occurrences regarding dangerous goods, and all reports are
analyzed to identify hazards and assess the associated risk.
3.2.8.4 With respect to airworthiness, deficiencies identified during inspections are documented in the
appropriate forms, with deadlines laid down for action to be taken by the operators. The OTIS is used to track
the resolution of deficiencies. Examples of inspection reports reviewed show that deficiencies are resolved in a
timely manner and that enforcement action is rarely required. Requirements for the reporting of faults,
malfunctions and defects are stated in the EU Regulations for each organizational approval as well as for type
certificate and supplemental type certificate holders, and for Annex II or non-EASA aircraft, they are contained
in the ANO supported by CAP 553 (BCAR Section A). The regional office’s airworthiness surveyors have
confirmed the submission of mandatory occurrence reports as part of the initial organization approvals as well
as during the continuing surveillance conducted. Design organizations have to have a system for receiving and
assessing continuing airworthiness information and for providing the necessary guidance. Airworthiness
surveyors attend continuous airworthiness review meetings held by design organizations to determine if and
when to conduct any mandatory airworthiness action.

Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
3.2.8.5 Where a SAFA inspection reveals significant safety deficiencies, the Secretary of State is
responsible for informing the operator of the aircraft, the competent authority of the State of the Operator and,
where necessary, the State where the aircraft is registered. Where a safety report indicates that there is a
potential safety threat or a ramp inspection report states that an aircraft does not comply with international
safety standards and may pose a potential safety threat, the Secretary of State shall without delay send a copy of
the report to the competent authority in each member State and to the European Commission. Serious
deficiencies identified during domestic or foreign aircraft ramp inspections have to be resolved prior to further
flight.
3.2.8.6 Airworthiness directives (ADs) related to Annex II aircraft in the United Kingdom can be
found on the UKCAA website under CAP 747 (Mandatory Requirements for Airworthiness), with Emergency
ADs published separately on the website and then added to CAP 747 after two months. Under Part M, ADs
from the State of Design as well as EASA ADs are considered mandatory. The ―Flexibility Provisions‖
provided in Article 14 of Regulation (EC) No 216/2008 of 20 February 2008 allow EASA Member States to
react immediately to a safety concern involving a product, person or organization subject to the provisions of
the regulation. In these cases, the Member State must immediately notify EASA, the European Commission
and other Member States of the measure taken and the reason thereof. Within one month, EASA must evaluate
the situation and decide to mandate the action for all Member States or, if EASA finds that the action is not
justified, the initiating Member State must revoke its action. The United Kingdom forwards the ADs for
Annex II aircraft for which it is the State of Design to all Contracting States. The UKCAA also has an
emergency AD e-mail subscription service.
3.2.8.7 With respect to ANS, audit findings identified by the UKCAA as part of the annual
surveillance plan are submitted to the ANSPs for their timely resolution. When safety concerns are raised, the
findings are monitored until the correction plan is finally implemented. In case of serious safety concerns,
inspectors are authorized to suspend operations or to put in place other measures like increased number of
audits or unplanned audits. Possible enforcement measures include suspension and withdrawal of licences and
certificates. In addition, all ANS technical staff employed in the areas of service provision (e.g. ATCOs,
meteorologists, AIS personnel, and flight crew) are obliged to report any safety occurrences through the
MORS. The taxonomy of events to be reported is clearly defined, and operations staff are trained to recognize
the events to be reported. The MORS reports are investigated by the UKCAA headquarters or by the ANS
provider, which sends the final report to the UKCAA for further action. A MORS report can also trigger an
unplanned audit of the concerned unit.
3.2.8.8 With respect to aerodromes, the ASD has a system in place to track deficiencies found during
inspections. Bird strike reports are collected and forwarded to ICAO, and the exchange of safety information
across the aerodrome industry is ensured by the ASD through safety reports, safety bulletins and seminars.
3.2.8.9 With respect to accident and incident investigation, the AAIB has a system in place for the
issuance of safety recommendations in the course or after the completion of its investigations as well as for
follow-up on these safety recommendations issued. In addition, the SIDD of the UKCAA ensures follow-up on
safety recommendations issued to the United Kingdom by other Contacting States. The AAIB is also
responsible for forwarding preliminary reports and accident/incident data reports to ICAO and to the entitled
States, as per Chapter 7 of Annex 13 to the Chicago Convention. However, preliminary reports and data
reports have not been systematically forwarded by the AAIB to the States concerned and/or ICAO as required.
3.2.8.10 The United Kingdom has put in place a mandatory occurrence reporting system (i.e. the
MORS) based on Article 142 of the ANO 2005. This same article also calls on the UKCAA to set up a system
of voluntary reporting. Guidance for both the mandatory and the voluntary reporting of occurrences has been
- 28 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
issued by the UKCAA in CAP 382. The MORS addresses all types of occurrence, including accidents, aircraft
operational incidents, air traffic incidents, airfield incidents, and aircraft technical defects. The SIDD under the
SRG is responsible for receipt, evaluation, and monitoring of follow up action, as well as dissemination,
storage and analysis of information from occurrence reports and any associated data. Reportable occurrences
have to be notified to the UKCAA within 96 hours.
3.2.8.11 The UKCAA encourages voluntary reporting of occurrences across the whole spectrum of the
United Kingdom’s civil aviation operations. The ANO 2005 imposes certain requirements on the UKCAA
with respect to the handling and processing of voluntary MORS reports. Therefore, voluntary reports are
published in a limited format in which information and data which are likely to identify the reporter are
removed. Reporters may request that their reports be kept confidential, and in that case, the report would not be
the subject of a publication, even after removal of the reporters’ identities. Internal procedures for managing
the MORS are outlined in the SIDD Procedures Manual. All occurrences received by the UKCAA are stored
in the MORS database. Recently, the UKCAA has started to maintain a second database which uses the
ECCAIRS (European Co-ordination Centre for Aviation Incident Reporting Systems) software. Based on the
analysis of the data collected, the UKCAA produces statistics and analyses, some of which are shared with the
industry and the public.
3.2.8.12 An additional reporting scheme has been in place in the United Kingdom since 1982, namely,
the Confidential Human Factors Incident Reporting Programme (CHIRP), a non-profit organization which is
partially funded by the UKCAA and established to provide a totally independent confidential reporting system
for all individuals employed in or associated with the transport industries, including civil aviation. CHIRP
welcomes safety-related reports from flight crew, air traffic control officers, licensed aircraft maintenance
engineers, cabin crew, and the general aviation community. The reporters’ identities are kept confidential.
Personal details are not retained and are returned to the reporters or destroyed on closure of their reports.
CHIRP publishes four quarterly newsletters entitled ―Feedback‖ (for general aviation, air transport, cabin crew,
and maritime transport). The newsletters publish statistics about reports received as well as a selection of
reports (with the reporters’ consent) along with CHIRP’s response in order to inform a wider audience of
relevant situations. These newsletters are published on the CHIRP website (http://www.chirp.co.uk).
3.3 The UK Overseas Territories
3.3.1 Critical element 1 ─ Primary aviation legislation
―The provision of a comprehensive and effective aviation law consistent with the environment
and complexity of the State’s aviation activity, and compliant with the requirements contained
in the Convention on International Civil Aviation.‖
3.3.1.1 The Civil Aviation Act 1949 (Overseas Territories) Order 1969 forms the primary aviation
legislation applicable in the Overseas Territories of the United Kingdom. Through this order, relevant
provisions of the Civil Aviation Act 1949 (which was subsequently replaced in the UK Main by the Civil
Aviation Act 1982) were extended to and made applicable in the Overseas Territories. In addition, parts of
United Kingdom’s Civil Aviation Act 1982 are extended to the Overseas Territories by the Civil Aviation
Act 1982 (Overseas Territories) Order 2001. These parts are Section 61, which is related to offences and
penalties, and Section 75, related to the investigation of accidents.
3.3.1.2 The Civil Aviation Act 1949 (Overseas Territories) Order 1969 provides for the making of
secondary legislation. The Air Navigation (Overseas Territories) Order 2007 (hereinafter referred to as the
AN(OT)O) is the highest level of civil aviation regulation applicable in the Overseas Territories. Last amended
- 29 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
on 9 January 2008, it encompasses all civil aviation-related fields and introduces detailed provisions to enable
the implementation of the ICAO SARPs in the Overseas Territories. In particular, Article 152 of the AN(OT)O
provides that before granting a certificate, licence or other document, the Governor of each Overseas Territory
may publish ―the requirements which he considers relevant to determining his satisfaction in respect of those
matters in the publication issued in the Territory concerned known as ―OTARs (Overseas Territories Aviation
Requirements).‖ Articles 125 to 133 define the offences under AN(OT)O, while Article 134 describing the
related penalties expands the scope of infraction to include contravention of ―provisions of regulations made or
instructions given‖ under AN(OT)O. Article 153 states that the Governor may designate ―a person‖ to carry
out his functions on the regulation and safety oversight of civil aviation in its Overseas Territory, and that
before making, revoking or varying a designation, he shall ―consult with, and take into account any advice
given by ASSI.‖
3.3.1.3 According to the Civil Aviation Authority (Overseas Territories) Directions 2003, as amended,
of the UK Secretary of State, Air Safety Support International Ltd (ASSI) is responsible for drafting
amendments of the AN(OT)O. Accordingly, ASSI has established internal procedures (in particular, the
Company Operating Procedure 37) in its Company and Regulatory Management System to outline the steps for
amending the AN(OT)O, including measures to ensure that relevant responses and views are solicited from
technical specialists and the Overseas Territories’ industry.
3.3.1.3.1 Amendments to the AN(OT)O are mostly driven by amendments to the Annexes to the
Chicago Convention. The amendment process begins with preparation of the draft amendment of the
AN(OT)O by ASSI. The draft legislation is then examined and adopted by the Foreign and Commonwealth
Office (FCO) of the UK Government and presented to the Privy Council for signature and subsequent
placement in the Houses of Parliament. It becomes effective 21 days after signature. Normally, the amendment
process takes several months depending on the complexity and scope of the draft legislation, but in urgent
cases, an amendment can be adopted within a few weeks.
3.3.1.4 The amended AN(OT)O is published by the Office of Public Sector Information (OPSI), and
is also available on the OPSI website (http://www.opsi.gov.uk) as well as on the ASSI website
(http://www.airsafety.aero).
3.3.1.5 Articles 19, 117 and 142 of the AN(OT)O, inter alia, grant the authorized personnel of the
regulatory authority in each Overseas Territory all the necessary access and inspection powers. ASSI inspectors
are provided with detailed credentials, which make reference to the empowering legislation. In addition,
various articles of the AN(OT)O provide for enforcement actions to be taken in the Overseas Territories, with
the related policies and procedures put in place by ASSI for this purpose.
3.3.1.6 The designated regulator in each Overseas Territory may grant an exemption against specific
provisions of the AN(OT)O. To apply for an exemption, an applicant should provide an appropriate risk
assessment relevant to the situation for which the exemption is sought and a description of the manner in which
the risks will be mitigated in accordance with its safety management system (SMS), where applicable.
Exemptions issued by ASSI are published on its website. In addition, it is the policy of Governors of Overseas
Territories, on behalf of the United Kingdom, to make reference to the OTARs when exercising their
discretionary powers. In particular, Governors and those designated by them will normally exercise these
powers to ensure the effective implementation of ICAO SARPs.
3.3.1.7 Overseas Territories may enter into agreements with ICAO Contracting States under the
provisions of Article 83 bis of the Chicago Convention if so authorized by the UK Government. This
authorization takes the form of an ―entrustment‖ issued by the UK FCO. Through Article 7(1) (for
- 30 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
airworthiness), Article 16(1) (for aircraft radio equipment), and Article 21(3) (for flight crew licences), as well
as the definition of ―State of the Operator‖ in Article 156, the AN(OT)O provides for the recognition of the
licences and certificates issued by the State of the Operator under an Article 83 bis agreement.
3.3.1.7.1 The AN(OT)O’s definition for State of the Operator is the same as the ICAO definition, with
the additional stipulation that the State of Registry has, by agreement with the State of the Operator, ―agreed to
transfer to it its functions and duties as State of registry in respect of that aircraft in relation to, in the case of
article 7(1) airworthiness, in the case of article 16(1), aircraft radio equipment, in the case of article 21(3),
flight crew licensing or in the case of article 49(1) radio licensing.‖
3.3.1.8 Overseas Territories may adopt additional legislation, without prejudice to the AN(OT)O. For
instance, in Bermuda, the local legislature promulgated the Civil Airports Act 1949 (last amended in 1989), to
establish the Bermuda Department of Civil Aviation (BDCA), as the entity in charge of the regulatory
oversight of civil aviation activities in Bermuda, and the Department of Airport Operations, which assumes
functions as aerodrome operator and ANS provider. The act also defines the powers and functions of the
Minister in charge of civil aviation within the Bermudian Government. Under Article 11 of the Civil Airports
Act 1949, enforcement actions may be taken for contravention of ―any provision of any regulations made under
this Act or any order, direction or requirement lawfully made, given or imposed by any person under the
authority of those regulations.‖ The Director of the BDCA is also authorized to issue exemptions to the
established requirements according to established procedures. A list of such exemptions granted can be found
on the BDCA website (http://www.dca.gov.bm).
3.3.1.9 With respect to personnel licensing, the essential legislative provisions are outlined in the
AN(OT)O, specifically Part II, ―Airworthiness and Equipment of Aircraft,‖ Part III, ―Aircraft Crew and
Licensing,‖ and Part XI, ―Licensing of Air Traffic Controllers.‖ The AN(OT)O also lays down the
requirements for the validation of foreign licences, for exemptions, and for the suspension and revocation of
licences and certificates.
3.3.1.10 With respect to aircraft operations, the legal framework is provided by the AN(OT)O,
specifically Part VI, ―Operation of Aircraft,‖ Part VII, ―Air operator certification and commercial air transport
operations,‖ Part VIII, ―Aerial Work,‖ and Part IX, ―General Aviation.‖ The AN(OT)O also outlines the duties
and responsibilities of the pilot-in-command, the requirements for the issuance and renewal of an aviation
document as well as the criteria for suspension or revocation of an aviation document. The AN(OT)O also lays
down requirements for the inspection and surveillance of air operators as well as the enforcement of rules
relating to the operation of aircraft. For commercial air transport operations, an approval is necessary and an air
operator certificate (AOC) issued after requirements are met. To conduct aerial work operations, air operators
need specific aerial work certificates, while for general aviation activities, a specific approval is requested only
for specific categories of aircraft or if more than three aircraft are used. Exemptions are granted based on
Article 146 of the AN(OT)O.
3.3.1.11 Requirements for the transport of dangerous goods by air are outlined in the AN(OT)O,
notably Article 58 and Schedule 10, ―The Air Navigation (Dangerous Goods) Regulations.‖ In this Order, the
ICAO Technical Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air (Doc 9284) referred to and
applied by ASSI and in relation to the concerned OTARs is the 2007-2008 English language edition. Under
Article 58 of the AN(OT)O, contravention or failure to comply with the provisions in Schedule 10 constitutes
an ―offence.‖ Enforcement rests with the authority designated by the Governor.
3.3.1.12 With respect to airworthiness, the AN(OT)O outlines provisions on the registration and
marking of aircraft (Part I), the airworthiness and equipment of aircraft (Part II), air operator certification and
- 31 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
commercial air transport (Part VII), documents and records (Part XIV), power to prevent aircraft from flying
(Part XVII, Article 141) and right to access to aerodromes and other places (Part XVII, Article 142). In
addition, the Air Navigation (Overseas Territories) (Environmental Standards) Order 2004 lays down the
requirements addressing the provisions of Annex 16 to the Chicago Convention.
3.3.1.13 With respect to ANS, the legal framework for the Overseas Territories is laid down in the
AN(OT)O and more specifically in the following Parts:
a) Part X, ―Air Traffic Services,‖ Articles 86-90;
b) Part XI, ―Licensing of Air Traffic Controllers,‖ Articles 91-100;
c) Part XII, ―Aeronautical Telecommunications Service,‖ Articles 101 and 102; and
d) Schedule 8, ―Rules of the Air.‖
3.3.1.14 The legislative framework for the provision of air traffic services and aeronautical
telecommunication services is laid down in Articles 86 and 101 of the AN(OT)O, which stipulate the
requirement of approval granted by the Governor for the provision of these services.
3.3.1.15 To ensure implementation of the Chicago Convention and its Annexes, Article 155 of the
AN(OT)O requires the Governor to issue instructions or publish requirements or make arrangements ―as are
necessary, requisite or expedient‖ for the purpose of ―regulating and securing the safety of international air
navigation‖ in accordance with the provisions of section 8(1) of the Civil Aviation Act 1949. In particular,
Article 155(2) stipulates that the Governor shall ensure the provision of meteorological services, availability of
aeronautical charts, establishment and provision of search and rescue (SAR) services, as well as the provision
of aeronautical information service either through joint service or delegation to a non-governmental agency.
Under the same article, the details of such services and arrangements are to be included in the Aeronautical
Information Publication (AIP) relating to the relevant Territory.
3.3.1.16 With respect to aerodromes, the AN(OT)O provides the legal basis for the certification of
aerodromes in the Overseas Territories. Article 103 of the Order requires air operators to use certificated or
notified aerodromes, while Article 105 outlines the requirement and criteria for the certification of aerodromes
and also authorizes the Governor to grant an aerodrome certificate. Articles 121 and 122 of the Order prescribe
the validity of aerodrome certificate and other documents as well as the conditions for their variation,
suspension or revocation.
3.3.1.17 With respect to accident and incident investigations, the legal framework stems from the Civil
Aviation Act 1982 of the UK Main, specifically Section 75 which is extended to the Overseas Territories under
the Civil Aviation Act 1982 (Overseas Territories) Order 2001. According to Schedule 1(2) of the Order, the
Governor may make regulations for the investigation of accidents ―occurring in or over the Territory or
elsewhere to an aircraft registered in the Territory.‖ The issue of occurrence reporting of accidents and
incidents is addressed by Article 139 of the AN(OT)O, which requires various parties to report occurrences (as
defined in paragraph (4) of Article 139) to the Governors of the Overseas Territories.
3.3.2 Critical element 2 ─ Specific operating regulations
―The provision of adequate regulations to address, at a minimum, national requirements
emanating from the primary aviation legislation and providing for standardized operational
procedures, equipment and infrastructures (including safety management and training
systems), in conformance with the Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) contained
in the Annexes to the Convention on International Civil Aviation.
- 32 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
Note.— The term ‘regulations’ is used in a generic sense to include instructions, rules, edicts,
directives, sets of laws, requirements, policies, orders, etc.”
3.3.2.1 Most civil aviation requirements applicable in the Overseas Territories are issued in the form
of OTARs, which are developed and published by ASSI on behalf of the Governors of the Overseas Territories
in support of the Governor’s powers outlined in the AN(OT)O. The first batch of OTARs addressed the
provisions of Annexes 1, 6 and 8 to the Chicago Convention, while the second batch addressed the provisions
of Annexes 2, 7, 10, 11, 13 (part), 14, 16 and 18 to the Chicago Convention. All OTARs are available on the
ASSI website (http://www.airsafety.aero).
3.3.2.1 Most civil aviation requirements applicable in the Overseas Territories are issued in the form
of OTARs, which are developed and published by ASSI on behalf of the Governors of the Overseas Territories
in support of the Governor’s powers outlined in the AN(OT)O. The first batch of OTARs addressed the
provisions of Annexes 1, 6 and 8 to the Chicago Convention, while the second batch addressed the provisions
of Annexes 2, 4, 7, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 18 to the Chicago Convention. All OTARs are available on the
ASSI website.
3.3.2.2 OTARs provide details of means of compliance with the AN(OT)O which are acceptable to
the Governors, ASSI and the UK Government. Established as part of the regulatory structure according to
Article 152 of the AN(OT)O, the OTARs describe the way in which aircraft operators, aviation personnel and
providers of services can obtain approvals and licences, and the process through which these are maintained to
ensure adequate levels of safety and internationally-agreed standards are met. They are not intended to
supersede or conflict with statutory requirements, and so the obligation to comply with statutory requirements
remains. The appropriate authority may accept an alternative means of compliance, provided that the applicant
can show that the level of safety will not be reduced below that intended by the requirement.
3.3.2.3 OTARs come into force in an Overseas Territory once they have been ―gazetted‖ (i.e. formally
notified as ―means of compliance‖) by the Governor. The designated regulator in each Overseas Territory
specifies the date at which particular elements of the OTARs become effective, together with any changeover
period. The process for amending OTARs includes consultation with the Overseas Territory Aviation
Authorities (OTAAs) and the civil aviation industry concerned. The method and responsibilities for the
amendment of the OTARs are described in ASSI’s Company Operating Procedure 23.
3.3.2.4 ASSI is responsible for identifying differences between the legislation, regulations and the
ICAO SARPs in the Overseas Territories and has developed Company Operating Procedure 29 for that
purpose. This procedure explains how ASSI produces the list of significant differences with the ICAO SARPs,
which are to be published subsequently in the Overseas Territories’ AIPs. However, such a list has not been
published in the AIPs of the Overseas Territories.
3.3.2.5 While all published OTARs have been gazetted in the Overseas Territories, not all are
applicable as yet. Some other requirements that were in place even before the OTARs had been developed are
still in use in some of the Overseas Territories. However, all Overseas Territories are required to draw up a
transition plan to eventually make the OTARs the only requirements applicable in the Overseas Territories, in
addition to the AN(OT)O.
3.3.2.6 A safety programme has been developed for the Overseas Territories as part of the UK State
Safety Programme (SSP). First issued on 7 April 2008, this SSP for the Overseas Territories has two parts:
- 33 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
1) Part 1 provides an overview of the legislative and regulatory arrangements that are
applicable to the Overseas Territories, and
2) Part 2, the ―All-OT Safety Plan,‖ focuses on operations and provides linkage between
the national regulatory planning system and the regulated organizations by outlining
safety objectives suitable for adoption in the SMS of the operators and service
providers.
3.3.2.7 In Bermuda, aside from the OTARs, other ―means of compliance‖ that are still in place
include the Bermuda Airworthiness Requirements (BARs), the UKCAA Civil Aviation Publications (CAPs),
as well as some EU legislation (such as EASA Part-145 for maintenance organization approvals). The BDCA
has posted on its website (http://www.dca.gov.bm) a ―Transition Plan‖ which provides the dates of
implementation of the OTARs. As per this transition plan, all OTARs will become the only applicable
requirements by April 2010.
3.3.2.8 With respect to personnel licensing, ASSI has developed requirements to implement the
provisions of Annex 1 to the Chicago Convention, with the entire set made available to the public on the ASSI
website (http://www.airsafety.aero):
a) OTAR Part 61 — Pilot Licences and Ratings;
b) OTAR Part 63 — Flight Engineer Licences and Ratings;
c) OTAR Part 65 — Air Traffic Service Personnel Licences and Ratings;
d) OTAR Part 66 — Aircraft Maintenance Personnel Licensing; and
e) OTAR Part 67 — Medical Standards and Recognition of Medical Examiners.
3.3.2.9 With respect to approval of training organizations and language proficiency evaluation, no
requirements have been developed or implemented in the Overseas Territories. ASSI has however developed a
draft plan to implement language proficiency requirements in the Overseas Territories.
3.3.2.10 With respect to aircraft operations, a comprehensive set of requirements has been developed in
the form of OTARs, including:
a) OTAR Part 91 — General Operating Instructions;
b) OTAR Part 92 — Carriage of Dangerous Goods;
c) OTAR Part 119 — Air Operator Certification;
d) OTAR Part 121 — Commercial Air Transport Operations — Large Aeroplanes;
e) OTAR Part 125 — Complex General Aviation Including Corporate Operations; and
f) OTAR Part 135 — Commercial Air Transport Operations — Helicopters and Small
Aeroplanes.
3.3.2.10.1 However, for Annex 6, Part I, to the Chicago Convention, the new standards that were adopted
on 3 March 2008 and included in Amendment 32 have not been addressed by ASSI. The OTARs also do not
include requirements regarding the carriage on board of a true copy of the AOC and corresponding operations
specifications, including leased aircraft.
3.3.2.11 With respect to airworthiness, ASSI has developed and outlined the relevant requirements in
various OTARs, including the following:
- 34 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
a) OTAR Part 21 — Certification of Products;
b) OTAR Part 36 — Aircraft Environmental Standards;
c) OTAR Part 39 — Continued Airworthiness Requirements;
d) OTAR Part 43 — General Maintenance Requirements;
e) OTAR Part 47 — Aircraft Registration and Markings; and
f) OTAR Part 145 — Aircraft Maintenance Organization Approval.
3.3.2.11.1 In particular, OTAR Part 21 provides for acceptance of type certificates issued by the Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA) of the United States, Transport Canada, a Full Member State of the Joint
Aviation Authorities (JAA) or EASA in the Overseas Territories. Overall, the OTARs provide a
comprehensive regulatory basis for aircraft airworthiness.
3.3.2.12 In Bermuda, during the transition period, requirements other than the OTARs are in place and
are used as acceptable means of compliance, including the BARs and EASA Part-21 and Part-145. Until the
transition to OTAR is complete, the co-existence of these various means of compliance does not provide for a
consistent regulatory basis. In addition, there are no requirements in place for the implementation of the
provisions of Annex 6 to the Chicago Convention regarding the contents of the maintenance control manual,
the observation of human factors principles in the design and application of maintenance programmes, the
contents of the maintenance programme, extended twin-engine operations (ETOPS) approvals, and for the
release to service by an approved maintenance organization of aircraft operating under an AOC.
3.3.2.13 With respect to ANS, ASSI has developed and outlined requirements in various OTARs to
enable the implementation in the Overseas Territories of the provisions of the Annexes to the Chicago
Convention, with a view to meeting the certification requirements of the service providers in conformance with
Article 155 of the AN(OT)O. Whilst guidance material in the form of OTACs is in place, requirements with
respect to compliance with Annexes 3, 4, 12 and 15 to the Chicago Convention have not been developed and
promulgated.
3.3.2.13.1 OTAR Part 171 — Aeronautical Telecommunication Services prescribes the requirements
governing the approval of aeronautical telecommunications services in relation to their performance, provision,
and safety management. The requirements are the means by which the applicant will be able to satisfy the
Governor as to the fulfilment of their legal obligations in respect of the design, commissioning and operation of
aeronautical telecommunication services.
3.3.2.13.2 OTAR Part 172 — Air Traffic Service Organization Approval prescribes the requirements
governing the provision of air traffic services within the sovereign airspace of the Overseas Territories and for
the approval and operation of organizations providing air traffic services in the sovereign airspace of the
Overseas Territories excluding those portions of airspace that are:
a) within the flight information region (FIR) administered by another ICAO Contracting
State in accordance with the terms of Regional Air Navigation Agreements, or
b) the subject of a written agreement between an organization responsible for the provision
of ATS in adjacent airspace which delegates the provision of ATS to that organization.
3.3.2.13.3 OTAR Part 173 — Flight Checking Organisation Approval outlines requirements regarding
flight calibration organizations in relation to their organization, equipment maintenance and safety
management.
- 35 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
3.3.2.13.4 OTAR Part 176 — Instrument Approach Procedure Approval addresses the requirements with
respect to approval, maintenance, operating chartage, promulgation and maintenance of instrument approach
procedures.
3.3.2.14 With respect to aerodromes, OTAR Part 139 — Certification of Aerodromes, first developed
by ASSI in July 2005 and last amended in September 2007, lays down the detailed regulatory requirements
governing the certification, management, operation and maintenance of aerodromes in the Overseas Territories.
It also sets out technical standards consistent with Annex 14, Volumes I and II, to the Chicago Convention,
except for those on rescue and fire fighting which are described in OTAR Part 140 — Rescue and Fire
Fighting Services (RFFS) Approval.
3.3.2.15 With respect to accident and incident investigations, the Governors in all of the Overseas
Territories have drawn up the relevant regulations pursuant to the provisions of the Civil Aviation Act 1982
(Overseas Territories) Order 2001. For example, in Bermuda, the applicable regulation is the Civil Aviation
(Investigation of Air Accidents and Incidents) Regulations 2001, which entered into force on 1 June 2001. All
of the regulations in the Overseas Territories contain provisions on the appointment of Inspectors of Air
Accidents. While the actual wording of the applicable regulations varies slightly from territory to territory, in
general terms they all provide as follows: ―For the purpose of carrying out investigations into accidents and
incidents to which these Regulations apply, the Governor shall appoint persons as Inspectors of Air
Accidents.‖
3.3.2.16 The regulations further provide that the investigators (referred to as ―inspectors‖) may seek
such advice or assistance as they may deem necessary and, without prejudice thereto, the Governor may
appoint persons to assist any investigator in a particular investigation. However, while the investigation
regulations promulgated in the Overseas Territories contain all essential provisions to enable the conduct of
investigations, they have not been reviewed and updated to reflect the fact that the Air Accident Investigation
Branch (AAIB) has been formally designated as the entity responsible for all accident and incident
investigations in the Overseas Territories. Consequently, these investigation regulations include a number of
provisions on the notification and investigation of accidents and incidents which no longer correspond to the
arrangements in place.
3.3.2.17 With respect to occurrence reporting, the applicable requirements are outlined in OTAR
Part 13 — Occurrence Reporting, which gives effect to the legal obligations laid down in the AN(OT)O
regarding the reporting of occurrences.
3.3.3 Critical element 3 ─ State civil aviation system and safety oversight functions
―The establishment of a civil aviation authority (CAA) and/or other relevant authorities or
government agencies, headed by a Chief Executive Officer, supported by the appropriate and
adequate technical and non-technical staff and provided with adequate financial resources.
The State authority must have stated safety regulatory functions, objectives and safety
policies.
Note.— The term ‘State civil aviation system’ is used in a generic sense to include all
aviation-related authorities with aviation safety oversight responsibility which may be
established by the State as separate entities, such as: CAA, airport authorities, air traffic
service authorities, accident investigation authority, meteorological authority, etc.”
- 36 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
3.3.3.1 ASSI was formally established on 1 April 2003 and is funded by the UK Department for
Transport (DfT). The Civil Aviation Authority (Overseas Territories) Directions 2003, which came into force
on 2 January 2003 and has been amended since, states that ASSI has the following functions:
―a) regularly to audit aviation safety regulation in each Overseas Territory and to advise the
Secretary of State, the Governor of that Territory and those responsible for aviation
safety regulation in that Territory on whether that Territory is complying with the United
Kingdoms obligations under the Chicago Convention, on the standard of aviation safety
regulation in that Territory, on the adequacy of the resources employed in that Territory
on such regulation and on any remedial measures that may be necessary;‖
―b) to produce, in respect of each function of each Governor of an Overseas Territory under
the Air Navigation (Overseas Territories) Order 2001 (which was amended since)
which provides for him to issue a certificate, licence or other document if he is satisfied
as to specified matters, the means of compliance which will enable that Governor to be
and remain satisfied as to those matters;‖
―c) to produce and submit to the Secretary of State draft amendments to the Air Navigation
(Overseas Territories) Order 2001 as and when necessary and, in particular, so as to
enable timely effect to be given to Standards and Recommended Practices contained in
Annexes to the Chicago Convention;‖
―d) to provide assistance, training and advice to those responsible for aviation safety
regulation in each Overseas Territory;‖ and
―e) to carry out aviation safety regulation functions in an Overseas Territory:
(i) when so designated by the Governor of that Territory under the powers granted to
him by the Air Navigation (Overseas Territories) Order 2001; or
(ii) where no other person has been designated by the Governor to carry out those
functions.‖
3.3.3.1.1 The Civil Aviation Authority (Overseas Territories) Directions 2003, as amended, also
mandates the UKCAA to undertake at least annually an audit of the activities of ASSI and to submit a report
thereon to the Secretary of State.
3.3.3.2 ASSI is managed by a Chief Executive Officer (CEO), who reports to the ASSI Board. ASSI
has its headquarter office in Crawley, near Gatwick Airport, and a regional office in the British Virgin Islands
(BVI). Procedures have been established for coordination and standardization between the Crawley and the
BVI offices of ASSI, and regular meetings are held both within ASSI, and between ASSI, the DfT, the
UKCAA and the OTAAs.
3.3.3.3 The duties and responsibilities of the ASSI inspectors are documented as part of ASSI’s
Company and Regulatory Management System, and these Inspectors have been issued credentials to provide
access to aircraft and all relevant facilities. ASSI is able to recruit and retain qualified and experienced staff,
and the organization plays an active role in the recruitment process. However, the current number of technical
staff is insufficient and does not enable the organization to fulfil all its responsibilities, both as direct regulator
and as the entity in charge of overseeing compliance with the ICAO SARPs across the Overseas Territories.
- 37 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
3.3.3.4 The capability and competence of all of the Overseas Territories were initially assessed in
2003/2004 and it was based on these assessments that the Governors made the initial designations of functions
under Article 153(1) of the AN(OT)O. In accordance with Directions from the UK Secretary of State, ASSI
continues to assess the oversight systems established in the Overseas Territories where OTAAs have been
designated to carry out regulatory activities. In Bermuda, the Governor has designated the BDCA as both the
regulatory and the safety oversight authorities for all civil aviation activities in Bermuda and for Bermuda-
registered aircraft.
3.3.3.5 Established as a department under the Ministry of Tourism and Transport of Bermuda, the
BDCA is wholly funded by the Bermudian Government. Job descriptions have been developed and credentials
issued for all technical staff of the BDCA. The organization and internal processes of the BDCA are
documented in the Quality Assurance Manual of the BDCA, which was first issued by the Director of the
BDCA on 1 April 2007 and last amended on 1 February 2009. The recruitment of the BDCA staff is managed
by the Department of Human Resources of the Bermudian Government, but the BDCA plays an active role in
the recruitment process. The BDCA has highly qualified and experienced staff. However, with an increased
workload, mainly due to a rapidly expanding aircraft register (the aircraft register has more than doubled over
the last three years), the number of technical staff within the BDCA is insufficient to enable it to effectively
fulfil all its responsibilities.
3.3.3.6 With respect to personnel licensing, ASSI employs a specialist who shares licensing
responsibilities with the other inspectors involved in operations, airworthiness and ATS. In Bermuda, licensing
responsibilities are divided between several inspectors and officers who are also involved in operations,
airworthiness and ATS.
3.3.3.6.1 No flight examiners and no medical examiners have been designated yet in any of the
Overseas Territories. Flight checks and medical certificates are recognized if issued by flight examiners and
designated medical examiners approved by an ICAO Contracting State. Given the workload of the BDCA, it
does not have sufficient human resources in the field of personnel licensing to carry out its functions in an
effective and timely manner.
3.3.3.7 With respect to aircraft operations, ASSI does not have sufficient staff, with only one flight
operations inspector who is responsible for safety oversight tasks and for drafting regulatory requirements. In
addition, this inspector is also responsible for the safety oversight of foreign air operators (including the
conduct of ramp checks). While check airmen are used occasionally, there is no procedure in place for the
delegation of any of the inspection or supervision responsibilities. ASSI also employs a dangerous goods
inspector.
3.3.3.7.1 With respect to Bermuda, there is only one flight operations inspector performing all the tasks
related to regulatory and surveillance work. Given the level of work involved, this is insufficient for the
effective performance of the duties. According to the established job descriptions, dangerous goods
responsibilities are carried out by the Flight Operations Inspector and one of the Operations Officers. There are
two Operations Officers, one handling dangerous goods and one handling ANS and AGA.
3.3.3.8 With respect to airworthiness, ASSI is designated as the direct regulator for the airworthiness
area in six Overseas Territories and related activities are assigned to its Airworthiness Section. ASSI inspectors
are responsible for providing assistance and training to the OTAAs’ airworthiness inspectors for the
implementation of the OTARs. ASSI does not however delegate any airworthiness tasks.
- 38 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
3.3.3.8.1 Regarding Bermuda, the BDCA has a team of airworthiness inspectors which reports directly
to the director of the BDCA. The BDCA has also delegated airworthiness-related tasks to a number of
designated airworthiness inspectors. However, the current number of airworthiness inspectors is insufficient to
support the approvals issued by the BDCA.
3.3.3.9 With respect to ANS, full-time inspectors are employed both by ASSI and the BDCA.
However, ASSI has a shortage of qualified inspectors, in particular, in the fields of AIS, MET and SAR. As for
the BDCA, it has only one officer responsible for the oversight of both ANS and aerodromes.
3.3.3.10 The Overseas Territories are located within the FIRs of Miami, New York, Kingston
(Jamaica), Piarco (Trinidad and Tobago) and San Juan (Puerto Rico). The Falklands Islands have their own
FIR/UIR GND/FL500 with a radius of 150 NM. Provision of ANS is ensured by ANS providers which are
approved by the regulatory body designated by the Governor. The Governors of Bermuda and the Cayman
Islands have designated their respective responsibilities to the local OTAAs.
3.3.3.11 The provision of ATS in the Overseas Territories is limited to aerodrome control service only,
and in some cases, approach control service. ATS in the wider terminal control areas and control zones are
provided by the parent area control centre/approach control service. PANS-OPS services are normally
contracted out and the service providers are certified by ASSI.
3.3.3.12 For the Overseas Territories, SMS guidance is laid down in two Overseas Territory Aviation
Circulars (OTACs), namely ―Safety Management Systems‖ and ―Documenting the SMS.‖ An SMS evaluation
policy has been developed, and the SMS evaluation plan provides for implementation by stages.
Comprehensive and stage-by-stage SMS evaluation procedures have also been developed and these are in use
and also available on the ASSI website. The designated regulator will, in the context of SMS evaluations,
consider the acceptability of the safety objectives and activities set by the regulated organization, including the
degree of measurability that has been provided (i.e. safety performance indicators (SPI) and safety performance
targets (SPT)) before agreeing to the acceptable level of safety performance. All the information described
above is also posted on the ASSI website.
3.3.3.13 The AIS Unit at Piarco Airport, Trinidad, operated by Trinidad and Tobago Civil Aviation
Authority, is charged with the production of the AIPs for the Eastern Caribbean region (including Anguilla,
BVI and Montserrat). However, the AIS does not have a quality system in place. For Bermuda, the production
of the Bermuda AIP has been contracted out to the United States firm, Jeppesen Sanderson.
3.3.3.14 The ANS Telecommunications and Navigation Section based in Antigua provides CNS to
Anguilla, Montserrat and BVI. For Bermuda, CNS is provided by BAS Serco on behalf of the Department of
Airport Operations (DAO). The aeronautical telecommunications service in the Cayman Islands and Turks and
Caicos Islands is provided by the Cayman Islands Airports Authority and the Turks and Caicos Islands
Airports Authority, respectively, while the Falkland Islands’ telecommunications service is provided by Stanley
Airport. All providers hold current approvals issued by ASSI or the designated OTAA in line with the
requirements of OTAR Part 171.
3.3.3.15 The provision of meteorological services in the Overseas Territories is usually contracted out.
However, both ASSI and the BDCA do not ensure that an agreement has been established between ATS and
MET authorities for the provision of MET services.
3.3.3.16 Regarding SAR, the United Kingdom has signed an MOU with the United States and Canada
regarding the provision of SAR services as well as the establishment of cooperative arrangements among the
- 39 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
three States in accordance with their assumed responsibilities under the Chicago Convention and the
International Convention on Maritime Search and Rescue 1979 and in accordance with Annex 12 to the
Chicago Convention. The MOU states that the subordinate elements of each State may engage in further
coordination and cooperation through the establishment of operational MOUs and procedures. As the MOU
covers all of the United Kingdom’s Overseas Territories in the North Atlantic and Caribbean Regions, these
Overseas Territories fall within the SAR regions for which the United States has responsibility (except for
Montserrat which is a signatory to the Eastern Caribbean SAR Agreement). However, neither ASSI nor any of
the Overseas Territories has concluded formal written agreements for the coordination of the provision of SAR
services with neighbouring States at the operational level.
3.3.3.17 With respect to aerodromes, ASSI employs full-time aerodrome inspectors, who are
responsible for the development of aerodrome regulations and standards for the Overseas Territories as well as
for the certification and surveillance of aerodromes in those Overseas Territories where ASSI is the designated
regulator for aerodromes. In most Overseas Territories, the local Government is involved in the provision of
aerodrome facilities and operations, but there is a distinct separation between the aerodrome operator and the
regulatory authority. In Bermuda, the BDCA has one aerodrome inspector, who reports directly to Director of
the BDCA.
3.3.3.18 With respect to accident and incident investigations, the AAIB is designated by each Governor
of the Overseas Territories as the entity responsible for all aircraft accident and incident investigations in a
letter appointing the Chief Inspector of the AAIB as the Chief Inspector of Air Accidents in the concerned
Overseas Territory. These letters of appointment also acknowledge the intention of the Chief Inspector of the
AAIB to appoint one or more investigators from within the AAIB to undertake an investigation in any specific
case and confirm the Governor’s agreement to such appointment. Prior to this designation, however, the
Governors of the Overseas Territories had signed agreements with the AAIB to ensure the provision of
necessary assistance by the AAIB. These agreements have remained in place even as the AAIB is now formally
in charge of investigations in the Overseas Territories.
3.3.3.19 As part of the current arrangements, an Accident Investigation Manager (AIM) may be
appointed by the Governor to assist the AAIB in the conduct of investigations. In particular, in cases where the
AAIB decides to deploy a team on the site of the accident, the AIM is responsible for managing the
investigation and preserving all relevant evidence pending the arrival of the AAIB investigators. In Bermuda,
two inspectors of the BDCA have been appointed as authorized persons to carry out investigation-related tasks.
However, as the AAIB has been formally designated as the entity responsible for all aircraft accident and
incident investigations in the Overseas Territories (the Governor appointed the Chief Inspector of the AAIB on
25 September 2008), these inspectors thus carry out the functions of the AIM, but their job descriptions have
not been updated to reflect their current functions and responsibilities, and they have not been provided with
the proper credentials to perform their investigation-related functions.
3.3.4 Critical element 4 ─ Technical personnel qualification and training
―The establishment of minimum requirements for knowledge and experience of the technical
personnel performing safety oversight functions and the provision of appropriate training to
maintain and enhance their competence at the desired level. The training should include initial
and recurrent (periodic) training.‖
3.3.4.1 ASSI has established minimum experience and knowledge requirements for the recruitment of
its technical staff, and it has qualified staff. Regarding training, ASSI has two part-time training staff including
a training manager, who plays a central role in coordinating, planning and monitoring the training to be
- 40 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
provided to the staff. Comprehensive training records of the ASSI staff are maintained by the training manager.
Formal training programmes have been established for all technical job positions within ASSI, and training
plans are drawn up regularly, with training needs assessed every six months. The training programmes and
training plans are well implemented.
3.3.4.2 Concerning the BDCA, it adheres to the personnel recruitment, selection and hiring policies of
the Government of Bermuda in accordance with the procedures established by the Bermuda Department of
Human Resources. The BDCA plays an active role in the selection of its staff and has been able to recruit
qualified staff. However, minimum qualification requirements have not yet been formally established for all
technical staff positions within the BDCA. As for training policy, the BDCA has developed one which is
documented in its Quality Assurance Manual. As part of this policy, training needs are identified for all
employees of the BDCA, and the training to be provided is planned accordingly. However, formal and
comprehensive training programmes detailing the type of training to be provided have not been developed for
the various technical staff positions of the BDCA. In addition, the BDCA does not systematically keep
comprehensive training records of all technical staff (including records of their on the job training).
3.3.4.3 With respect to accident and incident investigations, a training programme was recently
established describing the type of training to be provided to the AIMs designated in the Overseas Territories.
However, this training programme is not yet fully implemented. In addition, no mechanism is in place to ensure
that the AIMs have undergone on-the-job training before being assigned investigation-related tasks.
3.3.5 Critical element 5 ─ Technical guidance, tools and the provision of
safety critical information
―The provision of technical guidance (including processes and procedures), tools (including
facilities and equipment) and safety critical information, as applicable, to the technical
personnel to enable them to perform their safety oversight functions in accordance with
established requirements and in a standardized manner. In addition, this includes the
provision of technical guidance by the oversight authority to the aviation industry on the
implementation of applicable regulations and instructions.‖
3.3.5.1 Both ASSI and BDCA staff are provided with all the necessary facilities, tools as well as
transportation and communications means (including access to Internet) for them to perform their tasks
effectively. ASSI and the BDCA have also established technical libraries stocked with the necessary and up-to-
date technical documentation. However, it was noted that the airworthiness inspectors of the BDCA do not
have access to the relevant documents from the organizations responsible for the type design needed to support
the approvals for aircraft on the Bermudian register.
3.3.5.2 To provide additional information and guidance on how to meet the requirements established
under the AN(OT)O and the OTARs, ASSI has issued a set of OTACs. It has also developed guidance material
for its staff and the staff of the OTAAs through its Company Regulatory and Management System, in which
Company Procedures and Technical Procedures are described in the Policy and Co-ordination Manual
(PacMan). All documentation is available on the ASSI website.
3.3.5.3 With respect to personnel licensing, ASSI has developed detailed technical procedures for the
issuance of personnel licences. These procedures are contained in PacMan, Part 4 ―Technical Procedures,‖
Section 4 ―Personnel Licensing‖ and are available on the ASSI website. Licensing records related to personnel
licences issued by ASSI are maintained in hard copy under strict access control. Medical files are kept by the
medical examiners.
- 41 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
3.3.5.3.1 In Bermuda, the BDCA has developed a Personnel Licensing Manual, which spells out the
specific procedures for the validation of flight crew and aircraft maintenance engineer licences and for the
issuance of air traffic controller licences. Medical files for the air traffic controllers are kept in the Bermuda
office of the medical examiner.
3.3.5.4 With respect to aircraft operations, ASSI has issued technical guidance material in PacMan.
However, the available procedures and checklists do not cover all the activities performed by ASSI and the
OTAAs. Guidance material has also been issued for the use of the industry, and several OTACs related to
aircraft operations are available on the ASSI website. With respect to dangerous goods, OTAC 91-3/92-1
(―Carriage of Dangerous Goods‖) provides detailed guidance on the training of staff involved in the safe
transport of dangerous goods by air as well as the staff involved in the carriage of passengers or cargo.
3.3.5.4.1 Regarding Bermuda, the Flight Operations Inspector Manual issued by the BDCA outlines all
the applicable procedures for the issuance of certificates and approvals as well as for the conduct of inspections
of AOC holders and foreign air operators. Detailed checklists have also been developed for the flight
operations inspector. Procedures related to dangerous goods have been developed, but they are not sufficiently
detailed.
3.3.5.5 With respect to airworthiness, ASSI inspectors have access to all design organization
documentation and continuing airworthiness information (in both soft and hard copies) through the UKCAA
library. They are also provided with guidance material to carry out their duties and responsibilities in all areas
ranging from aircraft airworthiness certification to inspections of approved maintenance organizations (AMOs)
and of AOCs. However, some procedures are still missing, including those for the approval of repairs,
approvals of minimum equipment list (MEL), ETOPS and reduced vertical separation minimum (RVSM) as
well as inspections of AOC holders, foreign operators and AMOs.
3.3.5.5.1 For Bermuda, the BDCA has developed an airworthiness handbook which outlines procedures
for its airworthiness inspectors. However, some procedures are missing, including those for developing
mandatory airworthiness action on a product for which it is not the State of Design, export of aeronautical
products, review and approval of maintenance control manual, special operations approval, review of the
maintenance procedures manual, and policy to conduct inspections of AOC holders and foreign air operators.
In addition, although more than 250 Bermuda-registered aircraft are operated by foreign operators under the
provisions of Article 83 bis of the Chicago Convention, there are no procedures in place regarding the transfer
of the State of Registry’s responsibility for the issuance of flight crew licences to the State of the Operator.
Moreover, the BDCA has not developed industry guidelines with regard to the authenticity and serviceability
of aircraft parts. Guidelines on the identification of acceptable international standards for specialized
maintenance activities (such as welding of aeronautical products and non-destructive testing) are also
unavailable.
3.3.5.6 In the area of ANS, guidance material has been issued by ASSI and the BDCA. In particular,
ASSI has published procedures to assist the inspectors in their ATS and CNS-related tasks as well as
procedures for the licensing and continuing competence assessment of ATS staff. OTACs dealing with
competence assessments have been developed by ASSI to provide guidance to the industry.
3.3.5.7 With respect to aerodromes, guidance material and technical procedures are outlined in several
OTACs and in PacMan. Presently, ASSI is in the process of finalizing an aerodrome inspector’s manual to
consolidate the existing technical procedures with some new procedures still under development. The technical
procedures provide guidance to aerodrome inspectors for the initial certification of aerodromes, continuing
surveillance of aerodrome operations and enforcement measures. Safety critical information is disseminated in
- 42 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
various ways, including publication in the AIP and Notices to Airmen (NOTAMs). Regarding Bermuda, the
BDCA has developed the Safety Oversight Operations Manual, which outlines procedures for aerodrome
certification and surveillance.
3.3.5.8 With respect to accident and incident investigations, the AAIB has developed some guidance
material which is found mostly in the AAIB Operations Manual and consists of procedures and guidelines for
the notification and investigation of aircraft accidents and incidents. However, these procedures have not yet
been disseminated to the concerned OTAAs. In the current system, each Overseas Territory is responsible for
providing the necessary equipment and tools to the staff which will be responsible for the first response after an
accident (in particular, the collection and preservation of all relevant evidence). In Bermuda, while two
inspectors of the BDCA have been named for the task and have received some training to carry out the
functions of AIMs, the equipment that was provided to them (i.e. investigation equipment and protective
equipment) is still insufficient. Procedures and guidelines for managing aircraft accident and incident
investigations are outlined in the BDCA’s Air Accident and Serious Incident Investigation Manual, which was
first issued on 10 June 2005 and last amended on 8 January 2009. The manual however has not been reviewed
and updated to reflect the fact that the AAIB has since been formally designated as the body responsible for all
aircraft accident and incident investigations in Bermuda.
3.3.5.9 With respect to occurrence reporting, ASSI has issued OTAC 13-1 (―Occurrence Reporting‖)
to provide detailed guidance to the industry on how to submit occurrence reports, including bird strike reports.
In addition, ASSI has issued PacMan Procedure 8, which details the process for the receipt, storage,
investigation and analysis of occurrence reports by ASSI and the OTAAs.
3.3.6 Critical element 6 ─ Licensing, certification, authorization and/or
approval obligations
―The implementation of processes and procedures to ensure that personnel and organizations
performing an aviation activity meet the established requirements before they are allowed to
exercise the privileges of a licence, certificate, authorization and/or approval to conduct the
relevant aviation activity.‖
3.3.6.1 With respect to personnel licensing, pilot, flight engineer and aircraft maintenance engineer
licences are of the expiring type, with different validity periods, while air traffic controller licences are of the
continuing type. Renewals of licences require flight checks or recent proof of experience. All applications, in
hard copy format, are sent to the personnel licensing specialist at ASSI. All documentation is stored in a file for
each licence holder. Conversion and validation of foreign licences are applicable only for pilot, flight engineer
and aircraft maintenance engineer licences. In case of validation, ASSI systematically verifies the validity of
the licences with the issuing authority. Theoretical examinations are prepared and organized by ASSI
according to established procedure. ATS inspectors assess the competency of air traffic controllers, while flight
examiners carry out flight examinations. However, no designations are issued by ASSI or the BDCA. The
results of flight checks are automatically recognized by ASSI, or the OTAAs, as applicable. ASSI has not
approved any training organization.
3.3.6.2 Medical assessments are provided by the aeromedical examiners. However, no designation is
issued by ASSI or OTAAs, as applicable. Medical certificates are recognized directly.
3.3.6.3 For Bermuda, the BDCA issues validations for all flight crew and aircraft maintenance
engineer licences, and licences for air traffic controllers. In validating foreign licences, the BDCA does not
systematically contact the issuing State to ensure the validity and the authenticity of the original licence or its
- 43 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
full compliance with Annex 1 to the Chicago Convention. In case of Article 83 bis agreements, block
validations are issued based only on the list of licence holders presented by the concerned air operator.
Theoretical examinations on air law are organized by the BDCA. Regarding training organizations, the BDCA
has approved several training organizations for air traffic controllers based on authorizations issued by other
ICAO Contracting States.
3.3.6.4 With respect to aircraft operations, ASSI implements certification, approval and authorization
processes in accordance with established legislation, requirements and procedures. The certification process, as
outlined in OTAR Part 119 and described in PacMan Technical Procedure TP 2-3 — Air Operators
Certificate, includes a standard application form, review of operations manual, and inspections of the
operator’s facilities and organization by the ASSI operations inspector. Coordination is carried out with the
airworthiness inspectors. A flight inspection may be required depending on the complexity of the operations
and the experience of the crews and usually takes the form of a non-revenue proving flight, with a view to
verifying that the operating procedures are satisfactory. Upon successful completion of the certification
process, the applicant is issued an AOC and a set of operations specifications; the document remains valid until
it is suspended or revoked. However, ASSI has not yet issued a standard application form for an AOC
applicant.
3.3.6.5 Regarding the approval of aircraft leasing, a circular entitled ―Aircraft Lease‖ was issued for
ASSI staff and the OTAAs. However, in the case of the transfer of oversight responsibilities in accordance
with Article 83 bis of the Chicago Convention, the OTARs do not require a certified true copy of the transfer
agreement to be carried on board at all times. With respect to dangerous goods, ASSI has not issued any
authorization to carry dangerous goods to AOC holders which are under its oversight responsibility.
3.3.6.6 Regarding Bermuda, the BDCA has issued one AOC. It has also issued five authorizations for
carriage of dangerous goods, but only for foreign air operators. While the BDCA follows the established
requirements and procedures in issuing the AOC, there is insufficient coordination between the operations and
airworthiness inspectors in the certification and approval processes.
3.3.6.7 With respect to airworthiness, ASSI maintains an electronic database recording information
from the certificates of registration of all aircraft registered in the Overseas Territories and updates it with
information received from the OTAAs. The certificates of registration, certificates of airworthiness, special
flight permits, and export certificates of airworthiness issued by ASSI include all the required information. In
each Overseas Territory where ASSI is the designated regulator for airworthiness, ASSI keeps comprehensive
records for each registered aircraft.
3.3.6.8 Airworthiness approvals and certificates are issued by the ASSI airworthiness inspectors in
accordance with established legislation, requirements and procedures. However, as some procedures and
guidelines have not been established, certain aspects of the approval or certification process are not covered.
3.3.6.9 For Bermuda, the BDCA maintains an accurate and up-to-date aircraft register (in electronic
format as well as in hard copy) which shows the information recorded on the certificates of registration. The
certificates of registration, certificates of airworthiness, special flight permits, noise certificates, and export
certificates of airworthiness issued by BDCA contain the necessary information, and the BDCA also keeps
comprehensive records for each registered aircraft. However, in practice, various airworthiness requirements
are not met due to a lack of requirements and/ or procedures.
3.3.6.10 With respect to ANS, where ASSI is designated as regulator, all ATS and aeronautical
telecommunication service providers hold current ASSI approvals which are issued according to the
- 44 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
requirements of the applicable OTARs. PANS-OPS service providers are also approved by ASSI in accordance
with the requirements of OTARs Part 173 and Part 176. Navigation aids in the Overseas Territories are
regularly flight checked, with the process monitored by either ASSI, where they have regulatory
responsibilities, or by the respective departments of civil aviation.
3.3.6.11 With respect to aerodromes, all those which have to be certified have been effectively certified
in accordance with OTAR Part 139, with the exception of two (i.e. Anegada Airport in the BVI and Little
Cayman Airport in the Cayman Islands). The aerodrome certificate is valid for five years or until it is
suspended or revoked. ASSI or, as applicable, the concerned OTAA reviews the relevant documents (including
the aerodrome manual) and performs inspections of the aerodrome facilities and operating conditions before
issuing the aerodrome certificate. Copies of aerodrome manuals, certificates and files containing
correspondence between ASSI (or, as applicable, the concerned OTAA) and the aerodrome operators are kept
by the respective aerodrome inspectors.
3.3.7 Critical element 7 ─ Surveillance obligations
―The implementation of processes, such as inspections and audits, to proactively ensure that
aviation licence, certificate, authorization and/or approval holders continue to meet the
established requirements and function at the level of competency and safety required by the
State to undertake an aviation-related activity for which they have been licensed, certified,
authorized and/or approved to perform. This includes the surveillance of designated personnel
who perform safety oversight functions on behalf of the CAA.‖
3.3.7.1 With respect to personnel licensing, ASSI does not carry out inspections, as there are no
approved training organizations, flight examiners or designated medical examiners in the Overseas Territories.
For Bermuda, the BDCA does not have a surveillance programme for the approved training organizations of
air traffic controllers.
3.3.7.2 With respect to aircraft operations, ASSI implements a surveillance programme for the air
operators under its direct oversight responsibility, which is based on specific procedures (including PacMan
Technical Procedure TP 2-7 — Surveillance of Operators and PacMan Procedure 14 — Ramp Checking of
Foreign Aircraft). Surveillance is carried out by means of audits, ramp checks, and flight checks as well as
through the review of Safety Assessment of Foreign Aircraft (SAFA) reports and other inspection reports from
foreign authorities. However, the surveillance programme does not cover the designated individuals who
conduct tasks (such as flight proficiency checks) on behalf of the designated regulator. In addition, ASSI has
not implemented a surveillance programme regarding the transport of dangerous goods by air. The dangerous
goods inspector of ASSI does not carry out regular and random inspections to verify compliance with the
established requirements and the provisions of Annex 18 to the Chicago Convention.
3.3.7.3 For Bermuda, the BDCA has established a surveillance programme of the AOC holders and
foreign air operators. However, some inspections have not been completed. Regarding the transfer of oversight
responsibilities in accordance with Article 83 bis of the Chicago Convention, BDCA has established an
inspection programme of the aviation authorities of the State of the Operator based on specific agreements.
However, the inspections schedule is not followed. The BDCA conducts inspections regarding the transport of
dangerous goods by air.
3.3.7.4 With respect to airworthiness, ASSI has performed a few audits of local and foreign AMOs
and AOC holders. It also requires periodic mass and balance reports for all aircraft and the Airworthiness
Section checks these reports during the renewal of the certificates of airworthiness. However, ASSI has not
- 45 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
developed a comprehensive surveillance programme to cover all airworthiness activities and thereby ensure
that all aircraft, maintenance facilities and air operators comply with the airworthiness requirements in place.
3.3.7.5 Regarding Bermuda, the BDCA’s airworthiness inspectors conduct inspections on Bermuda-
registered aircraft only for the renewal of certificates of airworthiness. The foreign AMOs are audited as part of
the process for the issuance or the renewal of their certificates. No formal surveillance programme has been
established to verify that all air operators and AMO comply with the established requirements. Furthermore,
although the BDCA has delegated some of its airworthiness-related duties to a private agency and to
13 independent airworthiness designators, the BDCA does not conduct oversight of these delegated tasks.
Concerning Bermuda-registered aircraft which are operated commercially by foreign operators under
Article 83 bis of the Chicago Convention, the BDCA inspectors do not participate in the operators’ reliability
meetings in order to monitor the reliability programmes and be able to initiate special evaluations and/or
impose special operational restrictions in case the information obtained indicates degraded level of safety.
3.3.7.6 With respect to ANS, ASSI has developed a surveillance programme with a view to providing
continuous surveillance of all relevant organizations and individuals. ASSI carries out regular oversight of
ANS providers, except for those in the AIS, cartography, MET and SAR fields. Where the OTAAs have been
assigned regulatory responsibility for ANS, they have established their own surveillance mechanisms.
Regarding Bermuda, the BDCA normally contracts out the surveillance of ATS and CNS providers to private
organizations. However, no mechanism has been established for the continuous surveillance of AIS,
Cartography, MET and SAR service providers.
3.3.7.7 With respect to aerodromes, ASSI has developed and implements a surveillance programme
for the continuing oversight of all certified aerodromes. ASSI aerodrome inspectors inspect all the aerodromes
under their oversight responsibility at least once a year. In Bermuda, the BDCA has a surveillance programme
in place for the safety oversight of the Department of the Airport Operations, which is the operator of the L. F.
Wade International Airport. The BDCA also contracts private consultant companies to conduct comprehensive
aerodrome inspections every 18 to 24 months or as necessary. An inspection checklist is available and used by
the aerodrome inspectors of ASSI and the OTAAS for the conduct of inspections.
3.3.8 Critical element 8 ─ Resolution of safety concerns
―The implementation of processes and procedures to resolve identified deficiencies impacting
aviation safety, which may have been residing in the aviation system and have been detected
by the regulatory authority or other appropriate bodies.
Note.— This would include the ability to analyse safety deficiencies, forward
recommendations, support the resolution of identified deficiencies as well as take
enforcement action, when appropriate.”
3.3.8.1 With respect to personnel licensing, ASSI and the OTAAs are authorized by the AN(OT)O to
suspend, limit, vary or revoke any certificate, licence, approval, permission, exemption, authorization or other
document ―issued, granted or having effect‖ under the AN(OT)O. Penalties may be prescribed for the offences
described in the AN(OT)O, such as false declarations.
3.3.8.2 With respect to aircraft operations, enforcement actions are carried out in accordance with the
guidance outlined in the established procedure (i.e. PacMan Technical Procedure TP 1-4 — Enforcement).
Non-conformities identified during audits and inspections are tracked according to PacMan Procedure 10 —
Regulatory Non-conformity Reporting (RNR) Procedure. Inspectors of ASSI and the OTAAs can take action to
- 46 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
ensure enforcement of the established requirements. In case of non-compliance or violation, enforcement
actions can take the form of administrative actions (including the suspension or revocation of the AOC) or
sanctions, as applicable. The AN(OT)O, Schedule 10, ―The Air Navigation (Dangerous Goods) Regulations,‖
grants specific enforcement authority for failure to comply with any regulation on the carriage of dangerous
goods. However, the associated procedures have not been established as no dangerous goods inspections are
performed.
3.3.8.3 Regarding Bermuda, the BDCA has put in place a system to track deficiencies and remedial
actions based on specific procedures developed by ASSI and documented accordingly in the Flight Operations
Inspector Manual. For the transport of dangerous goods by air, no enforcement process has been implemented.
3.3.8.4 With respect to airworthiness, ASSI and the BDCA have implemented procedures to track and
follow up on deficiencies identified during inspections of air operators and AMOs. Inspectors can take
appropriate actions when necessary, including enforcement measures. However, ASSI and the BDCA have not
instituted a system to ensure the effective reporting of faults, malfunctions and defects to the organization
responsible for the type design of the aircraft registered, operated or receiving maintenance under an approval
issued by the State. Mandatory continuing airworthiness actions issued by the State of Design are reviewed
periodically by the airworthiness inspectors for the renewal of certificates of airworthiness.
3.3.8.5 With respect to ANS, ASSI has implemented a system to track deficiencies identified and
ensure their timely resolution. In the Overseas Territories where the OTAAs assume the regulatory
responsibilities, the OTAAs have set up their own mechanisms. The ANS inspectorate of the BDCA has
developed a documented process for the identification, follow-up and resolution of deficiencies identified in
the ATS and CNS fields only, as no oversight of the AIS, Cartography, MET and SAR service providers is
carried out.
3.3.8.6 With respect to aerodromes, ASSI has established a regulatory non-conformity reporting
system to deal with deficiencies found during aerodrome inspections. Warning letters may be issued to the
aerodrome operator, if necessary. Follow-up inspections are conducted and enforcement action can be taken,
including imposition of limitations on aerodrome operations or suspension of the aerodrome certificate.
Exchange of safety information takes place through regular monthly telephone meetings between the ASSI
COO and the Directors of the OTAAs as well as annual conferences. In Bermuda, regular safety meetings are
held between the BDCA and the aerodrome operator. In accordance with ASSI guidance, reports on bird
strikes occurring in the Overseas Territories are forwarded and stored in the UK database before they are sent
to the IBIS database.
3.3.8.7 With respect to accident and incident investigations, both ASSI and the BDCA have
implemented procedures to act on safety recommendations presented to them as a result of an investigation.
Regarding occurrence reporting, ASSI is involved both directly as a designated regulator and indirectly as a
coordinator. As the designated regulator, ASSI receives occurrence reports and coordinates follow-up actions
(e.g. database management, investigation, and trend analysis). When it acts as coordinator, the regulatory
responsibility lies with the concerned OTAA. ASSI operates a paper-based database system to record
occurrences and has not yet established an electronic accident and incident database. Regarding Bermuda,
mandatory occurrence reports (MORs) are reviewed and analyzed by the BDCA. One of the BDCA inspectors
is tasked with receiving, analyzing and storing data in an Excel database. All MORs received in Bermuda are
also forwarded to ASSI. No voluntary incident reporting system has been set up in the Overseas Territories to
facilitate the collection of safety information that may not otherwise be captured by established mandatory
incident reporting system.

3.4 The UK Crown Dependencies
3.4.1 Critical element 1 ─ Primary aviation legislation
―The provision of a comprehensive and effective aviation law consistent with the environment
and complexity of the State’s aviation activity, and compliant with the requirements contained
in the Convention on International Civil Aviation.‖
3.4.1.1 The primary legislation applicable in the Isle of Man (IoM) is made by either the Parliament of
the United Kingdom or the local IoM legislature (known as Tynwald), which share equal competence. Her
Majesty the Queen as Lord of Mann is the Head of State for the IoM. Her personal representative on the Island
is the Lieutenant Governor, who is appointed by the Crown for a five-year term. Tynwald has two chambers:
the House of Keys and the Legislative Council. The Legislative Council generally acts as a revising chamber
for Bills which are usually introduced in the House of Keys. The Royal Assent to Tynwald Bills is given by the
Queen or, now more commonly, by the Lieutenant Governor.
3.4.1.2 Acts of the UK Parliament do not extend to the IoM unless expressly so provided. Where they
are extended, they are usually modified for their application in the IoM. European legislation related to aviation
does not automatically extend to the IoM. An MOU regarding aviation safety regulation was signed between
the United Kingdom (International Aviation and Safety Division of the UK Department for Transport or DfT)
and the IoM (IoM Department of Transport or IoM DoT) on 12 March 2008. Under this MOU, the United
Kingdom has to the following responsibilities:
a) to consult the IoM in a timely manner prior to international negotiations and discussions
in relevant international forums, and to take account of its interests in those negotiations
and discussions;
b) to facilitate participation by the IoM in any relevant international forum or negotiations;
c) to provide timely advice to the IoM of any changes to relevant technical requirements
established under the Chicago Convention; and
d) to ensure that the IoM is advised in a timely manner:
i) of any proposals to amend, in its application to the United Kingdom, civil aviation
legislation which has been extended to the IoM’s territory, and
ii) upon request, of any amendments to the UK domestic legislation upon which the
IoM’s local legislation may be based;
iii) in accordance with any agreed timetables, provide timely advice to the IoM on any
proposed aviation legislation that they may have drafted;
iv) facilitate the provision of assistance and advice from the UKCAA to the IoM
under section 16(1) of the Civil Aviation Act 1982 (Parliament);
v) inform the IoM of any EU legislation dealing with the implementation of ICAO
SARPs; and
vi) act on behalf of the IoM to withdraw or amend an existing difference filed by the
United Kingdom or provide for a new difference in respect of a SARP, except
where, notwithstanding that there may be practical points of distinction to be
drawn between the circumstances of the United Kingdom and the special
circumstances of the IoM, a fundamental risk to aviation safety would arise from
the withdrawal, amendment or filing.
- 48 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
3.4.1.3 In the MOU, the IoM agrees not to place the United Kingdom in breach of its international
obligations and in particular will:
a) establish and maintain a civil aviation safety regulator separate from any aviation service
provider;
b) ensure that the civil aviation safety regulator is competent and is provided with
sufficient resources to allow it to carry out its functions effectively;
c) contract in, as may be required, any expert services which cannot be provided in house;
d) take steps to ensure or promote, as the case may be, the timely enactment of relevant
civil aviation legislation;
e) agree with the United Kingdom a regular schedule of independent reviews/audits of the
safety regulatory system and advise the United Kingdom of the outcome;
f) provide the United Kingdom’s National Safety Oversight Coordinator (NSOC) with all
the relevant information required under ICAO’s USOAP and cooperate with any audit
conducted by ICAO.
3.4.1.4 Sections 60 and 61 of United Kingdom’s Civil Aviation Act 1982 (Parliament) which provide
for the power to make and enforce Air Navigation Orders (ANOs) have been extended to the IoM by the Civil
Aviation (IoM) Order 2007, an Order in Council approved by the Queen. In exercise of that power, the Air
Navigation (IoM) Order 2007 (hereinafter referred to as the ANO (IoM) 2007) was promulgated.
3.4.1.5 The Airports and Civil Aviation Act 1987 (an Act of Tynwald) confers on the Department of
Transport of the IoM (referred to in this act as ―the Department‖) the power to make application orders
effectively by applying UK Acts and secondary legislation as well as EC aviation legislation (at present there is
no EC aviation legislation related to aviation safety that applies to the IoM directly) to the IoM as part of the
law of the Island. The necessary modifications are specified in the application orders to allow for effective
implementation (i.e. substitution of names or departments as appropriate). Once approved by the Tynwald, the
application orders have the force of law. Other provisions of the Civil Aviation Act 1982 (Parliament) are
applied to the IoM by the Civil Aviation Acts (Application) Order 2006, as modified/specified. In addition,
another application order, the Civil Aviation (Subordinate Legislation) (Application) Order 2006, provides for
the application of the following UK secondary legislation relating to aviation safety to the IoM:
a) Air Navigation Order 2005;
b) Civil Aviation (Investigation of Air Accidents and Incidents) Regulations 1996;
c) Aeroplane Noise Regulations, 1999;
d) Civil Aviation (Investigation of Air Accidents and Incidents) Regulations 1996;
e) Air Navigation (Dangerous Goods) Regulations 2002;
f) Air Navigation (General) Regulations 2006;
g) Civil Aviation (Safety of Third Country Aircraft) Regulations 2006; and
h) Rules of the Air Regulations 2007.
3.4.1.6 The ANO (IoM) 2007 represents the highest level of civil aviation regulation in the IoM. It has
nine parts and nine schedules, including provisions on registration and marking of aircraft, airworthiness and
equipment of aircraft, aircraft crew and licensing, operation of aircraft, fatigue and cosmic radiation,
documents and records, movement of aircraft, and others.
3.4.1.7 Pursuant to Section 60 of the Civil Aviation Act 1982 (Parliament) and Articles 19, 51, and 59
of the ANO (IoM) 2007, persons authorized by the Department have the right of access to ―any aerodrome,‖
―any place where an aircraft has landed,‖ any document or any factory for the purpose of inspecting the
- 49 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
aerodrome, an aircraft or documents, or for the purpose of detaining an aircraft. Both Articles 58 and 59 of the
ANO (IoM) 2007 specifically provide that the Department may detain an aircraft when it is considered likely to
fly in contravention of the specified safety requirements or be ―in a condition unfit for flight.‖
3.4.1.8 Under the Sections 61 and 99 of the Civil Aviation Act 1982 (Parliament), infringement of
ANO requirements constitutes a criminal offence, and the maximum penalty is imposed depending on the
nature and circumstances of their infringement. Enforcement of the air navigation regulations and associated
operating regulations is further boosted by the ANO 2005 of the United Kingdom, specifically Article 148 and
Schedule 14 which lay down enforcement action and penalties to be imposed for the contravention of the
ANO.
3.4.1.9 Article 34 of the Chicago Convention requires the maintenance of a journey log book for every
aircraft engaged in international air navigation. However, the applicable regulations in the IoM only require
that the journey log book be maintained for aeroplanes engaged in commercial air transport. In addition, the
IoM does not require the carriage on board an aircraft of the journey log book, the passenger manifest or the
cargo manifest as stipulated in Article 29 of the Chicago Convention.
3.4.1.10 The IoM consented to have the ratification of Article 83 bis of the Chicago Convention by the
United Kingdom apply to the IoM. In this connection, Article 5 of the ANO (IoM) 2007 provides that ―save in
the case of a transfer of functions under Article 83 bis of the Chicago Convention,‖ IoM-registered aircraft may
not fly for the purpose of commercial air transport. The IoM however does not have any aircraft being operated
under an agreement made pursuant to Article 83 bis. In so far as certificates and licences are concerned, the
ANO (IoM) 2007 has provisions for the recognition of those issued by the State of Registry or the State of
Operator. Under the ANO (IoM) 2007, the definition for State of the Operator is the same as the ICAO
definition, but with the added condition that the State of Registry has, ―by agreement‖ with the State of the
Operator agreed ―to transfer to it its functions and duties as State of registry in respect of that aircraft‖ in
relation to airworthiness, aircraft radio equipment, flight crew licensing or radio licensing.
3.4.1.11 With respect to airworthiness, the ANO (IoM) 2007 repeats the relevant provisions of the
ANO 2005 of the United Kingdom in relation to the aircraft register (airworthiness, licensing and aircraft
operations). Articles 7, 9, 10, 13, and 22 of the ANO (IoM) 2007 specify that the Department can issue, renew
or validate certificates of airworthiness, national permits to fly or equivalent documents, certificates of
validation of aircraft maintenance engineers’ licences, as well as certificates of validation and re-validation of
flight crew licences. In addition, Article 53 authorizes the Department to revoke, suspend and vary certificates,
licences and other documents that it has issued, granted or given effect to under the ANO (IoM) 2007.
3.4.1.12 With respect to ANS, the relevant provisions (i.e. Articles 100 to 126) of the ANO 2005 of the
United Kingdom are applicable to IoM, without modifications to the organization and approval of the provision
of ATS and Flight Information Services (FIS) (including details on the licensing of air traffic controllers, FIS
Officers, and ATS equipment). In addition, Article 55 of the ANO (IoM) 2007 stipulates compliance by
aircraft within the IoM with the requirements of the ―Rules of Air‖ which refers to the regulations made ―under
article 95 of Air Navigation Order 2005 and applied to the Isle of Man under section 11 of the Airports and
Civil Aviation Act 1987 (an Act of Tynwald).‖
3.4.1.13 With respect to aerodromes, Sections 6 and 8 of the Airports and Civil Aviation Act 1987
empowers the Department to obtain rights over land in order ―to secure the safe and efficient use for civil
aviation purposes of land‖ and to exercise control over land in the interests of civil aviation, including
requirements for ―the total or partial demolition of any building or structure‖ and/or ―for restricting the height
of trees upon any land within the area, or for requiring any tree upon any such land to be cut down or reduced
- 50 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
in height,‖ ―for extinguishing any private right of way over land within the area,‖ and ―for restricting the
installation of cables, mains, wires or other apparatus upon, across, under or over any land within the area‖ in
order to ensure safe operation of aircraft in the vicinity of an aerodrome. Furthermore, according to
Schedule 1 (3) and Schedule 2 (c) of the Airports and Civil Aviation Act 1987, the IoM Civil Aviation
Administration (IoM CAA) may carry out obstacle control in the interest of civil aviation safety as authorized
under the Transfer of Functions (Civil Aviation) Order 2008, while the Town and Country Planning Act 1999
(of Tynwald) lays down provisions related to aerodrome development plan.
3.4.1.14 The regulatory framework for the licensing and certification of aerodromes is laid down by the
ANO (IoM) 2007 and by Articles 126 and 128 of the ANO 2005 of the United Kingdom which have effect
within the IoM. Aerodrome operating minima are addressed in Article 24 (public transport aircraft) and
Article 25 (non-public transport aircraft) of the ANO (IoM) 2007. Article 53 of the ANO (IoM) 2007
authorizes the Department to revoke, suspend or vary aerodrome certificates/licences, while Article 59 grants
the Department and any authorized person the right of access to any aerodrome for the purpose of inspection.
3.4.2 Critical element 2 ─ Specific operating regulations
―The provision of adequate regulations to address, at a minimum, national requirements
emanating from the primary aviation legislation and providing for standardized operational
procedures, equipment and infrastructures (including safety management and training
systems), in conformance with the Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) contained
in the Annexes to the Convention on International Civil Aviation.
Note.— The term ‘regulations’ is used in a generic sense to include instructions, rules, edicts,
directives, sets of laws, requirements, policies, orders, etc.”
3.4.2.1 The Director of Civil Aviation (DCA), as the Head of the IoM CAA (website:
http://www.gov.im/dti/isleofmancivilaviationadministrationcaa.xml), is responsible for ensuring compliance
with all international requirements. Specifically, he is responsible for monitoring and reviewing developments
in international civil aviation law, regulations and standards and for maintaining the Island’s civil aviation
regulatory framework in compliance with these standards. The responsibility of the DCA thus includes the
development and proposal of appropriate changes to the Island’s civil aviation legislation.
3.4.2.2 Under the ANO (IoM) 2007, the IoM’s Department of Trade and Industry (IoM DTI) has
discretionary powers to grant certificates, licences and approvals if the applicant is deemed competent. The
IoM CAA has adopted a limited number of the UKCAA Civil Aviation Publications (CAPs) as a means of
compliance for receiving approvals issued by the IoM CAA. Registry Publications (RPs) are supporting
documents published by the IoM Aircraft Registry (IoMAR), which is a section of the IoM CAA, to provide
information on the applicable administrative processes and the standards used to assess competence as part of
the process to grant a permission, approval, variation, exemption and certificate. While the CAPs and RPs do
not constitute legislation, non-compliance with the CAPs or RPs may however result in the DCA’s revocation
of a licence, certificate or approval, refusal to grant a licence, certificate or approval, or granting of a licence,
certificate or approval with conditions.
3.4.2.3 Under Article 66 of the ANO (IoM) 2007, the IoMAR may issue a permission, approval,
variation or exemption (PAVE) from certain requirements of the ANO. A Minimum Equipment List
Permission is a normal procedure which enables efficient operation of an aircraft without reduced level of
safety. An Approval can be used to modify part of an aircraft. A Variation can provide an alternative but
equivalent level of safety. An Exemption granted in relation to Rule 5 (―Low flying prohibitions‖) of the Rules
- 51 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
of the Air Regulations 2007, allows an aircraft to fly closer to objects or people in controlled conditions for
aerial photography. Additionally, the IoMAR Policy and Procedures Manual requires a full review of
proposals and conditions whenever a request is received for a PAVE, including the use of external expert
advice and legal advice, if necessary, to ensure that no reduction in safety level occurs and that any aircraft
limitations, validity time scales and environmental restrictions are duly imposed.
3.4.2.4 The IoMAR website (at http://www.gov.im/dti/Aircraft) makes available the applicable
aviation legislation (including a list of the UKCAA CAPs adopted by the IoM CAA) and the relevant RPs.
Also found on the website are the IoM CAA publications, Safety Matters, which provide safety information for
owners, operators, flight crew and maintenance organizations of IoM-registered aircraft. Certificate holders are
asked to ensure that these online documents are disseminated to their contracted maintenance organizations as
well as to all their staff members who could have an interest in the information or who may need to take
appropriate action in response to the information.
3.4.2.5 With respect to airworthiness, the related requirements in the IoM are laid down primarily in
the ANO (IoM) 2007, the Civil Aviation (Subordinate Legislation) (Application) Order 2006, and the RPs. In
line with the policy of the IoMAR to only register aircraft that have already been type certificated by EASA,
the IoMAR accepts aircraft based on the Type Certification Standard of the State of Design for aircraft from
the United States, Canada, Brazil and the States represented by EASA. With respect to the continuing
airworthiness of aircraft registered in the IoM, the IoMAR requires owners, their contracted organizations, and
staff to abide by the instructions for continued airworthiness issued by the aircraft, engine, propeller (if
appropriate) and equipment designers. The certification of maintenance must be carried out by an approved
maintenance organization or a licensed aircraft maintenance engineer whose qualification have been validated
by the IoMAR for release to service under the ANO (IoM) 2007.
3.4.2.6 Where the regulations and the instructions for continued airworthiness are insufficient, the
IoMAR has adopted UKCAA CAPs (available on the UKCAA website http://www.caa.co.uk), subject to any
necessary modifications. In particular, references to any provision of the ANO 2005 of the United Kingdom are
to be taken as references to the corresponding provision of the ANO (IoM) 2007. Presently, the UKCAA CAPs
adopted in the IoM include CAP 455 (Airworthiness Notices) and CAP 562 (Civil Aviation Airworthiness
Information and Procedures (CAAIP)). However, the operations-derived equipment requirements of Annex 6,
Parts II and III to the Chicago Convention are not fully addressed by the applicable regulations in the IoM. In
addition, the IoM has not established requirements for human factors principles to be observed in the design
and application of maintenance programmes for aircraft and helicopters engaged in international operations in
accordance with Annex 6, Parts II and III.
3.4.2.7 With respect to ANS, the IoM CAA addresses the related provisions of the Annexes to the
Chicago Convention through the ATS Safety Regulation Policy Paper, the Rules of the Air Regulations 2007
and numerous ANS-related CAPs. The list of ANS-related CAPs, as applicable to the IoM, is published in the
Aerodrome Regulatory Manual. However, the IoM has not established formal requirements with respect to the
specific units of measurement to be used in air and ground operations in accordance with Annex 5 to the
Chicago Convention.
3.4.2.8 With respect to aerodrome, the IoM CAA has adopted several regulatory requirements from
the UKCAA and has incorporated them into its Aerodrome Regulatory Manual. According to Article 59 of the
ANO (IoM) 2007, the aerodrome regulatory authority is authorized to carry out safety oversight responsibilities
while inspectors are appropriately delegated the corresponding authority. Up-to date copies of aerodrome-
related regulations are available to the public on the IoM CAA’s website. The Strategic Plan approved in 2007
through the Town and Country Planning (Isle of Man Strategic Plan) Order 2007 establishes an objective to
- 52 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
provide sufficient space for the efficient operation of Ronaldsway International Airport and to safeguard the
approach and departure routes and the Public Safety Zone, in accordance with international operating standards
and without compromising environmental objectives.
3.4.3 Critical element 3 ─ State civil aviation system and safety oversight functions
―The establishment of a civil aviation authority (CAA) and/or other relevant authorities or
government agencies, headed by a Chief Executive Officer, supported by the appropriate and
adequate technical and non-technical staff and provided with adequate financial resources. The
State authority must have stated safety regulatory functions, objectives and safety policies.
Note.— The term ‘State civil aviation system’ is used in a generic sense to include all
aviation-related authorities with aviation safety oversight responsibility which may be
established by the State as separate entities, such as: CAA, airport authorities, air traffic
service authorities, accident investigation authority, meteorological authority, etc.”
3.4.3.1 The Government of the IoM is made up of a Council of Ministers (headed by a Chief Minister)
and nine Departments (each headed by a Minister). As a legal entity, each Department has its powers and
duties exercised on its behalf by its Minister or by officers delegated by the Ministers. The Government
Departments Act 1987 provides for nine Departments, including the Department of Trade and Industry and the
Department of Transport.
3.4.3.2 Under the ANO (IoM) 2007, the aircraft registration and regulatory functions were initially
entrusted to the Department of Transport (DOT), but pursuant to the latest amendment of the
ANO (IoM) 2007, these functions were transferred to the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) effective
1 July 2008. However, according to the Airports and Civil Aviation Act 1987, the operation of the IoM Airport
and the provision of ANS inside IoM airspace remain the responsibility of the DOT.
3.4.3.3 The IoM Civil Aviation Administration (IoM CAA) is a division of the DTI that is responsible
for regulating aviation in the IoM. Under Section 3(2) of the Government Departments Act 1987, the Minister
of Trade and Industry assigned the aviation-related functions of the DTI to the Director of Civil Aviation
(DCA) who heads the IoM CAA. The CAA’s role is to administer the IoM Aircraft Registry (IoMAR) and
regulate the IoM Airport. In addition to its responsibility of ensuring compliance of the Island's aviation
legislation with ICAO SARPs and other relevant European aviation standards, the IoM CAA is also charged
with regulation of aerodrome and air traffic services in the IoM.
3.4.3.4 Presently, the IoM CAA is funded under the Civil Aviation (Charges) Scheme 2007 but the
eventual the objective is to become self-financing. Certain functions of the IoM CAA are funded by the DTI.
The incomes derived from the IoM CAA’s charges and expenditures are reviewed annually by the DTI Finance
Director. Adjustments to the Scheme of Charges of the IoM CAA are then made as required upon the advice of
the Finance Director and the DCA.
3.4.3.5 The primary responsibility of the DCA is to establish a civil aircraft register in the IoM and act
as the Civil Aviation Regulator for the Island. Accordingly, the DCA ensures that IoM-registered aircraft are
properly designed, manufactured, operated and maintained. In specific terms, it means ensuring that operators
are competent; that the flight crew, air traffic controllers, aircraft maintenance engineers and relevant
organizations are licensed and competent; that licensed aerodromes are safe to use; and that air traffic services
and general aviation activities meet required safety standards. While the DCA may contract out
professional/technical oversight for these functions, he retains full regulatory responsibility and accountability.

Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
3.4.3.6 As a section under the IoM CAA, the IoMAR, established on 1 May 2007, has a Chief
Surveyor and, depending upon the fleet size, may hire a limited number of airworthiness surveyors. Most of the
airworthiness surveys are conducted by staff supplied by a long-term partner, namely, Baines Simmons
Limited. Surveyors are selected for their qualifications, experience and suitability to support the IoMAR in
fulfilling its responsibility as a State of Registry. The Chief Surveyor is also the Deputy Director of Civil
Aviation (DDCA) and assists the DCA in his function as the Civil Aviation Regulator in the IoM.
3.4.3.7 The primary responsibility of the Chief Surveyor is to ensure that IoM-registered aircraft
conform to international airworthiness, certification and maintenance standards, including the installation of
operational and emergency equipment. Specifically, it requires surveys of aircraft and supporting
documentation in order to verify their compliance with acceptable standards and with the appropriate
certification basis for the issue of certificates of airworthiness. The Chief Surveyor is also responsible for the
continuing airworthiness of the aircraft whilst on the register, including the approval of maintenance
programmes, the acceptance of Minimum Equipment Lists (MELs), the renewal of certificates of
airworthiness, the approval of modifications and repairs, the investigation of occurrence reports, and the
validation of aircraft maintenance engineer’s licences.
3.4.3.8 Once qualified, airworthiness surveyors are issued Certificates of Authorisation to enable them
to carry out work under the ANO (IoM) 2007, Aeroplane Noise Regulations, and the Civil Aviation Act 1982
(Parliament). A copy of the certificate is kept in the individual’s file. Additionally, airworthiness surveyors are
issued stamps engraved with the Authorisation Numbers from their Certificates of Authorization; the stamps
are used on official documents. Baines Simmons Limited is also authorized by the Minister of Trade and
Industry, under Section 3 of the Government Departments Act 1987, to exercise the functions of the DTI in
relation to Article 11 (approval of maintenance schedule) of the ANO (IoM) 2007. Other approvals are also
issued by the IoM CAA based on recommendations by Baines Simmons-contracted surveyors.
3.4.3.9 Within the IoM CAA, the Operations Officer is the primary source for information and advice
to the general public and customers with respect to the registration of aircraft and personnel licensing matters.
The Operations Officer is responsible for ensuring that all applications comply with the relevant aviation
legislation for aircraft registration, for managing the IoMAR, and for the acceptance, authorizations and
issuance of validations for flight crew licence. In addition, the Operations Officer is in charge of the monitoring
of the IoM CAA’s budget, the management of its income, and expenditure of all monies in accordance with
IoM Government Financial Regulations.
3.4.3.10 The DTI recently concluded a Framework Agreement with UK CAA International (CAAI) (a
wholly owned subsidiary of the UKCAA) for the conduct of safety oversight tasks related to ATS, CNS, MET,
AIS, PANS-OPS and Charts by competent UKCAA technical staff on behalf of the IoM CAA.
3.4.3.11 At the Ronaldsway Airport, ANS (such as ATS, CNS and MET services) are provided by the
IoM’s DOT, while an unmanned self-briefing facility is provided to pilots in the airport terminal building.
PANS-OPS and aeronautical charts services are provided by the Directorate of Airspace Policy (DAP) of
UKCAA. The provision of SAR services has been formalized in an agreement between the governments of the
IoM and the United Kingdom, and includes the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA), Joint Emergency
Service Control Room (JESCR), ARCC Kinloss, and various local SAR supporting agencies. The IoM
Government is also represented on the UK SAR Operators’ Group Maritime and Aviation Consultative
Committee.
3.4.3.12 The ATS-DOT handles an average of 100 movements daily (with peaks of 200 movements
daily during the two busiest week of the year when the Tourist Trophy event takes place) within a control
- 54 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
traffic zone that extends up to 6 500 feet in an approximate radius of 12 miles in Class D airspace. Aerodrome
and approach surveillance services are provided on a daily 16-hour basis.
3.4.3.13 With respect to aerodromes, the airport regulation section of the IoM CAA carries out all
regulatory activities, including certification and surveillance of the certified aerodrome of the IoM. Under the
Framework Agreement between the DTI and the CAAI, competent UKCAA aerodrome standards staff perform
the certification and inspection tasks allocated to them by the IoM CAA. The staffing level provided to the IoM
CAA through the Framework Agreement and its Appendix (Framework 4492, Revision 1, Appendix 4) is
sufficient to ensure that all oversight tasks related to aerodromes are performed in an effective and timely
manner. For the DCA, his duties and responsibilities as they relate to aerodromes as well as his delegated tasks
under the Framework Agreement are well defined. However, the aviation agencies, aerodrome regulatory
authority and airport operators have not made coordinated arrangements in order to optimize civil aviation
security measures within the IoM.
3.4.4 Critical element 4 ─ Technical personnel qualification and training
―The establishment of minimum requirements for knowledge and experience of the technical
personnel performing safety oversight functions and the provision of appropriate training to
maintain and enhance their competence at the desired level. The training should include initial
and recurrent (periodic) training.‖
3.4.4.1 The IoMAR has developed a training policy which is fully supported by the DTI CEO, DTI
Minister, and the IoM Government. When a deficiency in knowledge is identified from industry developments
or legislation changes, suitable training for the most appropriate staff member is planned and provided. Each
staff member has a personal file which records the courses attended as well as planned future development
courses. These development opportunities are discussed at the regular Government Personal Development
Review meetings between the line manager and staff member, but may be raised anytime a potential
improvement opportunity is identified.
3.4.4.2 When recruiting an airworthiness surveyor, the first preference is that the person should
already have appropriate regulatory experience with a National Aviation Authority (NAA). As all IoMAR
procedures are based on the UKCAA procedures, additional training is required for a candidate from a
different NAA. When an experienced surveyor is not identified, then an experienced engineer who meets the
maximum qualification, experience and competency requirements is selected and given formal surveyor’s
training followed by on-the-job training. A final review and acceptance of the trainee will be conducted by the
Chief Surveyor or a nominated person.
3.4.4.3 Continuation training sessions for surveyors are held twice a year at Baines Simmons offices
to ensure standardization and to review changes. The Chief Surveyor represents the IoMAR at these training
sessions. Baines Simmons retains training records of the surveyors whom they contract to work for the IoMAR,
while the IoMAR retains the training records of the Chief Surveyor and the Operations Officer.
3.4.4.4 In the areas of ANS and aerodromes, the Framework Agreement between the DTI and the
CAAI states that any inspector contracted to perform tasks related to aerodrome certification and inspection or
the safety oversight of ANS providers is expected to meet the same qualification and training requirements as
those established by the UKCAA for its own technical staff.
- 55 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
3.4.5 Critical element 5 ─ Technical guidance, tools and the provision of
safety critical information
―The provision of technical guidance (including processes and procedures), tools (including
facilities and equipment) and safety critical information, as applicable, to the technical
personnel to enable them to perform their safety oversight functions in accordance with
established requirements and in a standardized manner. In addition, this includes the
provision of technical guidance by the oversight authority to the aviation industry on the
implementation of applicable regulations and instructions.‖
3.4.5.1 The regulatory and technical staff of the IoM CAA are provided with adequate facilities, tools
and equipment to enable them to discharge their responsibilities in an effective manner. Through the Internet,
they have access to all relevant ICAO documents, along with other regulatory and technical information,
including the UKCAA CAPs.
3.4.5.2 Policies applicable to aviation safety oversight in the IoM are generally based on best industry
practice and agreed upon following discussions with industry experts and the technical experts in the IoM
CAA, with input also coming from contracted technical advisors. The resulting policies and procedures are
published in RPs.
3.4.5.3 With respect to airworthiness, the IoMAR has developed a set of technical procedures
(published as RP 23) to provide a mechanism for airworthiness surveyors to make an objective assessment of
compliance while maintaining the safety objectives of the IoM CAA. The Technical Procedures address the
following subjects:
• Checklist for registering aircraft,
• Issue of a certificate of airworthiness,
• Aircraft flight manual acceptance,
• MEL permission,
• Aircraft weight schedule,
• Aircraft radio installation acceptance,
• Airworthiness assessment for the grant of airspace approvals,
• Noise certificates,
• Renewal of a certificate of airworthiness,
• Certificate of airworthiness for export,
• Modification and repair approvals,
• Approval of maintenance programmes,
• Maintenance arrangements,
• Airworthiness Directives,
• Authorizations and validations,
• Mandatory occurrence reporting (MOR),
• Mandatory markings and placards,
• Acceptance of type certificates,
• Permit to fly, and
• Generic aircraft survey risk assessment.
3.4.5.3.1 All airworthiness surveyors are required to conduct their tasks in accordance with the Policy
and Procedures Manual (PPM) and the Technical Procedures Manual (TPM).
- 56 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
3.4.5.4 In the ANS area, the IoM State Safety Programme describes the acceptable levels of safety in
aviation operation to be achieved by the IoM, in accordance with ICAO Doc 9859 — Safety Management
Manual.
3.4.5.5 With respect to aerodromes, guidance material on the various technical areas is available
through the ANO (IoM) 2007 (e.g. Articles 24, 25 and 55); the ANO 2005 of the United Kingdom (i.e.
Article 95), and specific publications (e.g. CAP 168, ―Licensing of Aerodromes‖). In addition, a
comprehensive set of aerodrome-related procedures developed by the UK CAA has been implemented by the
IoM CAA through the Framework Agreement and are readily available to the inspectors and the regulatory
staff. However, there is no quality system in place to ensure that the accuracy, integrity and protection
requirements for aeronautical data reported by the aerodrome operator are met throughout the data transfer
process.
3.4.6 Critical element 6 ─ Licensing, certification, authorization and/or
approval obligations
―The implementation of processes and procedures to ensure that personnel and organizations
performing an aviation activity meet the established requirements before they are allowed to
exercise the privileges of a licence, certificate, authorization and/or approval to conduct the
relevant aviation activity.‖
3.4.6.1 With respect to airworthiness, the procedures established by the IoM CAA are fully
implemented and, with the exception of the provisions that have not been addressed in the regulations
applicable in the IoM, they fully conform to the ICAO SARPs and guidance material. It is a normal practice to
receive an Export Certificate of Airworthiness from either the current registry or the manufacturer of a new
aircraft confirming that the aircraft meets all the requirements and standards of the State of Manufacture or
existing registry. For a used aircraft imported from an EU Member State, a valid EASA Airworthiness Review
Certificate or certificate of airworthiness may be acceptable. Before an aircraft can be accepted for registration,
an airworthiness survey is conducted by an authorized surveyor to ensure that the aircraft and the relevant
documents submitted meet the established requirements. The aircraft owner/operator must request the
acceptance/validation of the organization and/or individual to certify for work on their aircraft by declaring
their maintenance intentions on the Aircraft Maintenance Information Form.
3.4.6.2 The IoMAR also issues the following approvals in support of the aircraft on its registry:
maintenance programmes; noise certificates; RVSM, RNAV and CAT II/III Airspace Approvals; and MELs.
All modifications and repairs to aircraft not classified as minor require design approval from the State whose
design code was used as the basis for the acceptance of the aircraft. The IoMAR also issues permits to fly with
suitable limitations applied, in the event that an aircraft has temporarily lost the validity of its certificate of
airworthiness and has to be flown to a location where maintenance work can be carried out. An Export
Certificate of Airworthiness may be issued upon request by the owner prior to de-registration.
3.4.6.3 With respect to ANS, the IoM CAA has not formally accepted the ATS safety management
system (SMS) implemented by the DOT ATS provider, as documented in the ATS Safety Case (dated
July 2006). For the licensing of air traffic controllers, the IoM implements CAP 744 (United Kingdom Manual
of Personnel Licensing — Air Traffic Controllers) which requires the air traffic controllers to hold a UK air
traffic controller’s licence. Under the Air Traffic Control (ATC) Licensing Scheme, ATC rating examinations
are conducted by an UKCAA inspector of ATS and a local ATC examiner, while the annual competence
assessments for the renewal of unit licence endorsements are carried out by local competence examiners, who
are appointed by the UKCAA, in accordance with the IoM Airport Air Traffic Control Unit Training Plan. The
- 57 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
air traffic engineers who are responsible for the operation of the engineering facilities used in the provision of
ATS are required to hold and maintain CAA SRG Personal Technical Certificates in accordance with CAP 670
(ATS Safety Programme). MET tools and systems are calibrated and certified by the UK MET Office. As for
flight inspection, the DOT has contracted Cobham plc, a private company, to perform the required tasks.
3.4.6.4 An aerodrome certificate (licence) in conformance with the national requirements and the
relevant ICAO SARPs was issued by the DOT to the Ronaldsway International Airport, the only aerodrome
open for public use, when the aerodrome regulatory functions were still under its responsibility.
3.4.6.5 With respect to aerodromes, the certification of Ronaldsway International Airport was carried
out in accordance with the national requirements (CAP 168), the IoM CAA procedures, and the UKCAA
procedures (i.e. ASD-008, ASD-009, ASD-010). All safety aspects are covered in the certification process,
including review of physical facilities, obstacle limitation assessments, aerodrome manuals and SMS. The IoM
CAA keeps up-to-date copies of the certificate and the approved aerodrome manual, and files them with all
correspondence related to the application. The aerodrome certificate remains in force until it is varied,
suspended or revoked. However, the IoM CAA has not integrated the international security measures into the
design and construction of the aerodrome and does not ensure that the aerodrome operator complies with
regulatory requirements about providing an illuminated fence or suitable barriers to aerodrome and off-
aerodrome ground installations and facilities.
3.4.7 Critical element 7 ─ Surveillance obligations
―The implementation of processes, such as inspections and audits, to proactively ensure that
aviation licence, certificate, authorization and/or approval holders continue to meet the
established requirements and function at the level of competency and safety required by the
State to undertake an aviation-related activity for which they have been licensed, certified,
authorized and/or approved to perform. This includes the surveillance of designated personnel
who perform safety oversight functions on behalf of the CAA.‖
3.4.7.1 With respect to airworthiness, certificates of airworthiness are issued for a validity period of
only 12 months, after which a full survey is conducted by either the Chief Surveyor or a Baines Simmons-
contracted airworthiness surveyor. Because of the high level of visibility of IoM-registered aircraft, there is no
programme for the conduct of ramp inspections for domestic aircraft. In accordance with Article 8 of the
ANO (IoM) 2007, no aircraft registered in the IoM may fly unless it is airworthy and the certificate of
airworthiness remains valid.
3.4.7.2 The UK DfT is responsible for the oversight of the Safety Assessment of Foreign Aircraft
(SAFA) Programme for the United Kingdom and as such, it may request the IoM CAA to conduct ramp
inspections of foreign-registered aircraft. Procedures for the conduct of SAFA inspections are available and the
IoM has enforcement provisions for the resolution of safety concerns identified during an aircraft inspection.
However, to date, the UK DfT has not requested the IoM CAA to conduct any inspections under the SAFA
Programme; the IoM CAA however does conduct ramp inspections of foreign aircraft as part of its own
surveillance activities.
3.4.7.3 Oversight of the work conducted by the surveyors contracted under Baines Simmons is carried
out by the Chief Surveyor or his nominated deputy who goes on an aircraft survey and evaluates the surveyor’s
performance. Baines Simmons also conducts a quality review of all work packages before they are sent to the
IoMAR to ensure that the work has been completed to a high standard and spot checks are also carried out by
the Chief Surveyor. Any issues identified are promptly addressed.
- 58 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
3.4.7.4 In the ANS area, the last audit of the ANS Providers (ANSPs) in the IoM was conducted in
October 2005 by inspectors from the UKCAA Manchester Regional Office to provide a CAP 670 ATC and
Engineering Compliance Audit and ATC competency checks. Since then, no other surveillance activities have
been conducted on the ANSPs on the IoM. In addition, the IoM CAA has not carried out oversight of the ATS
SMS implemented by the DOT ATS provider (including establishing the acceptable level of safety to be
achieved, and conducting post-implementation monitoring to verify that the defined level of safety continues to
be met). At the Ronaldsway International Airport, a Local Runway Safety Team consisting of ATS-CNS
providers, the aerodrome operator, and airline representatives has been formed in order to mitigate the risk of
runway incursions. A Safety Management Administrator is employed by the DOT to manage the IoM Airport’s
SMS to ensure that effective reporting systems and safety monitoring systems are in place at the aerodrome.
3.4.7.5 With respect to aerodromes, the IoM CAA’s regulatory staff and the CAAI-contracted
aerodrome inspectors follow the guidance material, tools, procedures and checklists provided by the IoM CAA
and the UKCAA to plan, prioritize and conduct continuing surveillance of the aerodrome. Under the
surveillance process, the frequency, scope and depth of the inspections can be adjusted according to the
outcomes of previous inspections. Overall, the aerodrome surveillance process implemented (including the
number and type of inspections conducted) has enabled the IoM CAA to ensure compliance with Annex 14,
Volume I to the Chicago Convention, and the related guidance material.
3.4.8 Critical element 8 ─ Resolution of safety concerns
―The implementation of processes and procedures to resolve identified deficiencies impacting
aviation safety, which may have been residing in the aviation system and have been detected
by the regulatory authority or other appropriate bodies.
Note.— This would include the ability to analyse safety deficiencies, forward
recommendations, support the resolution of identified deficiencies as well as take
enforcement action, when appropriate.”
3.4.8.1 With respect to airworthiness, if during an airworthiness survey, an aircraft fails to meet the
standards required to hold a certificate of airworthiness, the certificate is retained by the airworthiness surveyor
and the operator informed that the certificate can only be issued when all the defects have been corrected to the
satisfaction of the IoMAR. If there are only minor defects, the airworthiness surveyor may leave the certificate
of airworthiness with the aircraft and ask for proof of defect correction before the next flight. Written
acceptance of the corrections has to be provided by the IoMAR to the operator before the next flight. Where it
appears to an authorized person that an aircraft is unfit for flight or a source of danger, the authorized person
has the power to detain the aircraft under Article 58 of the ANO (IoM) 2007.
3.4.8.2 The ANO (IoM) 2007 requires operators to report occurrences to the IoMAR. The IoMAR in
turn will collect, evaluate, process and store occurrences reported, and use the information to improve air
safety. When the content relates to the airworthiness of aircraft, the airworthiness surveyor will forward the
information to the aircraft type certificate holder.
3.4.8.3 When an aircraft type is first accepted on the IoM aircraft register, the Civil Aviation
Authority of the State of Design is notified and asked to provide future copies of mandatory continued
airworthiness instructions (e.g. Airworthiness Directives). The IoMAR will follow the aircraft type certificate
holder’s airworthiness limitations and the State of Design’s mandatory airworthiness instructions. In
exceptional circumstances, the IoMAR may mandate actions on IoM-registered aircraft to address an unsafe
condition which has become apparent to the IoMAR. The airworthiness surveyor will conduct random
- 59 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
sampling checks to verify compliance with airworthiness limitations and mandatory airworthiness instructions
(usually identified as Airworthiness Directives) during the issuance and renewal process of the certificates of
airworthiness.
3.4.8.4 With respect to ANS, as the Framework Agreement was only concluded on 13 February 2009,
the audit activities related to ANS have not yet commenced and there is no established mechanism (including
timeframes) for the elimination of deficiencies to be identified in the areas of ATS, PANS-OPS, AIS, Charts,
CNS and MET. In the meantime, the DTI has established a system to track deficiencies and safety concerns
from audit reports for their resolution. CAP 382 (Mandatory Occurrence Reporting System) is implemented by
the DOT ATS provider in the investigation of reported ATC incidents.
3.4.8.5 With respect to aerodrome, the IoM CAA tracks the deficiencies found during the inspections,
and the continuing validity of the aerodrome certificate depends on the satisfactory outcome of the inspections.
Bird strike reports are collected and forwarded to ICAO (through the system and procedures established by the
UKCAA) and the exchange of safety information across the industry is ensured through safety reports, safety
bulletins, training courses and seminars, and other means.
4. VISITS TO THE INDUSTRY/SERVICE PROVIDERS
4.1 Accompanied by staff members of the State’s civil aviation system, the audit teams visit
aviation service providers, operations and maintenance departments of operators and maintenance
organizations, aeronautical product/equipment manufacturers, aviation training institutes, etc. The objective of
the visits is to validate the capability of the State to supervise the activities of these service providers, airlines
and organizations.
4.2 In the case of UK Main, the audit team visited the following organizations:
a) London Helicopter Centres (approved training organization) (PEL);
b) Aestraeus (OPS);

b) Ronaldsway International Airport, Isle of Man: approach control unit (ANS);
c) Ronaldsway International Airport, Isle of Man: MET office (ANS);
d) Ronaldsway International Airport, Isle of Man: AIS pilot self-briefing facility (ANS);
and
e) Ronaldsway International Airport, Isle of Man (AGA).
5. AUDIT FINDINGS AND DIFFERENCES DATABASE (AFDD)
5.1 The general objective of the AFDD is to assist States in identifying the elements that need
attention in the implementation of the proposed corrective action plan. The information is also intended to
assist States in establishing a priority of actions to be taken to resolve safety concerns identified by the audits.
Appendix 2 to this report contains graphic representations of the lack of effective implementation of the critical
elements of the safety oversight system (ICAO Doc 9734, Part A refers) in the United Kingdom as a whole and
the three audited entities individually, reflecting as well the results of the latest audit carried out on EASA at
the time of the audit of the United Kingdom. The graphic representations enable the audited State to prioritize
the necessary corrective actions and to identify assistance requirements based on its personnel, technical and
financial capabilities in consideration of its safety oversight obligations.
6. STATE AVIATION ACTIVITY QUESTIONNAIRE (SAAQ)
6.1 The SAAQ is one of the major tools required for conducting a comprehensive systems
approach-based safety oversight audit. As such, all Contracting States are required to complete the SAAQ and
submit it to ICAO for proper evaluation and recording. The submitted information enables ICAO to maintain
an up-to-date database on the State’s activities. The United Kingdom has submitted its SAAQs to ICAO, which
can be found at http://www.icao.int/soa.
7. COMPLIANCE CHECKLISTS (CCs)
7.1 The CCs are one of the main tools used in the conduct of safety oversight audits under the
comprehensive systems approach. As such, all Contracting States are required to complete the CCs and submit
them to ICAO for evaluation and recording. The submitted information enables ICAO to maintain an
up-to-date database on the State’s level of compliance to the ICAO SARPs and assist in facilitating the conduct
of a standardized audit of all Contracting States. As a result, States will be enabled to have a clear picture of
the implementation status of the relevant SARPs. The United Kingdom has submitted its CCs to ICAO, which
can be found at http://www.icao.int/soa.
8. FOLLOW-UP ACTION
8.1 In accordance with the MOU agreed to between the United Kingdom and ICAO, the United
Kingdom submitted corrective action plans for the UK Main, the Overseas Territories, and the Crown
- 61 -
Final Safety Oversight Audit Report — United Kingdom March 2010
Dependencies and Gibraltar on 16 September 2009 and updates to the action plans on 9 February and
26 March 2010. The action plans submitted were reviewed by the Safety Oversight Audit (SOA) Section and
were found to fully address all of the findings and recommendations contained in this report. The proposed
action plans, including comments and clarifications provided by the State, are attached as Appendix 3 to this
report. Comments by ICAO on each corrective action are found in Appendix 1 to this report.

AUDIT FINDING LEG/01
Please refer to Appendix 1A-1-01 of this report for the text of the finding and recommendations along
with the related protocol questions which should be considered in order to fully address this audit
finding.
STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK partially agrees with the finding and recommendation of the ICAO audit team.
With reference to the last sentence of the Finding, the units of measurement used in the UK are
actually set out in GEN 2.1 but it is true that the text under GEN 1.7 does not describe the
―differences‖ from Annex 5 but simply repeats the text contained in GEN 2.1. This will be addressed
in the actions below.
With reference to the last sentence of the Recommendation, as demonstrated to the ICAO Audit
Team, the UK already has procedures for dealing with amendments to ICAO Annexes, for the
identification and notification of differences to ICAO and for the publication of significant differences
in the AIP. These procedures will automatically come into play once it has been agreed which entity
should have the responsibility for Annex 5.
The Corrective Actions below are predicated on the assumption that the full implementation of
Annex 5 in the UK will involve three elements:
1. establish a policy as to the Units of Measurement to be used in ―air and ground operations‖.
2. ensure all legislation, regulations and regulatory requirements (ANO, CAPs, JARs, etc.) relevant
to ―air and ground operations‖ conform to the agreed policy on units to be used, and
3. ensure all relevant regulated organisations apply the agreed units
Unfortunately, ICAO has not defined the scope of ―air and ground operations‖ and the UK therefore
formally requests that this be considered by ICAO.
As regulatory requirements increasingly come under the auspices of the EU, any policy that the UK
would establish under 1. above would be unenforceable unless it coincided with EU Policy. The UK
therefore has limited scope to develop and implement its own policy on units of measurement.
The Corrective Actions below are therefore in two parts: ―long term‖ to request the EU to develop a
European solution to implementing ICAO Annex 5 and ―short term‖ to direct the CAA to implement
Annex 5 in so far as its legal competence will allow.

STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees with the finding and recommendation of the ICAO audit team.
CAA has reviewed draft EU legislation for aircraft operations and confirmed that a requirement for all
aircraft engaged in international air navigation to maintain a journey log book and to carry it on board
the aircraft is included. However, a requirement for the carriage on board of passenger and cargo
manifests is not included and UK will advise EASA accordingly.
In the short term, CAA will amend its requirements published in support of its discretionary powers

AUDIT FINDING LEG/03
Please refer to Appendix 1A-1-03 of this report for the text of the finding and recommendations along
with the related protocol questions which should be considered in order to fully address this audit
finding.
STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees that the EU needs to adopt rules requiring AOC holders and maintenance
organisations to establish safety management systems.
EC Regulation 216/2008 already recognises the need for such safety management systems in the
Essential Requirements established in the Annexes to the Basic Regulation. EASA has now published
its proposed rules regarding SMS in NPA 2008-22. They may be found in Organisation
Requirements, paragraph OR.GEN.200 and related acceptable means of compliance and guidance
material. The comments made during the consultation period will be reviewed and EASA will send an
opinion to the European Commission, for adoption of the relevant implementing rule before
8 April 2012. When published by the European Commission, these rules will be applicable to air
operators.
For continuing airworthiness and maintenance organisations (Part M Sub part G and Part 145), it is
planned to make the same rules applicable (Rulemaking task MDM.055) although, at the moment, no
timescales have been published for their applicability.
The United Kingdom, being an EASA Member State, is associated with this rulemaking process at all
stages (through participation in AGNA in particular) and will work closely with the European
Commission and EASA to ensure that the implementing rules are adopted as soon as practicable.
The CAA has already strongly recommended that all Operators and maintenance organisations
implement SMS through FODCOM 34/2008. It has produced guidance material for industry that
reflects the ICAO requirements in Annex 6 Part 1 and 3. It has provided SMS training to all Flight
Operations Inspectors and Airworthiness Surveyors that reflect the ICAO requirements. It has
procedures in place for the oversight of an SMS and is actively assessing implementation plans and
SMS components within its regulated organisations.

Act 2000.
For Instrument Flight Procedure (IFP) Design, an amendment to the Air Navigation Order is required
to allow the CAA to approve 3rd party procedure designers and to make it a requirement to have
instrument flight procedures approved by the CAA. To coincide with the ANO amendment coming
into force, the CAA will publish the necessary process and requirements in CAP 785, PANS-OPS
Design Requirements and CAP778, SID Policy Document (these CAPs already exist and are just
awaiting publication). In accordance with extant quality management systems, the internal process for
auditing 3rd party IFP designers will be contained in the DAP Directorate Manual. Those personnel

Furthermore, during inspections of operators and handlings agents, shippers of dangerous goods will
be required, on a random basis, to provide evidence of how they ensure compliance with the
Technical Instructions, including details of training programmes. Should the response from the
shipper be inadequate further action will be taken. In addition, if a dangerous goods incident

STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees with the finding and recommendation of the ICAO audit team.
Although the UK does not believe that there is any safety benefit to be had from certifying copies of
the AOC the UK has already pointed out to the European Commission and EASA the need for
European legislation to require aircraft involved in commercial air transportation to carry a certified
true copy of the AOC (including the operations specifications) in order to comply with Annex 6.
CAA has reviewed draft EU legislation for aircraft operations and confirmed that requirements for
aircraft involved in commercial air transportation to carry a certified true copy of the AOC (including
the corresponding operations specifications) are included. The UK will work closely with the

AUDIT FINDING AIR/01
Please refer to Appendix 1A-5-01 of this report for the text of the finding and recommendations along
with the related protocol questions which should be considered in order to fully address this audit
finding.
STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK partially agrees with the finding and recommendation of the ICAO audit team.
The UK does not agree with the finding that, for operations-derived equipment, it ―does not
effectively ensure compliance for aircraft being operated under an AOC‖. An AOC holder is approved
and the equipment fit for each fleet of aircraft, and any particular variation in aircraft configuration if
applicable, is determined by inspection as part of that approval. This establishes a defined ‗approved‘
configuration for the operator and the aircraft type, in accordance with the relevant requirements of
EU-OPS, JAR-OPS 3 or the Air Navigation Order as appropriate. The operator is required to confirm
to the CAA that any additional aircraft that are subsequently added to the approved fleet are compliant
with the agreed standard, thereby discharging the requirements of Annex 6, Part 1 and 3, for AOC
related operations.
The UK partially agrees with the finding that there is currently no system in place to routinely check
compliance with the aircraft operations-derived equipment standards of ICAO Annex 6 Part II or
Part III, section 3, for aircraft that are not operated under an AOC.
The transition from the UK National Certificate of Airworthiness (CofA), having defined Transport,
Aerial Work or Private Categories to the European EASA ‗Standard‘ CofA separated the assessment
of operational compliance from the C of A investigation process. The Standard CofA establishes
compliance with the minimum equipment standard required under the type certificate. It does not
establish the fitment of equipment to meet a particular operational requirement. EASA has not yet
implemented a corresponding operational requirement to address the issue of fitment of operational
equipment for a specific role but the CAA has reviewed draft EU legislation for aircraft operations
and confirmed that the aircraft operations-derived equipment standards of ICAO Annex 6 Part 1 and 3
related to EASA aircraft used for commercial air transport are included.
The CAA does not know for what purpose an aircraft is to be used on a particular flight. An aircraft
with a Standard CofA can be used for private flights, aerial work purposes (including flying training)
and public transport flights that do not require an AOC. Article 86 of the Air Navigation Order
(ANO) 2009 therefore prescribes that the aircraft commander shall satisfy himself that the aircraft is
fitted with the equipment required under the ANO (schedules 4 and 5) for the particular flight.
Therefore no action is proposed to establish requirements in respect of non-AOC operations.

AUDIT FINDING AIR/02
Please refer to Appendix 1A-5-02 of this report for the text of the finding and recommendations along
with the related protocol questions which should be considered in order to fully address this audit
finding.
STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees with the finding of the ICAO audit team but has reservations about the
recommendation.
The protocol questions referenced in the audit finding, AIR.5.283 and 5.535 refer to Annex 6 Part 1
Chapter 1Para 11.2 and Annex 6 Part 1 Para 8.3 respectively. Annex 6 refers to guidance material in
the form of Doc 9683. Doc 9683, which provides guidance on Human Factors, does not provide any
substantive guidance on what has to be addressed to meet the requirement for ‗observing human
factors principles‘ under Annex 6 Part 1 paras 8.2 or 8.3. This was discussed with and acknowledged
by the ICAO team. The UK is concerned that, in the absence of definitive guidance from ICAO,
States seeking to comply with this requirement would potentially adopt a unilateral interpretation. The
UK therefore formally requests ICAO to provide clarification on guidance relating to this subject in
order to assist Contracting States to address the issue.
It should be noted that it is CAA Airworthiness Policy to develop National requirements for non-
EASA aircraft that reflect the intent of EASA‘s requirements to ensure standardised regulation within
the UK. The ICAO Recommendation, which covers both EASA and non-EASA aircraft, will
therefore be addressed in essentially the same timeframe for both types of aircraft.

The UK partially agrees with the finding of the ICAO audit team.
The AAIB detail the essential qualifications and specialised criteria that has to be met for new recruits
to be considered for training as inspectors of air accidents. All new recruits attend a 6 week accident
investigation course at Cranfield University that satisfies, in part, the requirements for an MSc
qualification. OJT, under supervision, and specific training modules are delivered to the individual in
the following 2 years qualifying them as ‗Senior Inspectors‘. Continued professional development
training, identified by the individual or their line manager, is then provided on an on-going basis. This
training is recorded, however, the AAIB agree that the training in some areas has not been formalised
and inspectors are not provided with individual training plans (except for those agreed during their
annual reporting process) and their training records are not fully documented. A Training and
Development section of AAIB Operating manual will be developed to document and record the
training requirements and processes.
The AAIB will form a working group to address the establishment of a formal Training Programme
based on the existing training package that includes initial/basic training, OJT and continued
professional development. Training plans will be established for individual investigators and Line
Managers will monitor the effectiveness of each plan and review individual requirements during the

The UK agrees with the finding and recommendation of the ICAO audit team.
AAIB policies and procedures have been in existence for many years however their migration into the
AAIB Operating Manual (AAIBOM), a more comprehensive document, is not totally complete.
The Manual (4 Parts) is a controlled document approved by the Chief Inspector: Part A (General) —
covers daily administrative operations and health & safety ; Part B1 (Accident Investigation — the
Field Phase) — covers deployments and the 'Field' phase of accident investigation; Part B2 (Accident
Investigation — Investigation Management — covers the post 'Field' phase accident management
through to publication of reports; Part C (Training and Development) — describes the formal training
programme for AAIB staff.
Parts A, B1 and are complete. Parts B2 and C are under development. All sections of the AAIBOM
are automatically downloaded to inspector's laptop computers such that they have the most up to date
copy available 'in the field'. A master 'hard' copy of the Manual is held by the Deputy Chief Inspector
who is responsible for its adequacy and currency. The Manual is interactive allowing for 'point and

The current position in the UK is that recording of surveillance data, in accordance with ICAO
Annex 11, paragraph 6.4.1, is not mandatory but relevant ATS Providers are recommended to comply.
A difference to this effect has been notified to ICAO and has been published in the UK AIP. As a
consequence, radar recording has been implemented at all UK ACCs and at a majority of UK
international airports but some regional and minor airports with radar systems do not currently record
radar data. Many Regional Airports purchase Onward Routed Radar, in particular SSR data, from the
sole UK en-route service provider who records and retains that radar data for a minimum of 30 days
and makes it available as required.
Recognising, however, that the UK should move towards full compliance with the ICAO Standard,
the CAA issued a communication (ATSIN 127) to ATS providers, in March 2008 outlining its
proposals for mandating the automatic recording and retention of surveillance data. At that time, CAA
had intended to use powers under the UK Air Navigation Order to direct providers to comply with the
relevant provisions in ICAO Annex 11. It has subsequently been decided to make use of EC
Regulation 2096/2005 (the ―Common Requirements Regulation‖) together with an amendment to
CAP 670 (ATS Safety Requirements) to achieve this.
The CAA issued, on 24 July 2009, a consultation document to canvas views from industry on
proposals for a phased approach to full implementation: initial information gathering to determine the
full extent of existing surveillance data recording being carried out; a requirement to have time-
synchronised recording of voice and surveillance data by 31 December 2010 and, finally, a
requirement to have the ability to record screen shots from operational surveillance displays by
31 December 2011.

finding.
STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees with the finding and recommendation of the ICAO audit team.
The CAA DAP Policy Statement on the Application of ICAO Airspace Classification in UK Flight
Information Regions, declares the CAA‘s intention for UK Class F airspace to be progressively
replaced, by airspace classes better suited to the operational conditions associated with the airspace
structure in question. This policy will now be reviewed and strengthened.
The UK Airspace Strategy and Steering Group A (ASSG-A) will develop a programme for the
removal of Class F airspace. Whatever is proposed by the ASSG-A will need to be consulted upon, as
set out in CAP 724 – The Airspace Charter. Once consultation has been completed the
implementation of the change proposals arising from the CAP 724 consultation can be progressed; the
length of time needed for implementation will be dependent on the complexity of the changes agreed.
Completion will be identified by the promulgation of Aeronautical Information Circulars notifying the
arrangements and timeline for the removal of elements of Class F airspace on a case-by-case basis.

STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK partially agrees with the finding and recommendation of the ICAO audit team.
The UK finds the term ‗contingency procedure‘ misleading when used in relation to ―safety nets‖
such as MSAW. In PANS-ATM it appears that the relevant text relates to procedures for the use of
MSAW, not to MSAW failure.
Whilst the UK does not currently mandate the employment of the aforementioned 'safety nets', the
CAA does require ANSPs to argue through their SMS if the ANSP has chosen not to have the safety
net. However, where the safety net is put in place then the necessary procedures must be included in
the unit MATS Part 2. The UK agrees, however, that this requirement could be made clearer and the
action below is designed to address this.

finding.
STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK partially agrees with the finding and recommendation of the ICAO audit team. Publication
resolution is already achieved as per Annex 15 and 4. It is the integrity of aeronautical data that
cannot be assured at present and a Difference has been filed to this effect.
In order to address this issue, the UK‘s objective is to implement the European Commission (EC),
Single European Sky (SES), Aeronautical Data and Information Quality Implementing Rule (ADQ
IR). This IR will address the quality of all aeronautical data from survey/origination to the point of
publication and will become EU Law in February 2010.
In accordance with this IR, Member States will be required to put in place processes to manage new
aeronautical data to the required standard by July 2012 and, from that date, existing information will
progressively be brought up to standard as it becomes due for replacement. States will be required to
fully implement the IR by July 2017 by which time all information in the UK AIP will have been
brought up to standard. Once the requirements of the IR have been met, UK aeronautical information
will meet or exceed the published ICAO standards.
Detailed planning will take place during 2010 with the objective of developing the UK IR
implementation strategy and roadmap. This work will be taken forward within the Single European
Sky (SES) framework and legislation; the UK is bound by this process and will have to resolve this
finding within the context of the European lead. The CAA is working directly with the European
Commission on the development of this Implementing Rule.

Please refer to Appendix 1A-8-01 of this report for the text of the finding and recommendations along
with the related protocol questions which should be considered in order to fully address this audit
finding.
STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees with the finding but disagrees with the recommendation of the ICAO audit team.
The UK already has a mechanism for the safety oversight of military aerodromes used for
international civil operations. This mechanism is provided under regulations issued by the Ministry of
Defence (MoD). It is the policy of the MoD that their regulations shall conform to ICAO SARPs as
far as practicable provided that they do not conflict with military requirements. Where these military
requirements do not comply with civilian standards it must be for good operational reasons and any
alternatives must, where possible, provide at least the same levels of safety.
The MoD has a specialist regulatory service responsible for auditing military aerodromes to ensure
compliance with the standards of JSP 554 and, although this audit regime does not come within the
civil aerodrome certification process, the MoD believes it is comparable. It is recognised, however,
that closer liaison between the civil and military authorities would ensure that relevant military
regulations are kept in line with ICAO SARPs as far as practicable and the actions below are designed
to address this.

AUDIT FINDING AGA/02
Please refer to Appendix 1A-8-02 of this report for the text of the finding and recommendations along
with the related protocol questions which should be considered in order to fully address this audit
finding.
STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK partially agrees with the finding and recommendation of the ICAO audit team.
The prescriptive nature of the ICAO requirement “to ensure that fire extinguishing equipment and
trained personnel are available at the stands during the ground servicing of aircraft” is at odds with
the UK‘s objective-based and SMS-based regulatory approach.
The UK has established a mechanism for the provision of suitable fire safety arrangements in
workplaces and public places through ―The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005‖, which
applies to aircraft stands and aprons. This Order is objective-based and requires the responsible body
to ensure that the risk is mitigated. It does not specify how this is to be done. It could be by providing
fire extinguishers and trained personnel, or it could be by other means. The UK, therefore, believes
the intent of the ICAO requirement has been met.
In keeping with the principles of Safety Management, the UK has deliberately moved towards a risk-
based regulatory approach for this activity and away from a prescriptive approach. This Order is
enforced through the UK Health & Safety Executive (HSE) and, at airports, by the Local Authority
fire services.
As with any objective-based regulatory approach, a different style and type of oversight is necessary.
The CAA accepts that it is prudent to review the industry‘s implementation of the Regulatory Reform
(Fire Safety) Order 2005 to determine whether safety objectives are met, and to take appropriate
action if this is not the case. Therefore, the CAA will review the current processes to determine if any
improvements are necessary. The steps to be taken are outlined below.
The CAA has referred to protocol question AGA8.349 and the associated document references in
considering its reply.

STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK partially agrees with this finding and recommendation.
ASSI has published in the Policy and Coordination Manual (PacMan) Policy Statement 2
(Compliance with ICAO SARPs) which deals with the notification and publication of differences
from SARPs and with which the OTAAs have committed to comply. ASSI also has a company
operating procedure (COP 29 — Completing and maintaining ICAO Annex Compliance Checklists,
Differences and AIP material) in place that enables the identification of Differences via the
Compliance Checklists. This procedure was implemented in 2005 and differences between OTARs
and ICAO SARPS have been determined and provided to the OTAAs.
OTARs are now the only means of compliance for most regulatory areas. The transition stage for the
remaining area of airworthiness will be complete by 2012. However airworthiness does not generate
significant differences which need to be published in Territories‘ AIPs.
The OTARs are the sole gazetted means of compliance in Anguilla, the British Virgin Islands,
Montserrat, Cayman Islands, Falkland Islands and the Turks and Caicos Islands. BDCA is currently
implementing its transition plan for full adoption of the OTARs as the sole means of compliance.
Therefore the only Territory which needs to identify additional differences, to those already identified
by ASSI, is the BDCA.

finding.
STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK partially agrees with the finding and recommendation.
The role of ASSI is developing and changing. It is acknowledged that ASSI has been stretched by the
burden of establishing an entirely new set of requirements, providing more direct regulation than
expected and a period of intensive preparation for the audit. However, the bulk of the work on the
OTARs and the audit CCs and SAAQs has been completed and Territory DCAs are being designated
to take on more oversight responsibilities. The DfT also notes that ASSI may develop expertise in the
OTAAs which may enable OTAA staff to assist ASSI in some of its tasks, such as maintaining the
OTARs. The DfT therefore believes that ASSI‘s current staffing levels should be sufficient to allow it
to carry out its functions effectively in future. Nevertheless, the DfT will ensure that ASSI‘s
responsibilities and staffing levels are reviewed.
BDCA is currently undertaking a strategic plan review to recommend to the Government of Bermuda
the structure of the organisation to maintain the business and future growth potential.
Cayman Islands, Falkland Islands and Turks and Caicos Islands will each conduct a review of their
resources needed to service their regulatory workload now and in the foreseeable future. In addition,
ASSI will ensure, through their regular Territory assessments, that each OTAA has adequate
resources to carry out their regulatory functions and has in place a system to review, on a regular
basis, resource needs.

STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees with this finding and recommendation.
ASSI has a regulatory competency scheme, which provides a comprehensive approach to recruiting
staff, planning and implementing staff training and provides evidence for authorizations, which enable
staff to carry out their tasks and responsibilities. Training programme requirements for the different
disciplines are encapsulated in these competencies.
During the audit, ASSI‘s regulatory competency scheme was examined and was accepted by the
auditors as being an appropriate system, which addressed the requirement for training programmes.
This was accepted for ASSI and for the three Territories for which ASSI is the sole regulator: British
Virgin Islands, Montserrat and Anguilla.
The regulatory competency scheme is partially rolled out within the remaining Territories and will be
implemented throughout all of the Territories over the next two years. In the meanwhile guidance on
training programmes will be developed for the Territories.
Training is one of the elements that is reviewed by ASSI in the assessment process of the OTAAs.
CAA of the Cayman Islands (CAACI) has a policy and procedures to support training. It has
processes in place to identify and evaluate training and it also maintains training records for its staff.
The Falklands Islands Civil Aviation Department (FICAD) has a comprehensive policy for training,
further actions for developing training management systems are shown below.
NOTE: The PQs relating to this action were found to be satisfactory during the audit of ASSI
covering Anguilla, British Virgin Islands and Montserrat.

STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees with this finding and recommendation.
At the present time the following Territories use validation of licences issued by another ICAO
Contracting State rather than issuing licences themselves: Bermuda; Falkland Islands.
Cayman Islands use a licence format for aircraft maintenance engineers that they have developed
utilising machinery capable of producing credit card size plastic licences that is not available in other
Territories. In addition, Cayman Islands also validate licences issued by other ICAO Contracting
States.
The Turks and Caicos Islands use a format developed in line with previous United Kingdom CAA
regulations in addition to validating licences issued by other ICAO Contracting States.
A new format will be developed via the corrective action below for use in Anguilla, the British Virgin
Islands and Montserrat and available for use in the other Territories.

Please refer to Appendix 1B-4-09 of this report for the text of the finding and recommendations along

finding.
STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees with this finding and recommendation.
In general, surveillance programmes and enforcement procedures exist and are being followed but it is
recognised that, in the main, these concentrate on AOC holders and holders of foreign aircraft
operating permits. Surveillance programmes will therefore be expanded to cater for all operators,
handling agents and, where feasible, shippers and enforcement procedures will be developed to cater
for any transgression of the Regulations.
ASSI has established enforcement procedures as outlined in Policy and Co-ordination Manual
(PacMan) Part Four — Technical Procedures — TP 1-4. These procedures cover all areas and include
provision for the institution of penal action against operators, handling agents and shippers by
Territory law officers for breaches of the regulations. These procedures, which will be followed in
Anguilla, British Virgin Islands and Montserrat in the event of non-compliance with the established
requirements, will now be reviewed and amended (as necessary) and offered to the other Territories
for adoption or adaptation.

The UK agrees with this finding and recommendation.
The long-term aim is to develop a common set of Accident Investigation Regulations applicable to all
Territories; however, this will be dependent on a revision of the 1996 UK Regulations and of the
Primary Legislation. In the meantime, the existing Territory Regulations will be reviewed and
amended as necessary to address this finding and recommendation.

STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK partially agrees with this finding and recommendation.
The AAIB has sufficient resources to meet the immediate needs of supporting the Territories in
aircraft accident investigation. However, AAIB intends to establish a ―training coordination‖ position,
on a one year trial basis initially, to manage and coordinate the specific training needs of AIMs and
the general training for in-theatre personnel.

STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK disagrees with this finding, however, the UK agrees with the recommendation to use a
compatible taxonomy.
During the audit ASSI showed that it has a paper-based occurrence database, which ASSI believes is
acceptable to the sample size, from which ASSI can analyse information obtained from the occurrence
reporting system as requested under PQ 6.507. Whilst ASSI does accept that the current system does
not use a taxonomy compatible with the ICAO ADREP system, it is the intention that ASSI and the
OTAAs should move to the adoption of ECCAIRS software in due course in line with progress by
UK CAA towards that end. In the meantime, ASSI is of the view that its current system is compliant
with Annex 13 and does not believe that this finding should include PQ 6.507.

The requirement for Contingency Plans exists in Overseas Territories Aviation Requirement
(OTAR) 172.123 (Air Traffic Service Organisation Approval) and although some units already have
contingency plans, they do not fully meet the guidance as contained in Attachment C of Annex 11 and
Doc 4444 2-4.

finding.
STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK partially agrees with this finding and recommendation.
During the audit ASSI showed that it had criteria for implementation and evaluation of SMS
(including requirements for and guidance on developing an acceptable level of safety performance for
each unit) as requested under PQ 7.171.
ASSI will continue to check the implementation progress of Safety Management Systems at those
units not operating under an SMS.
In addition the BDCA comments that:
a) Not applicable to BDCA – ATS SMS implemented & acceptable to BDCA
b) Acceptable level of safety to be achieved is established & was at the time of the audit
c) Oversight of the ATS SMS had been carried out at the time of the audit.
Evidence covering all of the above points was presented to the auditors at the time of the ASSI and
Bermuda audits. Therefore the UK formally requests that PQ 7.171 be removed from the finding.

STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK partially agrees with this finding and recommendation.
BDCA had thought that it had shown satisfactory evidence for this and that it was not relevant to
Bermuda; however, this evidence may have been overlooked due to the heavy workload of the
auditors during this busy period.
This finding seems to be a specific instance already covered by the generality of ANS/01. Therefore
corrective action will mainly be achieved through the action plan for findings ANS/01 which will
capture the establishment of the oversight system (including requirements and guidance material);
ANS/13 for procedures and training of regulatory staff; and ANS/14, if applicable, which covers the
elimination of deficiencies.

STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK partially agrees with this finding and recommendation.
During the audit ASSI provided evidence of an MOU in place (plus the Eastern Caribbean
Agreement) that provides for SAR in the areas in which the Territories are located as requested under
7.483. Furthermore as all of the Territories are small island communities with limited resources it is
not practical for any of them to provide an RCC; as none of the Territories is an RCC we do not
believe that ANS 7.511 is applicable and therefore should not have a finding. Finally, the MOU
between UK/US/Canada provides for access to each other‘s Territory and there should not be a
finding on ANS 7.519.
The corrective actions under ANS/01, ANS/13 and ANS/14 will capture the establishment of the
oversight system for AIS, cartography, MET and SAR including requirements, guidance material,
procedures and training of regulatory staff.

Please refer to Appendix 1B-8-01 of this report for the text of the finding and recommendations along

STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK already has a mechanism for the safety oversight of military aerodromes used for
international civil operations. This is detailed in the UK‘s response to finding AGA/01 for UK Main.
This mechanism applies to all UK military aerodromes including those in the Overseas Territories.
The corrective action plan for UK will therefore also address this finding.
The term ‗Government Aerodrome‘ under the AN(OT)O applies only to the Military Aerodromes
which are only sited in the Falkland Islands and Ascension, a dependency of St. Helena.

STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees with this finding. The UK agrees with the intent of the recommendation but can accept
an alternative method which produces an equivalent level of safety if it proves not possible to
certificate Little Cayman aerodrome. The sole commercial air transport operator into this aerodrome
does so on the basis of an exemption, issued by CAACI, which includes conditions to mitigate risk.
This finding and recommendation relates only to the Cayman Islands.

finding.
STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees with this finding and recommendation.
From the survey of the situation in all of the Territories, it is only Bermuda that this finding and
recommendation relates to.
This is not applicable in Anguilla and Montserrat due to distance from aerodrome to water.
In the British Virgin Islands, arrangements are in place including stationing of a fire and rescue boat
for Terrence B. Lettsome and Virgin Gorda aerodromes. Not applicable to Anegada due to distance
from water.
Not applicable to Stanley Airport, Falkland Islands due to distance from water.
In the Cayman Islands arrangements are in place including stationing of a fire and rescue boat for the
two certified aerodromes.
In Turks & Caicos Islands (TCI) coverage is provided at Ambergris Cay aerodrome. For the
remaining aerodromes in the TCI, it is not applicable either due to distance from water or the terrain
between the runway ends and water would preclude aircraft overrunning the runway end safety areas
from reaching the water. The overrun scenario is considered to be the greatest hazard and the one
which needs to be considered.
All the Islands have a developed marine rescue service which would handle ditching.

The UK agrees with this finding and recommendation.
The IoM CAA has contracted with CAA International for audits which will start and complete with
meetings between the auditors and the IoM CAA. The IoM CAA will ensure that the findings and
their associated actions are closed by the agreed timescales and will forward details of the closure
actions to the auditors seeking confirmation that the action adequately addresses the finding.
The UK Department for Transport considers that this finding is not applicable to Gibraltar where an
annual audit of the ATC unit is already required by the civil authority. The last audit taking place in
November 2008. The other issues are currently the responsibility of the UK military authorities and
subject to the requirements of the relevant Joint Service Publications.
The UK Department for Transport considers that this finding is applicable to the Bailiwicks of
Guernsey and Jersey.
The Guernsey DCA has a contract with CAA International for the provision of advice and support and
safety oversight audits in the areas of ATS (including CNS). AIS and Charts are expected to be
covered through a MoU with CAA (DAP) (awaiting co-ordination with DfT). A combined audit of
the provision of MET services in Guernsey and Jersey as a combined audit arranged through CAA

STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees with the finding of the ICAO audit team. IoM Airport is in the process of constructing
a new control tower. The project started in August 2008 and the physical completion is due by the end
of 2009, and it is expected to go operational by April 2010. A system for the recording and retention
of ATS voice and surveillance data will be installed as part of this project. The project is currently on
time.
The Jersey and Guernsey DCA agrees with the finding. However, although there is no requirement,
all radar surveillance data used by Jersey and Guernsey ATS is recorded along with the voice data.
The UK Department for Transport considers that this finding is not applicable to Gibraltar. The ATC
provision at Gibraltar Airport is the responsibility of the UK military authorities and subject to the

STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees with the finding of the ICAO audit team.
The Isle of Man Airport is in the process of constructing a new control tower. The project started in
August 2008 and the physical completion is due by the end of 2009, and it is expected to go
operational by April 2010. The project is currently on time. A system to ensure that ATC contingency
procedures are established for STCA and MSAW will be installed as part of this project.
The UK Department for Transport does not consider that this matter is applicable to the Bailiwicks of
Guernsey and Jersey or Gibraltar.
The ATC provision at Gibraltar Airport is the responsibility of the UK military authorities and subject
to the requirements of the relevant Joint Service Publications.
The Guernsey DCA notes that while STCA is available in Guernsey it is not used due to the nature of
airspace management and in accordance with normal procedures around aerodromes. Alternative
procedures to minimise potential conflicts exist and are promulgated in the Guernsey Airport’s
Manual of Air Traffic Services (MATS) part 2 which has been approved by the DCA. The current
radar does not offer MSAW. Guernsey and Alderney Airports are built on the highest point of the
islands and there is no higher ground in the area.
The Jersey DCA notes that STCA is used by Jersey ATC throughout the Class A Airspace of the
Channel Islands Control Zone – Area of Responsibility and within Jersey Channel Islands Control
Zone Area of Interest. STCA is not used within the Class D sections notified as Jersey, Guernsey and
Alderney CTRs in accordance with normal procedures around aerodromes. STCA regions and
procedures are detailed within the Jersey MATS Part 2 which is approved by the DCA. The current
radar and associated radar systems do not offer MSAW.

STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees with this finding and recommendation.
The UK Department for Transport does not consider that this finding is applicable to Gibraltar. The
ATC provision at Gibraltar Airport is the responsibility of the UK military authorities and subject to
the requirements of the relevant Joint Service Publications.. However, the current Air Traffic Service
in Gibraltar is provided under contract by National Air Traffic Services and their SMS has been
approved by the UK CAA and the Gibraltar DCA.
The UK Department for Transport considers that this finding is applicable to Bailiwicks of Guernsey
and Jersey.
The Guernsey DCA accepts the finding of the ICAO audit team. Schedule 2 of the Aviation
(Bailiwick of Guernsey) Law 2008 in indicates the UK CAPs applicable in the Bailiwick of Guernsey.
These include CAP 670 which makes the operation of an effective SMS an obligation. However, the
Guernsey ATS SMS is still in the process of implementation and has not yet been formally approved.
A process for monitoring the SMS once it is implemented is being developed
The Jersey DCA accepts the finding of the ICAO audit team. The Air Navigation (Jersey) Order 2008
Art 137B mandates the DCA to issue requirements for aviation safety. A requirement has been issued
(JDCAP-01 rev 3.0 15/11/08) which obligates the service provider to comply with CAP670 (among
others) and operate an effective SMS an obligation.
Jersey Airport has been certified as an Air Navigation Service Provider in accordance with
EC directive 2096/2005. Jersey ATS SMS has been implemented and was audited for suitability by
UK CAA in Oct 2008. The SMS is subject to a regular internal audit programme and external audits
by CAA International are contracted on an 18 month cycle. SMS performance is also monitored on an
ongoing basis through metrics such as incident report frequency, investigation closure and safety
culture dip tests. Performance monitoring of the SMS is also conducted by the Jersey Airport safety
compliance manager.

finding.
STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees with the finding of the ICAO audit team.
The Isle of Man CAA notes that the barrier in the area of the terminal and aircraft apron is illuminated
indirectly by the apron flood lighting system. In the light of the threat to aircraft, this is considered to
meet the minimum essential level.
The UK Department for Transport has determined that this recommendation applies to Bailiwicks
Guernsey and Jersey. The finding is not applicable to Gibraltar.
The Guernsey DCA partially accepts the finding of the ICAO audit team. Local aviation security
legislation puts responsibility for aviation security on the airport operator. However, the DCA ensures
that when the Airport plans changes to security items that may impact on Annex 14 compliance, such
changes will be made to ensure compliance with Annex 14. A Memorandum of Understanding
between DfT and the airport operator governing aviation security arrangements has been drafted.
The Jersey DCA partially accepts the finding of the ICAO audit team. The installation of the new
security fence scheduled for completion Sept 2009, has been specified in accordance with the
requirements defined by DfT TRANSEC and Annex 14 (as interpreted in CAP168). A Memorandum
of Understanding on Aviation Security between the States of Jersey and the Department for Transport
has been agreed. It not considered that the aerodrome regulator has any authority in respect of aviation
security matters other than those that directly involve the ANSP. The airport director is responsible
for aviation security under the Aviation Security (Jersey) Order 1993. The DfT provides regulatory
oversight for security matters.

AUDIT FINDING AGA/02
Please refer to Appendix 1C-8-02 of this report for the text of the finding and recommendations along
with the related protocol questions which should be considered in order to fully address this audit
finding.
STATE’S COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS
The UK agrees with the finding of the ICAO audit team.
The UK Department for Transport has determined that this recommendation applies to the Bailiwicks
of Guernsey and Jersey and to Gibraltar
The Guernsey DCA accepts the finding of the ICAO audit team. Appropriate and acceptable
procedures are already in place at Guernsey but there is no legal requirement. Fire extinguishing
equipment and trained personnel are available to attend during ground servicing of aircraft in the
event of an incident during aerodrome operating hours. Emergency call points are established adjacent
to aircraft stands, and the overall apron is under ATC management with usual emergency call
processes. Direction notices prevent ground running of aircraft at night, all aircraft movements by
companies must be conducted with tugs overnight. Apron fire points exist which can be used by
company trained personnel after airport close.
The Jersey DCA accepts the finding of the ICAO audit team. Appropriate and acceptable procedures
are already in place at Jersey but there is no legal requirement. Fire extinguishing equipment and
trained personnel are available to attend during ground servicing of aircraft in the event of an incident
during aerodrome operating hours. Emergency call points are established adjacent to aircraft stands,
and the overall apron is under ATC management with usual emergency call processes. Operational
Procedures prevent ground running of aircraft at night. No aircraft movements allowed overnight.
The Gibraltar DCA accepts the finding of the ICAO audit team. Current practice and risk analysis has
concluded that risk is best met by calling out the RFF service, which is available on a 24 hr basis
365 days per year. However, the handling agent is in the process of training his personnel in the use of
first aid fire fighting equipment and it is his intention to deploy such equipment whenever ground
servicing takes place on the stands.
