Aircraft management guidelines
1 Introduction
1.1 Purpose
The purpose of these guidelines is to provide a ready reference for the management of aviation. It deals with operations from the conceptual phase onwards. In doing so it addresses the factors to be taken into account when contemplating aircraft operations, the tendering and contractual process, the setting up of support facilities and the expectations required of our contractors.
Most Governments have some form of National (Civil) Aviation Authority, the function of which is to lay down standards and requirements for both the aircraft and the manner in which they are operated. However, Aviation Authorities vary in their effectiveness as well as their requirements and standards, although a good aircraft operator may apply guidelines that are more exacting than legis-lated requirements. Indeed, even the best Aviation Authority can only lay down minimum require-ments; the ultimate responsibility for safety in the air lies with the aircraft operator.
These guidelines and the readily available support from Aviation Advisers should assist those respon-sible for managing aviation, particularly if they are not aviation specialists, to plan, develop and con-trol, safely and efficiently, air transport operations that are best suited to their needs.
1.2 Document structure
These guidelines are divided into two parts:
.
Part 1 contains the current guidelines for aircraft operations.
.
Part 2 contains additional guidance and explanatory material describing how the defined guide-
lines and policies can best be applied. Part 2 of the document is still under development.
It is emphasised that nothing in this document is intended to contravene national or international regulations.
1.3 OGP guidelines
OGP has developed the set of safety guidelines contained in this manual based on a number of core guidelines and recognised industry best practices. The guidelines are largely based on existing international legislation and safety codes but, where appropriate are further developed as described in this manual. The regulatory basis for these guidelines is summarised in Part 2.
Where these guidelines cannot be achieved fully for practical reasons, an aviation adviser should, wherever practicable, seek mitigating measures with a view to achieving an equivalent level of safety.
For specific operations, these guidelines may need to be augmented with specified additional guide-lines to reflect the local circumstances and operating conditions.
1.4 Setting an aviation policy
Companies should consider the establishment of an aviation policy to provide guidelines for the safe, economic and efficient use of aircraft in support of company operations. Such a policy would apply equally to company and contractors’ personnel.
As an example, the aviation policy could require that:
.
Preference is given to the use of those international airlines and regional carriers with low acci-dent rates. Where any doubt exists, advice should be sought from an aviation adviser.
.
Exposure to high-risk operations should be minimised.
