INTRODUCTION

The Planes of Fame Air Museum (Museum) is committed to maintaining the highest 

level of safety in our efforts to preserve historic aircraft and educate the public. Central to the 

effort of implementing and coordinating our safely program is the Safely Management System 

(SMS). This system provides management with the tools to develop and maintain safety 

throughout the scope of Planes of Fame operations. Museum personnel are provided with the 

awareness, training and tools to implement the SMS. The SMS makes Museum safety a normal 

part of operations and is in keeping with contemporary aviation safety practices.

The Planes of Fame Air Museum Safety Management System is under the direct control 

of the President and the Board of Directors. The SMS is implemented and managed by the Safety 

Coordinators. Other key personnel are the Chief Pilot and the Volunteer Coordinator.

PLANES OF FAME SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

EFFECTIVE 1 JUNE 2014

THE SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM SUMMARY

Safety is developed and maintained in a management structure utilizing current SMS 

methods. The Planes of Fame safety culture is fostered first by the awareness of its members. 

Safety is to be paramount. No factor, consideration or situation should be allowed to supersede 

the importance of safety in museum matters. All museum personnel shall be trained in the SMS 

system. Regular reports will be given at meetings to update management and members of current 

SMS progress and issues. A safety committee shall meet once per quarter. The current status of 

the SMS shall be given to management quarterly.

Contemporary safety management is built around the philosophy of catching problems in 

the early stages of their development before they become hazardous. Historically, aviation safety 

has evolved in phases. Great effort has been spent on the safety of aircraft design. As aircraft 

themselves became a smaller part of the safety picture, operational methods were carefully 

analyzed. Better weather reporting, standard operating procedures, and rest requirements led to 

higher levels of safety. Crew resource management (CRM) was developed. CRM addressed the 

idea that with safe aircraft and procedures in place, the attitudes of people in the workplace 

remained as a risk factor. Aviation now benefits from safe equipment, sound operating 

procedures and personnel trained in teamwork and resource management.

SMS represents the next step forward in reducing hazard. The museum promotes a safety 

culture where risks are analyzed ahead of time. Reports of hazards are sought from all members, 

throughout the organization. These reports are studied. Hazards are mitigated as soon as possible 

and reports are watched for developing patterns. The goal of the SMS is to make the museum 

predictive rather than reactive to hazard. SMS philosophy allows an error chain to be broken 

before harm can occur.

___________________________________________________

PLANES OF FAME SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

EFFECTIVE 1 JUNE 2014

THE SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM COMPONENTS

The components of the SMS are; the Risk Assessment, the Hazard Report and the 

Discrepancy Sheet. These forms are located in the Planes of Fame Safety Management System 

book. Electronic copies are available to all members. SMS reports are reviewed upon submission 

and at the quarterly safety meetings. Risk Assessment and Hazard Report forms are compiled in 

the Planes of Fame Safety Management System Office Copy. Discrepancy Sheets are maintained 

in the "Fighter Rebuilders" office. All SMS reports are reviewed and reports are regularly made 

to management.

The Risk Assessment is completed when out of the ordinary activities are conducted. If it 

is believed that an operation involves several risk factors then a Risk Assessment shall be filled 

out and submitted. Factors that are of little concern by themselves can be compounded when 

several occur at the same time. The Risk Assessment is a list of factors that could influence an 

operation. These factors are rated on the form and when they exist their corresponding box is 

checked. The total number of perceived risk factors is then recorded at the bottom. A Risk 

Assessment with a total score exceeding 10 shall be presented to a director for discussion. The 

date and initials of the involved personnel shall be recorded on the Risk Assessment. The Risk 

Assessment will be placed into the Planes of Fame Safety Management System Office Copy.

A Hazard Report will be the most commonly encountered SMS component for most museum 

members. It is a form that simply records an item or event that causes someone to perceive a 

safety hazard. An exposed length of extension cord, a storage shelf with material blocking a 

walkway or an aircraft operating too near bystanders are examples. Of course, the list of possible 

findings is without limit. Hazard reports are submitted for review and passed on to the 

appropriate management personnel. An appropriate person will address the issue. That person 

will make a brief description of the corrective action, date and initial the Hazard Report. The 

Hazard Report will be placed into the Planes of Fame Safety Management System Office Copy.

The Hazard Report is also the most likely to provide insight into systemic museum safety issues. 

Safely personnel and management might, for example, notice several reports of aircraft operating 

near bystanders. The museum could act to train line personnel and paint more visible bystander 

area lines. This effort then increases safety, breaks an error chain and possibly prevents a future 

problem.

Discrepancy Sheets are related specifically to aircraft operations. Each aircraft shall have 

Discrepancy Sheets available for use and review by pilots that operate the aircraft. When a factor 

is noticed regarding the operation of an aircraft, a pilot will complete a Discrepancy Sheet. 

Subsequent pilots will review active aircraft Discrepancy Sheets before each flight. Pilots and 

maintenance personnel will then have the benefit of knowing about and keeping informed on

aircraft issues. This program does not in any way effect FAA airworthiness or record 

requirements for aircraft. It is an awareness tool so that things like difficult latches, low (but 

acceptable) oil, or tire pressure or weak radio reception can be tracked. Once again, this allows 

for the possibility of solving a problem (e.g. removing an intermittent radio) before it creates a 

safety hazard.

duties from time to time in order to assure compliance with the anti-drug and 

anti-alcohol regulations of Part 120, 121, 135 and 91. All duties require very little effort on 

your part. We have listed these responsibilities below. Please become familiar with them, 

and if you have any problems, you are entitled to as much consultation as needed to 

help you comply. Just give us a call whenever you have a question or problem.

1. Get a 3-ring binder to keep all these materials in, and make copies of them 

as needed. Don't use the originals — you'll need copies later.

2. Set up a separate group of file folders for the employees in your company 

who are subject to drug and alcohol testing. See "Employees Subject to Testing" on 

page 6 of the Consortium Anti-Drug Program for a list of job functions which are required 

to be tested. Make a file folder for each employee, and keep this set of files in a locked 

cabinet, or a place where the files will not be accessible by anyone but you. These files 

should be kept permanently, even after an employee has left your employ. Into each file 

should go the following:

a. All drug and alcohol test results for that employee, including the 

"employer copy" of the drug-test Custody and Control form.

b. The employee's signed drug-training certification form.

c. The employee's alcohol policy acknowledgment form.

A Random drawing for the Consortium was conducted today, and the following covered employee(s) in 

your company was (were) selected for a random drug test, OR a random drug test AND breath alcohol 

test, as indicated:

Planes of Fame Steve Hinton drug ONLY 2/6/2015

*** Each selected employee must proceed to the testing/collection site immediately upon being notified 

by you, the program manager, in order to be in compliance with the regulations. If you, the program 

manager, are one of those selected on this letter for a random test, reading this letter is YOUR 

notification to proceed immediately to the testing/collection site, in order to be in compliance. Failure to 

do so will result in a condition of "Refusal to Test," which carries the same consequences as a 

"Positive" drug and/or alcohol test result.

1. Send a "drug kit" (a "kit" is a C & C form and an airbill) with the employee;

2. If alcohol test is specified, MAIL OR FAX A COPY OF THE RESULT TO 81 6-943-9464. YOU WILL NOT

RECEIVE CREDIT FOR THE ALCOHOL TEST IF WE DO NOT GET A COPY OF THE RESULT.

3. SAVE THIS LETTER IN YOUR COMPANY DRUG FILE.

If selected for an alcohol test, the employee should be told to report for the alcohol test immediately before, 

immediately after, or while performing covered duties. The drug test collection can be done at the same time. It is 

best to pick a time, notify the individual(s), and send them directly to the testing site. YOU MUST TELL THE 

EMPLOYEE TO TELL THE LAB TECHNICIAN IF A BREATH ALCOHOL TEST (YOU BLOW INTO A

BREATH TEST MACHINE) IS TO BE DONE AND NOT TO LEAVE THE COLLECTION SITE 

WITHOUT HAVING DONE THE BREATH TEST AND OBTAINING THE RESULT. THE 

TECHNICIAN WILL NOT KNOW TO DO AN ALCOHOL TEST UNLESS SOMEONE TELLS HIM. Failure to do 

a required alcohol test is considered a REFUSAL TO TEST, which carries the same consequences as a 

POSITIVE test result.

PLEASE FOLLOW UP!!! IF YOU HAVEN'T RECEIVED YOUR DRUG TEST RESULT WITHIN 7 DAYS, 

something has gone wrong, and you must CALL US.

All random tests must be scheduled and accomplished before the end of the quarterly testing period, which for 

this drawing is March 31, 2015.
