(2008/C 231/01)

1. THE EC SAFA PROGRAMME

1.1. Origins of the EC SAFA programme

Initially the SAFA programme was launched by the European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC) in 1996. The SAFA programme was not based upon a European legal binding basis but upon a commitment of the Directors General of the participating ECAC Member States. The scope of the inspections relating to ‘foreign’ aircraft implied those aircraft which are not used or operated under the control of the competent authority of the State where the inspection takes place.

On 30 April 2004 Directive 2004/36/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the safety of third-country aircraft using Community airports (the so-called SAFA Directive) was published, creating a legal obligation upon EU Member States to perform ramp inspections upon third country aircraft landing at their airports, where ‘third country aircraft’ implied an aircraft which is not used or operated under control of a competent authority of an EU Member State; although the Directive does in no way prohibit EU Member States from inspecting aircraft from other EU Member States. EU Member States were given a window of two years for implementing this Directive through the enactment of national legislation.

Following a decision by the Directors General of ECAC Member States, the SAFA programme was transferred under European Community (EC) competence where as of 1 January 2007, responsibility for the management and further development of the EC SAFA programme falls upon the European Commission assisted by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). EASA is a European Commission agency based in Cologne which is responsible for the operational management of the EC SAFA programme on behalf of the same Commission in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No 768/2006.

Until 2006 the operational elements of the SAFA programme were implemented by the Central Joint Aviation Authorities (CJAA). At the end of 2006 the SAFA coordination activities including the centralised database have been transferred from CJAA to EASA.

The continued participation of the 15 non-EU ECAC Member States, and thus the pan-European dimension of the programme, has been assured through the signature of a Working Arrangement between 14 of these individual States and EASA. Including the EU-27 therefore, the EC-SAFA programme boasts a total of 41 Participating States (see Appendix A). In late 2007, Albania too signed a Working Arrangement which became effective as of 1 January 2008.

1.2. Functioning of the EC SAFA programme

In each SAFA Participating State, aircraft (third-country for EU States or foreign for non-EU ECAC States) can be subject to a ramp inspection, chiefly concerned with the aircraft documents and manuals, flight crew licenses, the apparent condition of the aircraft and the presence and condition of mandatory cabin safety equipment. The references for these inspections are contained in the Standards of the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) Annexes 1 (Personnel Licensing), 6 (Operations of Aircraft) and 8 (Airworthiness of Aircraft).

These checks are carried out in accordance with a procedure which is common to all Participating States. Their outcome is then the subject of reports which also follow a common format. In the case of significant irregularities, the operator and the appropriate Aviation Authority (State of Operator or Registry) are contacted in order to arrive at corrective measures to be taken not only with regard to the aircraft inspected but also with regard to other aircraft which could be concerned in the case of an irregularity which is of a generic nature. All data from the reports as well as supplementary information are shared and centralised in a computerised database set up and managed by EASA.

The main features of the EC SAFA programme can be summarised as follows:

— its application by all SAFA Participating States — in principle all 42 ECAC Member States with the exception of Albania (EU Member States and non-EU ECAC Member States that have signed the EASA Working Arrangement,

— the broad dissemination of inspection results through a SAFA centralised database,

— its bottom-up approach: the programme is built around ramp inspections of aircraft,

— its focused attention — primarily focusing on third country aircraft flying to the EU and SAFA Participating States (although SAFA inspections may continue to be performed on aircraft from EU Member States),

— its inherent objective of checking for compliance with ICAO Standards which are commonly applicable to all inspected aircraft internationally.

1.3. Integration of the EC SAFA programme in the overall aviation safety chain

Based upon the SAFA inspections performed over the last few years, experience shows that these give a general indication of the safety of foreign operators. However, this indication is limited in the sense that no full picture is obtained about the safety of any particular aircraft or operator. This is due to the fact that certain aspects are difficult to assess during an inspection (e.g. Crew Resource Management, full airworthiness status, etc.) owing to the limited time available to perform an inspection and consequently the limited level of detail possible during such an inspection. The value of those indicators will be further enhanced by increasing also the level of harmonisation across the participating states in the performance of SAFA inspections.

A full assessment of a particular aircraft or operator can only be obtained through the continuous oversight by the responsible Aviation Authority (State of Operator or State of Registry). In this manner, the information gained through the EC SAFA programme is useful:

— primarily as a pre-emptive tool helping to identify potential negative safety trends, whereby a numerous and/or recurring number of findings concerning a particular operator, is a very good indicator of potential structural weaknesses both with regard to the quality control management of that operator as well as the level of safety oversight exercised by the responsible national civil aviation authorities of the state where that operator is certified; similar negative trends may also be identified concerning specific aircraft types,

— more directly, SAFA inspections may contribute in real-time to the safe operation of the particular aircraft which has just been inspected prompting the inspecting authorities to ensure that corrective actions are taken immediately prior to any further operations being conducted by that aircraft.

Additionally, since the coming into force of Regulation (EC) No 2111/2005 establishing a list of carriers which are banned from flying into EC territory, SAFA inspections have acquired an increased importance as one of the criteria considered by the Commission in taking its decisions on the inclusion of carriers in the Community list. Indeed, this has been the case since the establishment of the first Community list in March 2006 and its subsequent regular updates.

1.4. Development of the programme in 2007

In 2007, the SAFA programme continued to evolve further, the main developments being:

— in July 2007, the first regular quality review was performed on the database content. The objective of these regular reviews is to identify possible errors in the reports prior to the regular analysis of the database. Suspected deficiencies are sent to the Participating States with the request to investigate and correct any confirmed deficiency as necessary. A second quality review has been performed in September and will continue to be performed henceforth on a four monthly basis,

— in October 2007, the first regular analysis of the data contained in the SAFA centralised database was performed. The analysis will continue to be performed henceforth on a four monthly basis and ranks the inspected operators based on their ‘safety performance’ as computed from the inspection results,

— the SAFA centralised database has been ‘rebranded’ (from the former JAA branding to an EASA-styled layout) in November 2007,

— a virtual SAFA community was established — using the ‘SINAPSE’ communication platform — as the main vehicle for exchanging information (other than ramp inspection reports) on the EC SAFA programme.

1.5. Why this report?

Article 6 (2) of Directive 2004/36/EC provides that:

‘The Commission shall publish yearly an aggregated information report available to the public and the industry stakeholders containing an analysis of all information received in accordance with Article 5. That analysis shall be simple and easy to understand and shall indicate whether there exists an increased safety risk to air passengers. In the analysis, the source of that information shall be dis-identified.’

This report is the first report covering a full year — from 1 January to 31 December 2007.

2. SAFA CENTRALISED DATABASE

The SAFA centralised Database has been managed by EASA since December 2006, when it was transferred from the Central Joint Aviation Authorities (CJAA) in the Netherlands to EASA in Cologne, Germany.

Although it is managed and maintained by EASA, the inclusion of reports in the database remains a responsibility of the individual National Aviation Authorities (NAA) of SAFA Participating States.

In 2007 the SAFA Participating States performed some 8 594 inspections which revealed some 12,073 findings (see Appendix A).

Data contained in the database is considered confidential in the sense that it is only shared with other Participating States and is not available to the general public. The database can be accessed by all National Aviation Authorities of Participating States via the (secured) internet. At present, 39 National Aviation Authorities are connected on-line to the database.

3. AREAS OF INSPECTION

According to the ‘SAFA Directive’, aircraft suspected of non-compliance with international safety standards (based on e.g. regular analysis of the database by EASA) must be inspected with priority by the Member States. Furthermore the SAFA ramp inspections may be carried out using a spot-check procedure.

There are five areas on which the inspections can be focused:

1. specific State of operator (checking operators from a particular State);

2. specific aircraft type;

3. specific nature of operations (scheduled, non-scheduled, cargo, etc.);

4. specific third country operator;

5. specific aircraft identified by its individual registration mark.

Appendices B, C and D list the States of operator, aircraft types and operators inspected during the year 2007. They highlight the wide coverage of the EC SAFA programme and its non-discriminatory application.

The smooth operation of the programme can also be illustrated by the table below, which aggregates the information in the Appendices and provides an overview of activities.

Although under the ‘SAFA Directive’ the main obligation on EU Member States is the inspection of third-country aircraft visiting EU airports, aircraft from EU operators continue to be subject of inspections as well. The following table shows the results:

Inspections 8 594 inspections ….. Operator ….. on 984 different operators ….. State of operator ….. from 132 States ….. Aircraft type ….. operating 215 different (sub)types of aircraft

The table below meanwhile reflects the fact that the vast majority of all flights within EU Member States are carried out by EU operators and that in general, SAFA participating States were still using the broader criteria of the former ECAC SAFA programme.

4. MAIN RESULTS OF THE SAFA INSPECTIONS

4.1. Inspection findings in general

A first starting point regarding the findings, which are deviations from ICAO Standards, is the quantitative approach. This compares the total number of findings (F) to the total number of inspections (I) and the inspected items (II).

During the inspection, a checklist is used which comprises a total of 54 different inspection items. In the majority of cases, not all items are checked during an inspection because the time between the arrival of the aircraft and its departure is not sufficient to perform a complete inspection. Therefore, the relationship between the total number of findings and the total number of inspected items might give a better understanding rather than a ratio based merely on the number of inspections. The results are presented in the table below:

Period 1 January 2007–31 December 2007

Total inspections (I) 8 594 Total inspected items (II) 300 035 Total findings (F) 12 073 Average number of inspected items during an inspection 34,91 Findings/inspections (F/I) 1,4048 Findings/inspected items (F/II) 0,0402

4.2. Inspection findings and their categories

Not only the absolute number of inspection findings needs to be considered, but also their ‘severity’. To this end, three categories of findings have been defined. A ‘Category 1’ finding is called a minor finding; ‘Category 2’ is a significant finding and ‘Category 3’ a major finding. The terms ‘minor’, ‘significant’ and ‘major’ relate to the level of deviation from the ICAO Standard. The prime purpose of categorising the findings is to classify the compliance with a standard and the severity of non-compliance with this standard.

The inspections and the categories of findings are recorded in the database and the results are presented in the table below.

4.5. Inspection findings related to checklist items

Appendix F provides the results regarding each individual inspection item (III) which has been inspected. It indicates the number of times that a particular inspection item was checked, the number of findings and the ratio F/III. Appendix G provides the detailed breakdown of findings for the year 2007 by categories.

4.6. The top three significant and major inspection findings related to checklist items

The inspection checklist consists of four major parts. Part A concerns items to be inspected in the flight deck of the aircraft. Part B of the checklist concerns items to be checked in the (passenger) cabin, and mainly consists of safety equipment. Part C relates to the general technical condition of the aircraft which needs to be verified during a walk around check. Part D checklist items concern the cargo compartment of the aircraft and the cargo carried.

Any general findings not covered by Parts A, B, C or D can be administered under Part E (general) of the checklist.

When considering the findings established during a SAFA inspection, Category 2 (significant) and Category 3 (major) findings require the highest attention when it comes to the need for rectification. For each part of the checklist, the top 3 of Category 2 and 3 findings related to the number of inspections are given in the tables below Appendices D and E.

5. ACTION TAKEN AFTER RAMP INSPECTIONS

Based on the category, number and nature of the findings, several actions may be taken.

If the findings indicate that the safety of the aircraft and its occupants is impaired, corrective actions will be required. Normally the aircraft captain will be asked to address the serious deficiencies which are brought to his attention. In rare cases, where inspectors have reason to believe that the aircraft captain does not intend to take the necessary measures on the deficiencies reported to him, they will formally ground the aircraft. The formal act of grounding by the State of Inspection means that the aircraft is prohibited from resuming its flights until appropriate corrective measures are taken.

Another type of action is called ‘corrective actions before flight authorised’. Before the aircraft is allowed to resume its flight, corrective action is required to rectify any deficiencies which have been identified. In other cases, the aircraft may depart under operational restrictions. An example of such a restriction would be the case where there is a deficiency regarding passenger seats. Operation of the aircraft is possible under the condition that the deficient seats are not occupied by any passengers.

It is standard practice that the captain of the aircraft which has just been inspected is debriefed about the findings. In addition, Category 2 and Category 3 findings are communicated to the responsible Aviation Authority and the home base of the operator with the request to take appropriate action to prevent reoccurrence.

In order to achieve best the objectives of the EC SAFA Programme, close cooperation with the Civil Aviation Authorities of all those States whose operators and aircraft have been subject of SAFA inspections is imperative. As part of their responsibility regarding the safety oversight of their national operators according to the relevant international safety standards, these Civil Aviation Authorities are requested to ensure proper implementation of corrective actions in order to address the reported SAFA findings.

In some cases, when the findings on an aircraft are considered important, individual SAFA Participating States may decide to revoke the entry permit of that aircraft. This means that the particular aircraft is no longer allowed to land at airports or fly in the airspace of that State. Such a ban can be lifted if the operator of the aircraft proves that the problems have been properly corrected. Such entry permit repercussions can therefore be, and usually are, of a temporary character.

As regards such bans and their subsequent lifting, those SAFA Participating States which belong also to the European Community shall be acting in accordance with the provisions laid down in Regulation (EC) No 2111/2005 on the establishment of a Community list of air carriers subject to an operating ban within the Community.

APPENDIX F.1 Inspection items concerning the flight deck APPENDIX F.1.1 Flight preparation Flight preparation is an important part of the flight during which the crew is studying the flight relevant information: weather forecast, NOTAMs (Notice to Airmen) for en-route as well as for landing and alternate aerodromes and is preparing the Operational Flight Plan (OFP). The findings vary from minor findings (e.g. OFP not signed by the Pilot in Command) to findings having a significant (e.g. no or incorrect fuel monitoring) or major impact on safety (e.g. incomplete flight preparation, no or incomplete set of NOTAMs). In case of major (cat. 3) findings, SAFA inspectors imposed immediate corrective actions before the flight could commence. APPENDIX F.1.2 Radio navigation charts ICAO Annex 6 requires that aircraft shall carry current and suitable charts (en-route and approach) for the proposed flight(s). The majority of the findings concern out-dated charts and navigation databases not updated. When such major findings have been identified the aircraft were not allowed to depart until all the charts required for the flight have been updated. APPENDIX F.1.3 Minimum equipment list (MEL) The MEL specifies the circumstances under which an aircraft may be operated in spite of certain equipment being inoperative. The MEL is established by the aircraft operator and approved by the responsible State of Operator. The majority of the findings concerned the lack of evidence of approval of the MEL, the MEL not being carried onboard or being out of date. Also in many cases instead of the MEL the MMEL (Master MEL) is being used. The MMEL is established by the aircraft manufacturer as a baseline document for the operator to establish the MEL.

APPENDIX F.2 Inspection items concerning the passenger cabin APPENDIX F.2.1 Emergency exits, lighting and marking, torches The findings mainly concerned emergency exit lights which were not functioning properly, torches (flashlights) which were not available, in poor condition or not available in sufficient quantity and non-installation or inadequately functioning of floor proximity (emergency) escape path marking systems. These systems indicate the location of the emergency exits. They are important especially when there is a fire or smoke in the passenger cabin or when the normal cabin lights are not functioning. In case of major findings the aircraft were allowed to depart after the findings were eliminated or, depending on the circumstances, in accordance with an operational restriction (for example in case of an unserviceable emergency exit some passengers would have to be offloaded). APPENDIX F.2.2 General internal condition The cabin crew members have to be able to perform their normal and abnormal duties without hindrance. The findings mainly revealed the poor condition of the cabin, loose carpeting impeding the crew to perform their duties, improper stowed luggage, catering equipment not correctly secured. APPENDIX F.2.3 First aid kit/Emergency medical kit Aircraft engaged in international air traffic have to be equipped with adequate medical supplies appropriate to the number of passengers. Usually the medical supplies should comprise at least one first aid kit (FAK) and, in case of aeroplanes carrying more than 250 passengers, a medical kit. The findings identified under this inspections item revealed that sometimes the FAK was not at the indicated position, not properly marked or its contents have passed the expiration date.

APPENDIX F.3 Inspection items concerning general condition of aircraft APPENDIX F.3.1 General external condition Checking the general external condition means checking for apparent corrosion, cleanliness, presence of ice, snow, frost; legibility of markings, windshield delamination, damages, exterior lights etc. The majority of the findings concerned paint damage, illegible or missing markings, non-operative lighting, missing or loose screws. APPENDIX F.3.2 Leakage Under this inspection item SAFA inspectors check for leakages of the numerous aircraft systems: hydraulic, fuel, oil, and lavatory. Once such a finding is identified it is always assessed against the relevant standards of the aircraft manufacturer. If the leakage is exceeding the limits the aircraft is dispatched only after the leakage is rectified. APPENDIX F.3.3 Powerplant and pylon The engine, the engine housing, the pylon (attachment of the engine to the wing or aircraft structure) and the access panels in the engine housing and pylon are carefully inspected. Findings reported relate to missing rivets in engine housing and damage of acoustic panels in the engine intake area.
