Aim & Objectives of LessonAim – To welcome learners to their study programme – BTEC Level 2 Certificate in Aviation Operations on the GroundObjectives:• Learners must: Have an understanding of what the unit
involves and what you will be assessed on Be able to identify how UK airports are different• Learners should: Accurately code and decode airport codes• Learners could: Explain the risk to potential airside and aircraft
hazards
Introduction to airports
Let’s discuss your travelling experiences
UK airportsAirports within the UK can be defined by various factors:• Airport passenger numbers per year• Location of the airport• Destinations of flights offered by the airport e.g. long-haul, short-haul, domestic
Task: Discuss these topics and new
aviation terminology
Activity – Major or Regional?
Paired activity: In pairs discuss whether the following airports are major UK airports or smaller, regional airports? Why?
London Heathrow / East Midlands / Liverpool John Lennon/ Manchester / London Gatwick / Newcastle International /
Bristol / Edinburgh / Birmingham / Norwich International / Blackpool International / London Luton / London Stansted /
Leeds Bradford/ Glasgow

Why?
Types of UK airportsMajor international airports:These provide a wide range of international services (both short-haul and usually long-haul ) and a significant range of charter and domestic services. For example: London Heathrow
Types of UK airportsRegional airportsThese provide a network of short-haul scheduled international services, and sometimes a small number of long-haul services, as well as a significant number of charter and domestic services. For example – Bristol International Airport
Types of UK airportsLocal airportsThese operate some domestic services and sometimes a small number of short-haul services, as well as charter services and general aviation. For example Norwich International

UNIT 1: HEALTH AND SAFETY WITHIN AVIATION
AIM & OBJECTIVES OF LESSON
Aim – To introduce the unit and methods of assessmentObjectives:Learners must: Know the difference between a hazard and risk and to identify potential hazard
Learners should: Be able to explain risks to staff and passenger
Learners could: Examine how risks and hazards can be prevented and explain how to report safety breaches
ASSIGNMENTS Two
assignments – NO merit or
distinction criteria
Assessment evidence is specific so make sure you cover EVERYTHING you have been ask
to include P .M .D
LEARNING AIMSFor Unit 1: Health and Safety within Aviation you will:1.Know how to prevent and minimise
risks and hazards airside – Assignment Task 1 – 1.1 – 1.8
2.Understand how to contribute to airport safety - Assignment Task 2 – 2.1 – 2.5
2 learning aims over 2 assignment
tasks
October - December
STUDENT RESEARCH ACTIVITY
Find news articles on health and
safety incidents. Be prepared to
feedback to the rest of the group.

RISKS & HAZARDS: WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
A RISK is the likelihood, high or low, that somebody could be harmed by the hazard, together with an indication of how serious the harm could be
A HAZARD is anything that can cause harm…
For example, a
badly-driven
vehicle is a hazard
which presents a
risk of collision to
staff and passengers
WHERE CAN ACCIDENTS HAPPEN?
Restricted zones:1.Landside – terminal building2.Airside – out on ramp3.Aircraft There will be some crossover because at an airport, all a/c hazards are airside although we are going to concentrate solely on hazards and risks caused by a/c and caused by other factors (vehicles, manual handing…) http://www.youtube.

PAIRED ACTIVITY – AIRSIDE FLOWCHART DIAGRAM
In pairs, write the hazards we have covered at the top of your piece of paper. Then discuss what the risks could be
and annotate to create a flowchart.

AIRCRAFT HAZARDSJet engines

FOREIGN OBJECT DEBRIS
Foreign object debris (FOD) otherwise known as ‘litter’ such as drinks bottle or a plastic bag can be potentially very dangerous if ingested by a jet engine.

landing were to come off would

AIRCRAFT HAZARDSTaxiing

AIRCRAFT HAZARDSPush-back
Risk – staff, passengers

PREVENTION AND MINIMISATION
Initial training – at Swissport this is a two week programme
Refresher training - keep training records up to date – once a year attend fire safety and dangerous goods training – so procedures are refreshed
Assessments – to test knowledge Licensing – pass a Airport Operators Association
Airside Driving test Inspections – e.g Swissport, Airport Authority or
regulatory body DfT or CAA Complete risk assessments Reporting Supervision – to observe staff are using
equipment correctly
How can we prevent
incidents involving
airside and aircraft
hazards?

AIM & OBJECTIVES OF LESSON
Aim – To prepare learners for assignment task 1Objectives:Learners must: Understand who to report safety breaches to
Identify key airside surface markingsLearners should: Be able to explain how to report to certain safety breaches
Learners could: Be able to differentiate between a range of situations
REPORTING SAFETY BREACHES
Safety breach situations may require immediate attention, routine situations (DfT) or require urgent response.
Persons to report to when a breach of safety has been identified: Company supervisorAirport Authority (BHX) – for airfield safety and security issues Air Traffic Control (ATC) - Flight safety concerns
Aircraft engineer Control authorities – police, fire, ambulance, Border Agency
REPORTING SAFETY BREACHES
Reporting procedures Written report – to follow-up a verbal report and routine situations (DfT)
Photograph - for evidenceFollow up by learning from potential accidentsVerbal communication – immediate situationControl authorities for urgent situations
How?
POTENTIAL SAFETY BREACHES
1. Speeding airside2. Ramp agent not using
equipment correctly3. Unauthorised person
on board an aircraft4. Passenger smoking
whilst boarding/de-boarding
In pairs, discuss and write down how you
would respond to these breaches and who
needs to be informed? Think about whether the breach needs an
immediate response or urgent response.

AIRSIDE SURFACE MARKINGS
Apron - A defined area provided for the stationing of aircraft for the boarding and de-boarding of passengers, the loading and unloading of cargo, fuelling, and for parking.
Taxiway –A defined path established for the taxying of aircraft to an aircraft stand
Runway - A defined rectangular area prepared for the landing and take-off run of aircraft along its length.
AIRSIDE SURFACE MARKINGS
RoadsPainted signs Lights – to guide pilots onto stand and runway lightsPedestrian walkways
