Goal: Have flight data available
for investigations
WHY ?
- Determine what happened and why to prevent recurrence
- Social responsibility - Prevent unnecessary
inspections thus reduce costs - Complimentary benefit for SAR
How?
- Recover the flight recorders - Establish accident site
Proposed performance Standard to establish accident site within 6 NM radius: - All aeroplanes MCTOM over 27 000 kg - 1 January 2020 - New C of A Proposed Recommendation: - Same as above except MCTOM over
5700 kg up to and including 27 000 kg
