Series Of Safety Training And Education Programs To Be Hosted
Over Next Five Months
A new series of
aviation seminars and workshops will be held across Australia by
the Civil Aviation Safety Authority during 2005.
The safety training and education program has been released for
the first half of 2005, with events to be held in Albury, Cairns,
Mt Gambier and Tamworth between February and June. Key aviation
issues important to pilots, engineers and airline managers will be
examined in detail by a range of experts.
Seminars for pilots cover topics such as operations in and
around controlled airspace, local weather, aircraft icing, fatigue,
issues for chief pilots and improving flying training. Engineers
can brush up on their knowledge of airworthiness directives,
permissible unserviceabilities, systems of certification,
delegations and new regulations.
The program of seminars
and workshops is open to everyone involved in Australian aviation,
with people encouraged to choose the topics that will give them the
most value. The seminars and workshops are a key part of
CASA’s commitment to helping to improve air safety in all
parts of Australian aviation.
CASA has been consulting with the aviation industry on both the
topics being covered by the training and the education program and
the content of individual seminars and workshops. A positive
response to last years seminars has resulted in the continuation of
existing flying instructor seminars, which are being offered as one
or two day intensive courses.
These will cover issues such as competency based training, legal
aspects of training and the implementation of new regulations. The
first seminars begin in Albury on Monday 14 February.
