analysing ways and means to improve avia¬tion safety, there are many other initiatives under way to improve the overall safety of aircraft, crews and passengers, and even people on the ground. For example, EASA has initiated three groups of experts — one for helicopters, one for airlines and one for
General Aviation — each charged with find¬ing additional means of gathering better data on all accidents and incidents, and analysing the data to identify basic causes and lessons to be learned.
Great efforts are being made to develop and share 'best practices' across the sectors in order to avoid all possible situations in which an accident could happen. This basic information should provide food for thought for all who pilot an aircraft, be it professionally or for leisure. As the old adage goes: "There are old pilots and bold pilots but there are no old, bold pilots."

IS-BA0: code of
best practices
Since its launch in 2002, the International Standard for Business Aircraft 0perations has attracted an enthusiastic following. Julian Moxon reports
" IS-BA0 raises the
safety bar on
current regulatory
requirements" The rapidly increasing number of business aircraft operators signing up for the International Standard for Business Aircraft 0perations (IS-BA0)
is welcome news for EUR0C0NTR0L, for which any move towards harmonisation of operating standards is good news. The Business Aviation community has really taken the new IS-BA0 to heart, with more than 140 operators already registered since the standard was formally launched at the 2002 European Business Aviation Conference and Exhibition.
The new standard is based on the IS0 9000 industry standard, and has been developed as a "professional safety code of practice for flight departments world¬wide, by the industry, for the benefit of the industry". It is a response to a known need to develop a code of best practices which would build upon the impressive safety record of Business Aviation and provide guidelines for operators to help them maintain the highest operating standards at an international level.
EUR0C0NTR0L has welcomed its arrival. "The Business Aviation sector is very disunited in terms of the number of different types of aircraft it operates, which can make life difficult when new
standards such as Reduced Vertical Sepa¬ration Minima are introduced," says Alex Hendriks, EUR0C0NTR0L CND Deputy Director for Network Development. "We are very glad to see the industry taking a more coherent approach to safety operat¬ing standards."
"IS-BA0 raises the safety bar on current regulatory requirements and provides a baseline for harmonisation of operating practices to benefit operators worldwide," says Katherine Perfetti, Standards Man¬ager at the Montreal-based International Business Aviation Council, which created the IS-BA0. "It helps them achieve higher
standards all round, particularly with regard to developing their safety manage¬ment systems."
From an Air Traffic Management point of view, Perfetti says IS-BA0 helps point Business Aviation flight departments and pilots to the performance standards they should expect when flying into any inter¬national airspace. "Two pages of IS-BA0 are devoted to international airspace. They contain advice on compliance with things like Required Navigation Performance, RVSM and Minimum Navigation Perfor¬mance Specifications. It helps operators to
develop their own solutions to compliance. It also provides hyperlinks to useful sites on other relevant subjects."
