TAWS Enhancements

Statement of Work

Controlled Flight Into Terrain (CFIT) - accidents, where a properly functioning aircraft under the control of a fully qualified and

certificated crew is flown into terrain with no apparent awareness on the part of crew, could be substantially reduced or eliminated with the installation of GPS equipment and procedures for operating into areas

with limited navigation aids. GPS is critical to achieving the full potential AB/AC SEA001 (TAWS) in a limited ground navigation aid

environment.

7171


TAWS Enhancements (Cont’d)

Statement of WorkStatement of Work

This SE ensures that the maximal risk reduction for SE-6, SE-7 and SE-8 is achieved. Incorporation of ADS-B requires GPS equipped

airplanes and may offset total cost. Additionally, revisions to TAWS terrain databases, alerting algorithms, and optional features should be

incorporated into the TAWS equipment to ensure the accuracy and timeliness of the TAWS warnings and displays.

7272



Statement of Work

Existing airplanes used in commercial operations worldwidehave varying operational capabilities and limitations. Thesevarious

capabilities and limitations require the development and employment of a variety of strategies to improve the overall safety of approach

operations.

7373



Statement of Work

The operational capabilities of the worldwide fleet may be represented as a continuum; however, for the purpose of this safety enhancement

the airplanes have been categorized as “Classic,” “Standard” and “Advanced.”

Classic airplanes - airplanes typically equipped with electro-mechanical flight instruments, basic navigation capability (i.e., VOR, DME, ADF and possibly first generation Inertial Navigation System

(INS).

7474



Statement of Work

Standard airplanes - airplanes with multi-sensor RNAV Flight Management Systems (FMS), Electronic Flight Instruments and

Electronic Map Displays (the majority of airplanes produced during the past fifteen years).

procedures for updating TAWS terrain databases on all airplanes in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.

8383



Output 5

AIA, ATA, RAA, NACA, and Operators shall establish procedures to review and form a consensus on TAWS manufacturers’

recommended updates associated with the underlying TAWS alerting algorithms. Manufacturers, operators and regulators shall work together to incorporate those updates considered beneficial to

enhancing CFIT protection.

8484



Output 5 (Cont’d)

Recommendation

Operators, in conjunction with manufacturers will review, form a consensus, and implement updates to TAWS operating algorithms

that are considered beneficial to enhancing CFIT protection. Operator Associations will communicate to members the rationale for keeping their TAWS equipment updated to the latest applicable

configuration of operating algorithms respective to CFIT protection.

8585



Output 5 (Cont’d)

Recommendation

Manufacturers shall incorporate those TAWS alerting algorithms updates into production airplanes. AIA to encourage manufacturers

to develop service bulletins for upgrading existing TAWS on in-service airplanes. Manufacturers, Operators, and the FAA will

coordinate/work together to enable desired changes to be incorporated efficiently.

8686



Output 6 : Optional TAWS features

AIA, ATA, RAA, NACA, and Operators shall establish procedures to review available optional/selectable TAWS features not currently

used by the Airline and form a consensus on those features that would enhance CFIT protection for their operation. Manufacturers,

operators and regulators and shall work together to facilitate efficient incorporation of those desired optional/selectable TAWS

features.

8787



Output 6: Optional TAWS features (cont’d)

Recommendations

AIA, ATA, RAA, NACA, and Operators shall establish procedures to review available optional/selectable TAWS features (such as peaks and obstacles) if not currently active to form a consensus on those features that would enhance CFIT protection for their operation (obstacles exist

and are mapped). Manufacturers to develop service bulletins for the retrofit of existing airplanes where applicable.

8888



Output 6Output 6: Optional TAWS features (cont’d: Optional TAWS features (cont’d))

Recommendations

Airplane manufacturers will work to encourage customers to select such options on production airplanes and new type designs. Manufacturers, Operators, and the FAA will coordinate/work

together to enable efficient activation of those TAWS features that operators desire to enhance CFIT protection.

8989



SE-120 Risk evaluation

This SE (Outputs 2 & 3) installs GPS so that TAWS can utilize GPS position information.. GPS updating ensures that TAWS functions

reliably when operating into areas with limited ground base navigation aids and reduces the risk in those situations where a map

shift/navigation error may occur. The initial TAWS fatality risk reduction estimate was based on the assumption that the navigation

system would be reliable and accurate.

9090



SE-120 Risk evaluation

The risk reduction effectiveness of SE-6, SE-7 and SE-8 will be significantly reduced without the benefit of GPS. The lack of GPS will also adversely affect the safety benefits of the CAST plan in

regions other than the U.S. and Europe (e.g., Latin America CFIT is 67% of the total risk)

Note: Additionally, GPS position could enable improved TCAS effectiveness and advanced runway incursion systems.

New New CAST/JSSI Safety Interventions

SE – 78 Procedures for Reducing Cabin Injuries

9292


Statement of Work

Reduce turbulence injuries to flight attendants (FA’s) and passengers through improved situational awareness, turbulence encounter

management procedures (before, during and after encounter), and enhanced communication methodologies standardized across all air

operators.

9393


(Cont’d)

Issue

Data has consistently shown that most turbulence-related injuries occur to FA’s and passengers who are not properly secured. Over

the years, Government and industry efforts have addressed this issue in an attempt to reduce turbulence injuries to FA’s and passengers.

9494


Issue

These efforts have lacked overall coordination and consequently have not been effective, as indicated by the increasing trends in FA

injuries. Central to the organizational strategy will be the integration of these various efforts combined with current data to

develop comprehensive guidance.

9595


Output 1:: Develop industry consensus best practices for policies, procedures, terminology, training, and flight crew/cabin crew

communications to minimize cabin occupant exposure to turbulence, especially for FA’s. This should include, as a minimum, the

information contained in the attached Template.

9696


Output 2:: Document industry best practices in a new AC incorporating, at a minimum, the information on the attached template. State Guidance Material should also be reviewed to

determine if it is appropriate to add information from these best practices.

Output 3: : Revise procedures, develop airline training programs, and implement them in annual recurrent training for flight and cabin

crews.

9797


Recommendations

Development of AC based on Output 1 and 2.

Airlines -- Revise FA, pilot and dispatcher standard operating

procedures and training programs to incorporate the recommendations

and best practices contained in the AC.

Airlines -- Conduct the upgraded training during annual recurrent

training for FA's and pilots to implement the recommendations and

best practices contained in the AC.
