HAI, AAMS and AMOA to host Industry-Government Forum

12-Jan-2015 Source: HAI

HAI, along with AAMS and AMOA, is hosting an Industry-Government Forum with high-level executives from the FAA Flight Standards and Aircraft Certification offices, as well as the NTSB. The forum will provide a venue for you, our members, and other industry leaders to share your views and concerns with the regulators, so you can hear their response firsthand on the following subjects:

  • Overcoming the obstacles to meeting aircraft equipment mandates for ADS-B and the new Helicopter Safety Rules (radio altimeters, helicopter terrain awareness and warning systems, and flight data recorders), including FAA actions to improve and facilitate this process
  • The new Helicopter Safety Rule requirements as they relate to helicopter air ambulance operations and FAA Part 135 on-demand and Part 91 operations 
  • The FAA’s actions to ensure consistency of interpretation across the regional offices and reduction in approval delays, both operational and airworthiness, at the field office level
  • A review of FAA Designee programs, such as designated engineering / airworthiness representatives, designated pilot examiners, and Organization Designation Authorization
  • A strategic review of Part 27 / 29 airworthiness requirements and methods of compliance
  • An NTSB update on its Top 10 Most Wanted list as it pertains to the helicopter industry
  • An FAA update on public aircraft operations 
  • An FAA status report on plans to safely integrate Unmanned Aerial Systems into the NAS, particularly in the lower altitudes that helicopters traditionally frequent

This forum will be held on Wed., Jan. 28, at the Hilton Old Town in Alexandria, Va. (In preparation for the forum, there will be a half-day preplanning meeting with industry attendees on Tue., Jan. 27).
