  1. Challenges posed to Operators by regulations with regard to safety A paper presented by Uganda Association of Air Operators Presented by Capt. David Rogers

  2. Overview of Regulatory Effects • Regulation has far reaching effects • Safety • Economic • Public perception • Guidance for Operators & Aviation Authorities

  3. The Goal of Appropriate Regulation and Oversight. • Provide the most efficient and safe Air Navigation System.

  4. Effects of Under-Regulation • Inadequate Guidance creates confusion • Inadequate Guidance creates Economic cost. • Inadequate Guidance creates a lack of Trust.

  5. Effects of Over Regulation • Excessive Regulation creates Economic Cost • Excessive Regulation creates an environment for Corruption • Excessive Regulation destroys trust

  6. Small Commercial Operations • For the Purposes of this presentation the term General Aviation (GA) includes private aviation from light sport aircraft up to large business jets and includes commercial operation of small aircraft (under 5.7 tons) • The demands of General Aviation require a different philosophy of regulation and oversight than that of large commercial Air Carriers.

  7. Regulatory Case Studies:Asia & the lack of Aviation • Many Asian countries are known for extremely tight regulations • Only recently has GA been “permitted” to grow • This correlates to the softening of excessive regulations and increased trust

  8. Regulatory Case Studies:Europe & the lack of GA • Europe has not fostered GA growth through extreme economic & bureaucratic restrictions. • GA in Europe has therefore been dismal for many years. • Most European pilots seek to obtain licenses outside of Europe due to extreme cost.

  9. Regulatory Case Studies:Corruption and ICAO Implementation Source: ICAO SGAS 2012 Final.

  10. Regulatory Case Studies:Corruption and ICAO Implementation Source: ICAO SGAS 2012 Final.

  11. Good Regulatory Practice • Competent and Qualified Inspectors • Relevant training and testing requirements • Open and Transparent Processes • Proper Legal Interpretations of Regulations • Ability to appeal a decision by the Authority to an independent tribunal • Stakeholder input at all stages of regulatory compliance and implementation. • Reasonable and transparent fee structure

  12. The Solution – A Just Culture • A Just Culture is “conditions (where), individuals are not blamed for ‘honest errors’, but are held accountable for willful violations and gross negligence” through an effective compliance and enforcement program. • A Just Culture must be a key element of any Regulator and Operator Relationship. • Open Communication is another key factor. • Use the experience of the Operators and Industry to assist in creating and operating an improved regulatory regime.

  13. UAAO is here to Help • Hundreds of Thousands of hours of experience operating in East Africa • Large pool of qualified pilots, engineers, and managers with vast local and international Experience • Long term commitment to the survival and safe growth of the industry • Provide an economic perspective • Operators are willing to work side by side with the Authority (create testing standards, self regulation, examination & audit professionals) • Many Operators operate to a higher level than minimum regulatory standards and constantly seek to improve Quality and Safety.
