Basic Training for Aerodrome Inspectors
Aerodrome (ADR) Inspectors working on behalf of Civil Aviation Authorities (CAA, NAA, CA) are required to be trained and qualified for their duties, and demonstrate their competence.
Their oversight task is complex, as it demands in-depth knowledge of the technical and organisation requirements applicable to aerodromes: their management and operations.
The EU Implementing Rules (IR’s) and EASA AMC, GM and CS - considered as the best practices worldwide - reorganise ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices, and introduce well defined skill and knowledge requirements for aerodrome inspectors.
Structured upon EASA requirements, this 3-day course will provide attendees with the knowledge baseline requirement for oversight inspectors. This includes the structure of aerodrome regulations, the requirements for aerodrome design and maintenance, operations, management systems, safety assessments, certification and manuals.
In particular, the course will focus on how aerodrome inspectors analyse and assess applications made by aerodrome operators for managing deviations & differences (ELOS, SC, DAAD, AltMoC), and changes: and, how to respond to those applications. Emphasis will be placed on examples and practical discussions that the attendees consider most relevant.
