AP's Jarrod Bell recently spent some time travelling throughout remote Western Australia conducting annual technical inspections (ATIs) at certified aerodromes across the central-Pilbara region.
The central-Pilbara region of WA is known for its ancient landscapes, rich resource deposits and is home to one of the world's largest collections of Aboriginal engraved rock art.
Regulated airports require an ongoing program of compliance inspections to ensure that their facilities and equipment, management arrangements and procedures meet applicable regulations and standards.
AP's scope for ATIs generally includes:
- Instrument survey of approach, take-off and transitional surfaces
- Review of applicable surfaces associated with the OLS
- Review of aerodrome operator’s monitoring of instrument approach procedure critical obstacles
- Inspection and assessment of movement area pavements, drainage and associated strips
- Inspection and assessment of visual aids on the aerodrome
- Inspection of equipment or facilities at the aerodrome used for wildlife hazard management and aerodrome emergencies
- Review of currency and accuracy of published information
- Review of aerodrome operating procedures specified in the aerodrome manual and supporting documents
- Confirm safety management system or risk management plan (as applicable) is up to date and functioning as documented
- Confirm appointed safety personnel have been appropriately trained and assessed in accordance with Part 139 MOS.
