SAFA Ramp InspectionsGuidance material1 IntroductionSAFA inspections are part of a European Union safety programme and shall be executed in aharmonised and standardised way in all EU Member States, in Iceland, Norway, andSwitzerland, and in all States with which EASA signed a working arrangement on SAFA. Forthis reason the Annex to the Commission Directive 2008/49/EC calls for guidance material togive clear guidance and instructions to the inspectors performing SAFA ramp inspections.Inspectors must have received training in their relevant field of expertise before performingany SAFA inspections; details can be found in the EASA Guidance Material on the Qualificationof Inspectors.This procedure contains guidance material as required by the mentioned Annex as well asguidance material in addition to those required. The following table is a cross referencebetween the paragraphs of the Annex and the chapters of this procedure.Paragraph of the Annex to CD 2008/49/EC Ramp inspection procedure chapter1.1 3.11.2 No guidance material1.3 3.1h, 3.31.4 3.1f2 Transposed in “Guidance material onqualification of inspectors” published 29September 20083 3.44.1 3.1h, 3.34.2 3.3, Appendix 24.3 Appendix 14.4 No guidance material5 5, Appendix 16.1 6.1.16.2 6.1, 6.26.3 6.1.16.4 6.1.2, 6.2.1, 6.36.5 6.1.3, 6.2.21.1 DefinitionsState of oversightAMMATLB,TLB,Tech LogCDLCMMMELN/APDF or PDFsPOIEither the State of Operator, State ofRegistration or State of Licensing (whicheveris applicable) responsible for the oversight inthat area (possibly transferred by an Article83bis agreement)Aircraft Maintenance ManualAircraft Technical Log Book, sometimes alsoindicated as TLB or short the aircraft’s TechLogConfiguration Deviation ListComponent Maintenance ManualMinimum Equipment ListNot availablePre-Described FindingsProof of InspectionSAFA Coordination Section Page 4 of 217© European Aviation Safety Agency, 2012 V 2.0

Such information shall include important safetyinformation 1 as referred to in Article 3(a), collected through several means and shall be keptusing the Standard Report form.The Standard Reports shall be exchanged with the Commission and the Member States asrequired by Article 5 of the SAFA Directive. In addition, those reports shall, in accordance witharticle 3.2 of Regulation (EC) No 768/2006, be communicated to the Agency. The StandardReports are one of the sources of information to be taken into account when identifying whichaircraft shall be subject to a ramp inspection.Although Article 3 of the SAFA directive also requires that follow-up information as describedunder (b) and (c) of that Article shall be kept as Standard Reports, it is considered to becompliant if such information is recorded in the concerned Ramp Inspection Report and themonthly report on the status of follow-up actions (as referred to in Paragraph 6.4 of the Annexto Directive 2008/49/EC).1.2.2 Exchanging Standard ReportsLike Ramp Inspection Reports, Standard Reports can be entered into the centralised SAFADatabase. By doing so, Members States are meeting the requirement of both using theStandard Report format and exchanging it with the other stakeholders. Any useful informationlike documents, pictures, etc. can also be stored in the database and linked to the StandardReport.1.2.3 Disidentification of the sourceImportant safety information might be received from passengers or whistleblowers. Althoughnot specifically addressed by Article 6.4 of the SAFA directive, it is self-explanatory thatinformation in the Standard Report should be disidentified to such extent that the sourcecannot be identified.1 Examples of important safety related information could be, but not limited to, ATC reports on levelbusts,communication failure or difficulties, and abnormal take-off lengths, information received frommaintenance organisations concerning lack of AD compliance or maintenance work performed incorrectly,reports from the general public/whistleblowers concerning perceived unsafe situations, reports from pilotson incorrect use of radio-telephony phraseology, reports from airport personnel on observed unsafepractices, factual information concerning accidents and incidents which occurred in Member States’airspace.SAFA Coordination Section Page 5 of 217© European Aviation Safety Agency, 2012 V 2.0
