of the signa<strong>to</strong>ry groups) The concept is <strong>to</strong> keep standard close <strong>to</strong><br />
what it is—AMC/ guidance <strong>to</strong> reflect helicopter operations. There<br />
may be some standards specific <strong>to</strong> airplanes or <strong>to</strong> helicopters.<br />
Work has already started. Bob Scheffield chair and Stan Rose,<br />
Vice-Chair have started work on establishing work group. Ray<br />
Rohr provided background briefing/ training. The time line is still<br />
under development, but it is not expected that IS-BAO portion will<br />
take that long. The other part is for the helicopter associations <strong>to</strong><br />
develop mission specific standards- that will be their <strong>to</strong>tal<br />
responsibility and will not be a function of this Standards Board. A<br />
couple of helicopter association persons will join this board.<br />
Timeline: spring 2011<br />
Task from first teleconference- develop timeline over next 30 days,<br />
identify what is missing, what needs <strong>to</strong> be worked. The HAI trade<br />
show is in March and we would like something <strong>to</strong> present by that<br />
date.<br />
There was additional discussion on beta testing the product.<br />
Audi<strong>to</strong>rs: helicopter associations will sanction audi<strong>to</strong>rs with<br />
helicopter experience—details <strong>to</strong> be developed. Helicopter<br />
associations will be involved in the audit review process/<br />
moni<strong>to</strong>ring.<br />
HAI stated they are pleased <strong>to</strong> be part of the process. They<br />
provided an overview of the growth potential and of the work with<br />
the <strong>International</strong> Helicopter Safety Team. They are pleased <strong>to</strong><br />
partner with the IS-BAO SMS program.<br />
ICAO annex date: 18 Nov 2010 effective date- A limited number of<br />
States have implemented Section 3<br />
Bermuda-<br />
Cayman<br />
Canada<br />
Singapore and Hong Kong in process—writing rules almost <strong>to</strong><br />
exact words of annex<br />
EASA- revised NPA will be issued shortly and will know wording<br />
but essentially are adhering <strong>to</strong> Section 3, Annex 6 part II but with<br />
different applicability.<br />
FAA- There was discussion over asking IBAC support in delaying<br />
FAA SMS rulemaking- we disagreed as this would be contrary <strong>to</strong><br />
our efforts <strong>to</strong> implement IS-BAO and SMS.<br />
Debated this over past years- at what point do we convert from<br />
hard copy revision <strong>to</strong> electronic process-we reached a decision<br />
this year because of packaging/ shipping 1500 copies of revision<br />
has become difficult. Problem is more of keeping addresses/<br />
contacts current—many returned as undeliverable—became<br />
administrative burden. We will move <strong>to</strong> an all electronic revision for<br />
201<strong>1.</strong> However, a provision <strong>to</strong> provide hard copy for subscription<br />
fee will be made available.<br />
Each holder of IS-BAO will have a password <strong>to</strong> website and can<br />
access website Jan 1- can go through password <strong>to</strong> get updated<br />
revision. If they lose their password, process will allow a new<br />
password. We are now going through list of names of IS-BAO<br />
holders/ addresses/ e:mails <strong>to</strong> update the mailing list.<br />
Audi<strong>to</strong>rs will need <strong>to</strong> be diligent <strong>to</strong> ensure opera<strong>to</strong>rs have current<br />
revision.<br />
Revisions will continue <strong>to</strong> be identified the same as currently<br />
available on the CD (one version with track changes plus change<br />
table, etc)
