Title:
From Permission Slip to Decision Tool Making Your FRAT Earn Its Keep
Topic:
Flight Risk Assesment Tool
Speaker(s):
Brian Jorgenson , Rich Farley, Adam Stockland
Brief Description:
Too many Flight Risk Assessment Tools get filled out, signed and forgotten: a box-ticking permission slip instead of a real go/no-go conversation. Timberline Helicopters flipped that script. VAI Board Chair Brian Jorgenson opens with the philosophy behind the change, then Director of Safety Rich Farley and Director of Operations Adam Stockland walk through how their system works in the field, the software behind it, and what the data has taught them about real risk on heavy-lift and utility missions. Bring your questions and leave with ideas to turn your FRAT into a tool crews actually trust.
