SUBJECT:
Flight Risk Assessment Tool
PURPOSE:
This InFO describes the proactive identification of possible hazards and the use of risk management tools to mitigate risks as aspects of a Safety Management System (SMS). These tools will provide ways for air operators to determine which flights have more risk and allow operators to intervene and reduce risk when possible. Risk assessment tools are only part of an SMS and should not be considered the whole system.
An InFO contains valuable information for operators that should help them meet certain administrative, regulatory, or operational requirements with relatively low urgency or impact on safety.
