Step 1 – Post a response to the following on the discussion board. If appropriate, include personal experience in your response.
You will be required to prepare a PowerPoint presentation directed to an aviation organization of your choosing, describing the type of Safety Management System that you would recommend to that organization to improve their safety culture. The objective of this assignment, which will have your final presentation due at the end of the course, is to demonstrate your knowledge and understanding of what an SMS is, and how an SMS works, in the context of supporting an aviation organization of your choice. That organization can be any aviation related organization from a major air carrier to a small Mom & Pop FBO, crop-dusting outfit, or even a Part 141 pilot training school! The key is to stick to the core concepts of what an SMS is and how an SMS works in the context of supporting your aviation organization. Don’t get too far into the weeds as far as detailed safety risks or hazards are concerned, focus on the SMS process!
QUESTION: Considering the history of aviation accidents, what key points should be included in a well-designed SMS implementation PowerPoint presentation?
