  • Safa awareness training for an operator in Central Europe.
    Together with Wim Ovaa of C
    iconia-aviation.com , Bert van Elderen gave an awareness training at the homebase of an ACMI operator in Central Europe, the goal was to better understand the SAFA-system of EASA and be more equipped to handle and avoid SAFA findings.
    Very nice to work with a group dedicated people having two days in classroom and one day practical training at their own aircraft, good to see their knowledge and experience in their day to day work.
    Having ample discussions, sharing knowlegde and experience during this training was again a useful time.
