They are independent of, separate from and without prejudice to any judicial or administrative proceedings to apportion blame or liability. The sole objective of this safety investigation and Final Report is the prevention of accidents and incidents.

  • Guidelines for the Release of Racing Pigeons for the Purpose of Ensuring Safety of Aircraft and Passengers and Crew Travelling Therein
    GUIDELINES FOR THE RELEASE OF Issued by the Safety Regulation Division of the RACING PIGEONS Irish Aviation Authority Introduction The Safety Regulation Division of the Irish Aviation Authority has issued the following guidelines for the release of racing pigeons for the purpose of ensuring safety of aircraft and passengers and crew travelling therein. The guidelines are available to all Racing Pigeon Clubs and all owners of racing pigeons. Why are racing pigeons a hazard for aircraft? Racing pigeons are a predictable hazard to both civil and military aviation. There are four main reasons why they are hazardous to aircraft: (1) Racing pigeons are heavy birds - weighing at least 450g i.e. almost half a kilo; (2) Racing pigeons fly in flocks, which, in the case of pigeon races may involve 30,000 birds. Flocks cause multiple bird strikes i.e. where several or many birds strike an aircraft. This in turn increases the risk of a bird or birds entering the jet engine. Most commercial jets (e.g. Boeing 737, 777, Airbus A320, A330) have two very large diameter engine intakes, so the risk of birds entering both engines increases when a flock strikes the aircraft; (3) Racing pigeons travel at speeds of up to 70 mph, which means that there may be insufficient time for pilots and or birds to take evasive action thus increasing the risk of collision; (4) Racing pigeons fly at low altitudes of the order of 300ft and therefore if a collision occurs it happens as the aircraft is at a critical phase of flight having either just taken off or when it is about to land; In addition, racing pigeons do not usually respond to conventional bird control measures at airports and as they are wild animals, their behavior is predictable only to a limited extent.

  • AAIU Report No.:2002/007 AAIU File No.: 2001/0072 Published: 12 July 2002
    Accident involving turbulence and Aer Arann ATR-42-300 on descent to Donegal International Airport, Ireland, on December 2, 2001. Micro-summary: On descent, this ATR-42 encountered turbulence, injuring several people. Event Date: 2001-12-02 at 1300 UTC Investigative Body: Air Accident Investigation Unit (AAIU), Ireland Investigative Body's Web Site: http://www.aaiu.ie/ Cautions: 1. Accident reports can be and sometimes are revised. Be sure to consult the investigative agency for the latest version before basing anything significant on content (e.g., thesis, research, etc). 2. Readers are advised that each report is a glimpse of events at specific points in time. While broad themes permeate the causal events leading up to crashes, and we can learn from those, the specific regulatory and technological environments can and do change. Your company's flight operations manual is the final authority as to the safe operation of your aircraft! 3. Reports may or may not represent reality. Many many non-scientific factors go into an investigation, including the magnitude of the event, the experience of the investigator, the political climate, relationship with the regulatory authority, technological and recovery capabilities, etc. It is recommended that the reader review all reports analytically. Even a "bad" report can be a very useful launching point for learning. 4. Contact us before reproducing or redistributing a report from this anthology. Individual countries have very differing views on copyright! We can advise you on the steps to follow.

Introduction The Western Development Commission (WDC) welcomes this opportunity to make a submission to the Issues Paper for Consultation on An Integrated Irish Aviation Policy issued by the Department of Transport, Tourism & Sport, February 2013. The WDC is a statutory body established by government to promote, foster and encourage economic and social development in the Western Region 1. It operates under the aegis of the DECLG 2. The WDC works in co-operation with national, regional and local bodies involved in western development to ensure that the Western Region maximises its full development potential. It does this by: • analysing economic and social trends and making policy recommendations; • promoting the Western Region through the LookWest.ie and RE:CONNECT campaigns; • supporting the rural economy through facilitating strategic initiatives (e.g. renewable energy, creative economy); and • providing risk capital to businesses through the WDC Investment Fund 3. One of the functions of the WDC is regional policy analysis. The WDC seeks to ensure that government policy reflects the needs and maximises the potential of the Western Region in such areas as infrastructure, natural resources, enterprise and regional and rural development. It also tracks the implementation of policies and recommends adjustments as appropriate. It is in this context that the WDC welcomes the publication of the Issues Paper for Consultation on An Integrated Irish Aviation Policy and the opportunity to submit its insights into the policy formulation process.
