ACTIVITY REPORT NATIONAL OVERSIGHT AUTHORITY 2015 MINISTÈRE DE L'ENVIRONNEMENT, DE L’ÉNERGIE ET DE LA MER www.developpement-durable.gouv.fr DSAC ACTIVITY REPORT 2015 FOREWORD CONTENTS ORGANISATION CHART ................................................................. 4 2015 was a year for DSAC of contrasting safety events , depending on the sector of activity, of signifi cant adaptation objectives for the industry which it was able to meet and internal managerial HIGHLIGHTS ..................................................................................... 6 objectives that it had to deal with. ASSESSING and IMPROVING SAFETY ....................................... 8 Contrasting events fi rst of all. 2015 was one of the safest ever years in modern air transport history, since there were only 4 air transport RESOURCES MANAGEMENT ...................................................... 10 accidents worldwide, and none for the French fl eet. But we were hit particularly hard by one of them: the aeroplane belonging to the low-cost airline Germanwings, a subsidiary of Lufthansa, which crashed into the EUROPE and SAFETY REGULATIONS ........................................ 12 French Alps with 150 people on board, on 24th March 2015. The investigation showed that the co-pilot, who had been suffering from psychological problems, had caused the crash intentionally by fl ying the plane into the ground. AIRCREWS ..................................................................................... 16 DSAC is particularly involved in studying the regulatory changes which are under way, in particular for strengthening medical and psychological checks for pilots. AIRWORTHINESS and AIR OPERATIONS ................................. 20 Light aviation also had a diffi cult year, with a signifi cant increase in microlight accidents, which led us to work with the microlight federation to improve instructor training. AIRPORTS and AIR NAVIGATION .............................................. 24 2015 was also marked by the terrorist attacks in Paris: the aviation sector already had a signifi cant battery of measures to protect against threats and DSAC has played its role in strengthening checks to raise the operator security level even higher. SECURITY ....................................................................................... 28 Followed by adaptation objectives. ENVIRONMENT and SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT ............. 30 Drawing all the consequences from the implementation of European regulations, in particular by simplifying our national regulations, DSAC/IR ......................................................................................... 32 contributing to European work on the new approach for light aviation, which from 2016 will see a framework which is much more adapted to this activity and fi nally preparing for the future by making an active contribution to the drafting of the future basic regulation on aviation safety in Europe were the areas where DSAC was involved on a regulatory level. We can also mention the GLOSSARY ..................................................................................... 52 launch of the conversion of French airport certifi cation to European certifi cation, which will last until the end of 2017. At the same time, major activity was also seen with UAVs, both for the updating of existing regulations using the experience of the last 4 years of strong growth in the activity, and for the preparation of future requirements for remote piloting, or work with other State departments to protect against illegal use. Finally, the promotion of aviation safety remains a major pillar in our actions. 2015 saw the implementation of the new regulations (EU) 376/2014 on the reporting, analysis and follow-up of occurrences in civil aviation, which now also apply to general aviation. A vast number of educational activities were provided to operators to make them aware of the advantages and obligations in these regulations. And fi nally managerial objectives. 2015 was the year of our commitment to the ”DSAC 2020” strategic approach and began with an examination of oversight activities and skills mobilisation. Sharing the vision of our future environment, understanding the expectations of various stakeholders, defi ning and generating understanding of the directions in which we are heading in order to prepare ourselves as best as possible; these are the activities in which DSAC managers and staff were involved this year. Over and beyond this ”news”, we have worked throughout 2015 across the full range of our core activities to increase our know-how and our overall performance. I would like to thank each and every one of my colleagues for their commitment to DSAC’s activities to constantly improve safety and work on behalf of users and the general interest and for all the work you do on a daily basis, whether in the regions or at central level. This work you do rarely grabs the headlines and we often don’t see just how important your work is until a problem happens.
