This workshop has been developed as the next stage on to our Safety Assessment of Aircraft Systems course. During this course, delegates will undertake a comprehensive System Safety Assessment on an actual aircraft.
Delegates will carry out safety analyses on a system installed on the unique Cranfield A1 aerobatic Aircraft using schematics and the actual aircraft as appropriate.
To facilitate online and distance learning, a web-based model of the Cranfield A1 aircraft has been created so this course has full flexibility of delivery location whilst maintaining its practical nature. Also, due to the course design and web-based teaching materials, this course can be suitable for those who reside in multiple time zones.
Delegates will work in groups to carry out the System Safety Assessment and will use various methods including Functional Hazard Assessment (FHA), Particular Risks (PA), Enhanced Fault Tree Analysis (EFTA), Failure Modes and Effect Analysis (FMEA), and Zonal Safety Analysis (ZSA).

Course structure
The course takes the form of a series of hands-on tutorials to describe the process and techniques involved, over 4.5 days. All delegates will receive a Certificate of Attendance at the end of the course.What you will learn
You will carry out safety analyses on a system installed on an aircraft using drawings, schematics and the actual aircraft as appropriate. These analyses will form an integral part of the workshop objective of producing a comprehensive System Safety Assessment. You will work in groups to carry out the System Safety Assessment and will use various methods including the following safety analysis techniques. At the end of the workshop each delegate will present the results of all team work.
Core content
- Functional Hazard Assessment (FHA): The FHA exercise will identify the critical failure conditions of the system. Each group will classify the failure conditions in accord with the categories defined in the Advisory Material to 1309 and identify the analysis techniques most appropriate to each.
- Particular Risks: The Particular Risks appropriate to the system and its installation will also be considered as appropriate.
- Enhanced Fault Tree Analysis (EFTA): The groups will carry out an Enhanced Fault Tree Analysis for the failure conditions identified by the FHA as being appropriate to this analytical technique.
- Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA): This exercise will use existing system drawings in order to perform FMEA on the aircraft system.
- Zonal Safety Analysis: Delegates will carry out a Zonal Safety Analysis on the aircraft zones in which the system is installed.
Who should attend
The course is designed for personnel from all parts of the aviation industry although it will be of particular value to those working for manufacturers, suppliers, operators and aviation authorities who are concerned with the design, reliability, safety or certification of aircraft systems.
