Sofema Online (SOL) www.sofemaonline.com considers the key aspects related to assessing the effectiveness of Fatigue System Training.

Introduction

The aim is to establish a culture where fatigue management is a natural part of daily operations. Training effectiveness is evident through safer work practices and a proactive approach to managing fatigue risks.

One key aspect of FRMS is training personnel to identify, manage, and mitigate fatigue risks. However, simply conducting training sessions is not enough, it is essential to measure the effectiveness of these training initiatives to ensure they genuinely enhance safety and comply with regulations.

Sofema Online (SOL), www.sofemaonline.com, considers the use of chemicals, particularly when approaching shelf life expiry or when it expires.

Introduction

Under EASA Part 145 regulations, using chemicals beyond their expiry date is not generally permitted.

Here are some key points regarding the storage and usage of chemicals, including Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) penetrant chemicals, in a maintenance organisation approved under EASA Part 145:

• • Compliance with Manufacturer's Recommendations: The chemical manufacturer provides a specific product shelf life based on stability and effectiveness data.

 - Usage beyond this date may compromise the chemical's performance and safety.

• • Regulatory Requirements: EASA Part 145 mandates that all materials and products used must be within their specified shelf life unless an extension is authorized by the manufacturer.

Introduction

Sofema has been providing for several years support to help organisation achieve a high level of “In Company” - related to the “self management” of EASA 145 Initial & Recurrent Training.

FTS owes its origins to the analysis following the inflight break up of Flight TWA 800 in July 1996. The origins of EWIS in fact go back a lot further but did not take on a formal identity until Aug 1996 when a White House Commission under the directorship of vice president Al gore was set up.
