Today’s Objectives
• Discuss the case for change in helicopter safety
• Provide an overview of how the IHST is developing
safety improvements from accidents analyses
• Provide IHST program status of both
domestically and internationally
• Present top level analysis findings from the US
fleet accident data set.
• Discuss the challenges of reaching small operators

IHST is following a proven model
IHST (CAST)
Charters Activity
JHSAT (JSAT)
Analyzes Data
Proposes most
effective interventions
JHSIT (JSIT)
Assesses feasibility of
interventions
works implementation
Continued data analysis,
measure intervention

AvWeek Briefing – Apr 2009

This is a worldwide effort
All IHST participants use a process adapted from CAST.
Key attributes:
All recommendations directly rooted in accident data.
Regional ownership - Data is owned and analyzed by those
most familiar with it. Safety recommendations are
implemented by teams most familiar with local needs and
challenges.
JHSAT and JHSIT lead teams responsible for training/coaching
regional teams, measuring the results of the safety
recommendations and implementation effectiveness.

Implementing Change – Remaining Process Driven
Implementation actions are driven by accident data and are
based on the recommendations of the JHSAT team
Actions are prioritized for potential impact
Each action is assessed for safety impact and ROI
A “Safety Enhancement” (SE) plan is established for each action
The Excom reviews and if appropriate, approves each SE
Approved SEs are further augmented by a “Detailed
Implementation Plan” (DIP)
SE/DIP effectiveness metrics used to ensure actions
working as intended

Conclusions:
We have a problem – Unanimity in the worldwide helicopter
community; long term accident trends are unacceptable.
We know how to fix it – Using a data driven, stakeholder
consensus process we’ve identified the drivers behind
helicopter accidents. Implementation of SMS, training,
information and maintenance enhancements are the
top priority targets. Effectiveness measures will be used.
We can’t do it alone – Any entity with accident data willing to
use the IHST analysis and implementation process is a viable
candidate to join this worldwide initiative.
