SAFA On-the-Job Training (OTJ) (in Cooperation with an ECAC Member State Aviation Authority)

Course content:

During this course, junior SAFA inspectors join SAFA senior Inspectors during the performance of actual SAFA ramp checks. They will observe the inspections of the flight deck, safety equipment in the aircraft cabin, checks of the cargo compartment and walk-around verification of the aircraft technical condition. Due to the nature of this OJT, participation is restricted to a limited number of junior SAFA inspectors. This OJT comprises of two phases:

Phase 1 - observation phase: during this phase the trainees will accompany and observe the SGI Senior Inspectors when performing a series of 6 ramp inspections (including the preparation of the inspection and post-inspection activities: reporting, follow-up).

Phase 2 - supervision phase: during this phase the trainees will gradually start to perform a total of 6 ramp inspections, under the supervision and guidance of the SGI Senior Inspector.
