CAA Safety Evenings 2012
As previously announced, the responsibility for organising GA Safety Evenings for the coming season has been taken over by GASCo, the GA Safety Council, to which the CAA is a major contributor. The evenings will continue to be of value to everyone involved in general aviation, whatever they fl y, operate or maintain, and logbooks will continue to be signed
when requested as proof of attendance!
The events so far confirmed for the coming winter are listed below, although readers should note that one or two previously announced events may have date changes. For updated information see the CAA website
www.caa.co.uk/safetyevenings or
GASCo http://www.gasco.org.uk/pages/news_item.asp?i_ToolbarID=1&i_PageID=498. Organisations wishing to host a safety evening during the coming winter should contact GASCo on 01380 830584 or by email to ce@gasco.org.uk.
GASIL - Occurrence Digest
For many years GASIL has been accompanied by a list of occurrences recently reported to the CAA’s Safety Data Department. Much of the information contained in this listing has only been available to GA pilots by means of the printed document.
Amongst other proposed changes to the Digest, the CAA now expects to make copies of the Occurrence Digest available on its website each month. Once that is in place, the intention is to cease production of the hard copy for distribution with GASIL at a suitable date in the future.
