The Impact of Guidelines (Procedures, Instructions, Checklists)on the Work of Technical Maintenance Staff in the Process of OperatingTraining Aircraft. Selected Safety Issues

Abstract

During the process of maintaining training aircraft, specific resources include equipment, human and financial potential, and guidelines for the implementation of the process, i.e. procedures, instructions, technical requirements and checklists. The purpose of this article is to show the importance of guidelines regarding the operation of training aircraft in ensuring flight safety. The research was based on theoretical and empirical methods. The conducted empirical research allowed to learn the opinions of technical maintenance staff on the implemented guidelines for the maintenance of training aircraft. Some staff pointed out potential problems with inappropriately constructed procedures, incor-rect (routine) implementation of services by staff, omission of some required checks and tests, or time constraints. Learning procedures and instructions and then effectively implementing them in everyday work on aviation equipment is aimed at reducing the risk of aviation incidents.
