AuxAir Risk Management and Mitigation Processes Commodore David Starr Division Chief – Aviation Unclassified Response Directorate
National Staff • Program Managers • Advises on policy to NEXCOM and CHDIRAUX • The Districts, their leaders, and the Aviators in the AuxAir fleet are our customers. UNCLASSIFIED 2
Mission Statement Provide the United States Coast Guard and Coast Guard Auxiliary with a Safe, Proficient, Effective and Efficient Aviation Program. Unclassified Response Directorate
National Program Goals • SAFE • PROFICIENT • EFFECTIVE • EFFICIENT • SUPPORTIVE UNCLASSIFIED 4
Safety Program Overview • Auxiliary Aviation missions require the flight crew to understand they operate in an unforgiving environment. • That understanding demands “ Risk Management and Mitigation” as the flight crew uses best practices for information gathering, hazard recognition, decision making, flight proficiency and crew resource management techniques. Unclassified Response Directorate
Training Goals • Understanding of: • ACN 030/18 - MAR 2018 PROMULGATION OF RISK MANAGEMENT • Risk Management Policy (COMDTINST 3500.3A) • Mishap Data: Identifying Trends, Hazards, and Causes of Accidents Unclassified Response Directorate
Training Goals – Identify 7 Types of Pilot Related Accidents - Risk Assessment, Management and Mitigation Processes - I’M SAFE - General Assessment of Risk (GAR) 2.0 Unclassified Response Directorate
Training Goals • Understanding of: - PEACE Model - STAAR Model - Flight Training to Proficiency … not just Currency - FAA WINGS Pilot Proficiency Program Participation Unclassified Response Directorate
NATIONAL AVIATION SAFETY GOALS 0% Accidents & 100 % Voluntary Pilot Participation Unclassified
How Do We Achieve Our Goals • Review and Adhere to Regulations and Policy Guidance … (FAA and USCG/USCG AUX) • Expand and Improve Knowledge Base • Recognition of Accident Trends and Hazards • Risk Management and Mitigation • Flight Training to Proficiency … not just to Currency • Promote an Auxiliary Aviation Safety Culture
The Scary Reality.. • Most Mishaps occur during flight perceived as low threat or routine • Departure, Arrival, In route to search area, etc.
Where Do We Start? We start at the wreck … then work our way back to our safety goals.
Where Do We Start? • At the Wreck!

• RM is a systematic and standardized process to identify, assess and mitigate hazard exposure and control risk. • 5 Step Process: (1-3) Identify, Assess and Mitigate/Control Hazards (performed in advance of mission) and (4-5) Implement Mitigation Controls and Supervise/Evaluate for change during mission. • RM is a continuous and dynamic process.
Risk Management (RM) Process • Most significant change in new RM COMDTINST is to promote more “deliberate” RM • “Deliberate” (steps 1-3) versus “Real Time” (steps 4-5) Risk Assessment • Deliberate RM promotes more rapid mission response as crews have had time and opportunities to mitigate potential hazards
Back to the Future • We study past accident reports and mishap trends with the hope of preventing future accidents and mishaps. • “Bad News”… we keep seeing repeated patterns that cause general aviation accidents and mishaps. • “Good News”… these repeated patterns give us a place to focus our RM efforts as we go forward.
Joseph T. Nall Report • Gold Standard for Interpreting General Aviation Accident Statistics and Trends. • Accidents versus Accident Rates (commonly expressed as accidents per 100,000 flight hours) • Final versus Preliminary Statistics (takes about 3 years to obtain firm data from NTSB investigations) Unclassified

Take Aways from the Data • Pilot Related Accident Causes- 75% • Mechanical Related Causes- 15% • “Other” Related Causes - 10% • 7 Types of Pilot Related Accidents
Take Aways from the Data 7 Types of Pilot Related Accidents 1.Weather 2.Takeoffs and Climbs 3.Maneuvering 4.Fuel Management 5.Decent/Approach 6.Landing 7.Other
Addressing the Issues Training Requirements • FAA Biannual Flight Review (BFR) • AUX Biannual Flight Check Review (alternate year between FAA BFR) • Annual Safety Seminar • Aux 14 C-School offered to DFSO and AirSta FSO
Addressing the Issues • I’M SAFE • PEACE Model • STAAR Model • GAR 2.0 • Voluntary Pilot Participation in FAA Wings Pilot Proficiency Program
I’M SAFE Acronym
PEACE Model • P lanning • E vent Complexity • A ssets (equipment, platform, personnel) • C ommunication and Supervision • E nvironment
STAAR Model • S pread Out • T ransfer • A void • A ccept • R educe
General Assessment of Risk (GAR) 2.0 • The GAR 2.0 is a convenient tool to capture deliberations of the PEACE and STAAR elements, and integration of “Gain” information to make “Warranted Risk” decisions. refer to handout GAR 2.0 for Aviation
GAR 2.0 • GAR 2.0 includes a Risk versus Gain matrix to support risk-based decision making. • This matrix incorporates a new Three-Zone Scale and institutes a Gain Component to help identify risk exposure and potential benefits/gain of the mission in order to make sound decisions.
FAA Wings Pilot Proficiency • The WINGS - Pilot Proficiency Program is based on the premise that pilots who maintain currency and proficiency in the basics of flight will enjoy a safer and more stress-free flying experience.
FAA Wings Pilot Proficiency • The objective of the WINGS Program is to address the primary accident causal factors that continue to plague the general aviation community. • By focusing on this objective, we hope to reduce the number of accidents we see each year for the same causes.
FAA Wings Pilot Proficiency • A true proficiency program, designed to help improve our skills and knowledge as pilots. • Ongoing targeted knowledge training through seminars, online study, etc. • Ongoing targeted flight activity with dedicated tasks and maneuvers.
AuxAir Safety Culture • Acknowledge we operate in an unforgiving environment • Facilitate Safety Culture Programs with District Flight Safety Officers • Encourage and provide a non-judgmental environment for reporting and investigating AuxAir safety issues and proficiency through the DFSO.
