ROCKVILLE, M.D., August 17, 2022 – AviationManuals, a leading provider of procedure development services and Safety Management System (SMS) software, has recently updated its popular SAFA Inspection Manual Service. The company has noted a marked increase in customers and subscribers requesting SAFA inspection manuals in 2022 vs 2021 as the Ramp Inspection Program continues to expand. Utilized both inside and outside of the EU, SAFA Inspections help facilitate safety and compliance checks on items such as pilot licenses, procedures and manuals, compliance with procedures, safety equipment, cargo, and aircraft condition.

While the latest guidance from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) did not necessitate changes to flight department operations, it did clarify guidance for inspectors performing checks on general aviation (non-commercial) operators. AviationManuals has updated their subscription service to ensure compliance and help operators continue to have effortless inspections.

“Our mantra at AviationManuals is ‘safety is in the small stuff.’ Staying up to date is vital to our clients and so our subscribers consistently receive updated notifications and revised procedures to mitigate risks and ensure compliance,” said Mark Baier, CEO of AviationManuals. “We incorporated these changes which in this case will benefit both operators and inspectors during a SAFA inspection.”

SAFA Inspection Manuals provide guidance to crews and inspectors on where to find inspection items within the operator’s documentation and aircraft, making it easier to complete the inspection and reduce potential delays.
