SMS & COMPLIANCE

Evidence that your safety management system is working.

14 CFR Part 5 asks every certificate holder to show that its safety controls are effective. Flight Data Analytics gives your SMS the objective, flight-by-flight measurement that safety assurance depends on.

PART 135 SMS DECLARATION OF COMPLIANCE

May 28, 2027

Part 135 operators must have a functioning SMS in place by this date. A system that exists on paper but cannot show how the operation is actually flown leaves the safety assurance component thin.

THE FOUR COMPONENTS

Where Flight Data Analytics fits in Part 5.

SUBPART B

Safety policy

We help you set a clear, non-punitive policy for how flight data is collected, reviewed and used, so the program supports the safety culture your policy describes.

SUBPART C

Safety risk management

Trends in departure and approach risk point to hazards worth analyzing, such as a particular airport, runway or procedure, and give your risk assessments real data to work from.

SUBPART D · OUR CORE CONTRIBUTION

Safety assurance

§ 5.71 Safety performance monitoring and measurement. Every departure and approach measured against your own standards, every month.

§ 5.73 Safety performance assessment. Baselines, indicators and targets that show whether performance is improving or drifting.

§ 5.75 Continuous improvement. Specific recommendations, followed by measurement that shows whether each action worked.

SUBPART E

Safety promotion

De-identified crew reports and pilot bulletins share lessons from your own line, the most credible safety communication a pilot group receives.

AUDIT READINESS

A record you can put in front of anyone.

Monthly reports, archived. A continuous history of safety performance for internal evaluations and third-party audits.

Indicators and targets. Safety performance indicators drawn from your own baselines, with targets your committee has approved.

Actions and outcomes. Each recommendation recorded alongside the decision taken and its measured effect.

Your manuals, reflected. Event limits that match your GOM and SOPs, so findings speak in your operation's own terms.
