”With my work, I try to ensure safe traveling by trains and safe living near the railway tracks. I feel that with my skills and precision, I can contribute to the safety of our tracks.” 🚂 These are the words of Eetu who worked as a mechanic in Oulu depot last summer. He and other people at FleetCare work to make sure the trains are the safe and responsible way to travel and do logistics 👏 Get to know Eetu and read more about his work: 👉 https://lnkd.in/d8T_QrRj #onthesametracks

There’s been an interesting debate going on around this post and this was my take; ‘……the problem with what you argue isn’t aligned with the real world. I know of many organisations (and have worked for them as a pilot/SM/QM) that have fully adopted standards such as ISARPS/ISO etc and have well aligned and fully developed procedures that are well implemented. Yet incidents/accidents/near misses/non conformities/non compliance happen quite regularly and we realise that no matter how well developed and implemented the compliance instrument is, it rarely copes with the complexities of a modern, dynamic aviation operation by itself. In fact the main reason we don’t have more of these issues highlighted is because of the flexibility and adaptability that the humans bring to the operation I.e, resilience which sees 99% go right on a daily basis, the provide the real ‘meat’ on the bones or compliance but sometimes it goes wrong. Again, I state clearly, I believe that good standards and procedures and any other requirements are completely essential and have their place in the safety/quality mix but they cannot be considered in isolation or standalone and must always be referenced to complexity and systems thinking - this is what I teach on the 4 courses I deliver on a regular basis.’ What are everyone else’s thoughts? Binary would be ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ - I think my view is neither but is ‘balanced’ Guy Malpas Clive Lloyd Gareth Lock Adam Johns
Practical example of why safety standards exist in ground handling. In this case, if only International Air Transport Association (IATA) IGOM 4.4.2.1 b. (or GOSM HDL 1.1.6 (ii)) had been thoroughly understood and followed, one accident would have been avoided. #ISAGO, #IATA, #IOSA

Worth gold is integrity and selfless action.
The first 2 months of my journey as the Senior Airport Fire Officer at Solent Airport has been an enlightening transition from the 'Big Airport' dynamic to the more intimate setting of an executive airfield. Here, the boundaries of job descriptions blur as my tight-knit team of ARFF/RFFS crews come refueling staff, operations, and maintenance personnel, embody the true spirit of versatility. It's incredibly rewarding to be part of a team where 'that's not my job' simply doesn't exist. Each day, I witness the extraordinary results of what can be achieved when everyone wears multiple hats with pride. This experience has not only been a growth opportunity but a testament to the power of collective effort and shared responsibility.

Hello everyone, Today, I won't talk about technical or human factor issues. I just want to talk about the happiness our work brings us and what it leads to. Aircraft maintenance engineers like myself especially rejoice as if they've scored a last-minute goal in the World Cup final when they solve a challenging and difficult fault. Sometimes they don't show it, but their hearts are filled with joy. Sometimes, they celebrate with tea or coffee. What I've described is the happiness on our side, the ones doing the job and approving flights. But what about those we make happy?! Our colleagues, team leaders, our own MCC, our managers, the MCC of the company we serve, the company itself, cabin and cockpit crew, operations officers, ground handling staff, thousands of people waiting for their cargo thousands of kilometers away, and our valued passengers. In fact, the root cause of what makes us happy is the awareness of making so many people happy, both those I've listed and those I haven't. The other reason is seeing that what we do with procedures, our experience, and our team works when everyone wonders how this flying machine is flying. I wish all my colleagues many happy days where AOG faults are solved in your hands and we remove plenty of INOP placards. Regards 🌍✈️🛠️☺️ #aircraftmechanic #aircraftengineer #aircraftmaintenance #airbus #boeing #engineering #happiness

Aircraft Marshaller: The Airport's Unsung Hero🛑🛩 An aircraft marshaller is a crucial part of aircraft ground handling, responsible for safely and efficiently directing aircraft on the ground. 💎 Marshaller responsibilities include: 🔹️Directing aircraft: Guiding aircraft to their designated gates, parking areas, or maintenance bays. 🔹️Coordinating ground operations: Ensuring that ground crews, such as baggage handlers, caterers, and fuelers, have access to the aircraft at the appropriate time. 🔹️Ensuring safety: Preventing collisions between aircraft or with other airport infrastructure. 🔹️Communicating with pilots: Using visual and radio to communicate with pilots and provide them with instructions. However, the increasing adoption of aircraft auto-parking systems is gradually reducing the need for marshals in some areas.

Eliale Dantas, you had the privilege of performing all tasks related to marshalling during United's first flight arrival in Brazil. What a well-done job. !!! **Aircraft marshalling** is a critical aspect of ground handling in aviation. It involves visual communication between ground personnel (marshals) and pilots to guide aircraft. Here's a breakdown of what it entails: ### What is Aircraft Marshalling? - **Visual Signalling**: Marshals use hand signals, marshalling wands, or even follow-me vehicles to guide pilots during taxiing, parking, and other ground movements. - **Communication**: It serves as an alternative or supplement to radio communication, especially in noisy environments or when quick, clear instructions are needed. ### Key Responsibilities - **Guiding Aircraft**: Marshals direct aircraft to their parking stands or runways, ensuring safe and efficient movements. - **Safety Checks**: They perform pre-flight checks, inspect for foreign object debris (FOD), and ensure the aircraft is properly fueled and secured. - **Emergency Procedures**: In case of emergencies, marshals provide crucial guidance to pilots for safe handling and evacuation. ### Importance of Marshalling - **Safety**: Proper marshalling ensures that aircraft movements are conducted safely, reducing the risk of accidents. - **Efficiency**: It helps in the smooth and timely turnaround of aircraft. - **Compliance**: Marshalling ensures adherence to airport regulations and safety protocols, contributing to overall operational efficiency. By maintaining these practices, marshals play an essential role in the safety and efficiency of aviation operations. #aircraftmarshalling #aviationmaintenance #safety ##security #unitedbrazil #elialedantas #orlandovasconcelos #airportoperations #aircraftmechanic #infraerobrasil #gratitudejournalism #linkedin
