Dr. Marcus Bauer
iwiation GmbHImproving Aviation Safety: From data recovery to lessons learned training
In case of an aviation accident or incident, the root cause is analysed by the dedicated local authority to publish a safety recommendation if required. To perform the investigation, various data sources must be considered, like flight data recorder, avionics system data, wreckage information, witness statements and data from different consumer products like mobile phones, cameras, etc. . This data must be verified and brought into harmony to create the overall accident scenario. Finally, the reconstructed accident scenario can be used for lessons learned training with human factor analysis. This improves aviation safety by avoiding similar accidents in future.
13.15 - 13.45
Simon Witts
ENGAP UKAviation – Facing up to the global challenges
Facing up to the Global Challenges enables us to take a fresh look at what is required to Attract, Educate and Retain the people that the aviation industry needs. This lays the foundations to Engage and Champion the changes required.
14.45 - 15.15
Peter Myers
Smith MyersThe mobile phone as a Location Beacon using manned and unmanned aircraft.
ARTEMIS, an award winning Mobile Phone Detection and Location Sensor designed specifically for airborne SAR/Disaster Relief. A result of 35 years of innovative leading-edge design expertise by Smith Myers. Offering a radical and effective compliment to traditional airborne sensors, including automatic cueing of EO/IR. This seminar will illustrate how this technology can be used with manned and unmanned aircraft, fixed and rotary wing, and how it fits with existing avionics or stand alone.
15:30 - 16.00
Neil Perrett
Ontic Engineering & Manufacturing UK LimtedLegacy Equipment Sustainment
The sustainment of complex legacy equipment, including low volume high mix manufacturing. As in service fleets age and the industry moves towards even newer technologies then the importance of supporting older products, that span decades, is set to become more critical for customers.

Andrew Fuller
RieglLaser Scanning and Applications from Manned Helicopters
Airborne laser scanning - especially using helicopters - enables the coverage of a wide field of applications in surveying, such as monitoring of power lines and pipelines, the documentation of disaster scenarios, or mapping of areas that are difficult to access. We present our state-of-the-art airborne laser scanners, specifically designed for use on helicopters, including dedicated carrying pods for external payload arms and discuss the acquired 3D point cloud data.
11.45 - 12.15
Tony Payne
DLA PiperSustainability and investment in vertical take-off. The new frontier of aviation.
Covid-19 has changed aviation forever. From the ashes of the global pandemic new opportunities are being realised. There is significant new investment in the aerospace sector, with an unprecedented focus on technology and sustainability in aviation. This session will look at some of the emerging corporate trends and legal landscape giving rise to the opportunities and how companies can be at the forefront of the new frontier of aviation.
12.30 - 13.00
Ian Holder
Baines SimmonsWhy undertake a LOSA (Line Operations Safety Audit)?
The rich data collected on line operations by LOSA enables proactive hazard identification and can be a powerful asset in your Safety Management System. LOSA provides insight into ‘work-as done’ during real operations providing valuable insights into what is working well, or not so well. This seminar will explore how to successfully design, implement and overcome challenges when undertaking a LOSA in your helicopter operation.
13.15 - 13.45
