What is an Operations Manual?
An Operations Manual will mean different things to different organisations, but it will have an impact on your operation. Your Operations Manual must suit your business. At Aviation Manuals Australia we ask you to get involved in the writing of the Exposition to ensure that it is fit for purpose.
CASA
It is the document that shows how you intend to comply with the current legislation.
It is used during an audit to confirm that you doing what you say you are doing. If not you will issued an Non Conformance Notice(NCN).
To the ATSB
If you have an accident or incident that they investigate, the ATSB will check to see that you were operating IAW your manual.
The ATSB will not apportion blame but may highlight deficiencies in your manual as a contributing factor.
Your Insurance Company
If you have an accident or incident and you are not operating in accordance with your Operations Manual, they may decline your insurance claim.
