We are pleased to announce that the 44th edition of Safety Focus magazine is now available for download ๐ aviassist.org/magazine.
As always our magazine features a wide range of articles that highlight key lessons and insights for aviation safety in Africa and beyond.
In this edition:
๐โPull Up, Captainโ by Mark Lacagnina
A detailed account of the Precision Air ATR 42 accident at Bukoba, Tanzania, where ignoring terrain warnings and the first officerโs pleas led to tragedy. The article underscores the importance of respecting safety systems, crew input, and the challenges of visual approaches in adverse weather.
๐ โContinued Airworthiness vs. Continuing Airworthinessโ by Stefan Machita (republished with permission from Airbus).
An essential clarification of two terms often confused in aviation. Continuing airworthiness refers to the daily responsibility of operators to keep each aircraft safe to fly, while continued airworthiness focuses on the long-term design integrity and safety of an aircraft type, overseen by manufacturers and regulators.
These and other articles in this edition emphasize why continuous learning and professional development are vital to raising the bar for aviation safety across Africa.

๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง had a great opportunity to gain knowledge about relevant aviation safety topics.
The basic theme of the day, being "Just Culture", the audience was challenged to participate in interactive as well as informative sessions, about
existing incidents, the latest drone detection techniques and the safety network management at .klm_schiphol.
Congratulations to for winning the annual safety award for their "See it and Say it" app, and for their effective training for ground and aircrews to deal with aggression by passengers. Both initiatives highly contribute to safety for crew and passengers.
A large team of our volunteers was present AND used the intervals to explain the importance of our Aviation Safety courses in Africa to visitors to our stand.
