Controlled flight into terrain (CFIT) is the leading cause of fatalities in commercial aviation. Approach and landing accidents (ALA) cause over 50% of all hull losses at every level of aviation. Starting in 1992, the Flight Safety Foundation conducted a major effort to identify the causes of CFIT and ALA, develop interventions, and get this critical information to the aviation personnel around the world. The product of this effort is the ALAR (approach and landing accident reduction) tool kit. This tool kit consolidates the data, products, findings, conclusions, and recommendations of nine years of work by over 300 international aviation experts. The Flight Safety Foundation’s “controlled flight into terrain and approach and landing action group” (CAAG) conducts regional ALAR workshops to get this important safety information to the people who can use it. All aviation related organizations and

individuals are encouraged to attend these workshops. We recommend attendees include; operators (commercial, cargo, and corporate), pilot groups, regulators, airports, and ATC representatives. At the workshops, the CAAG team provides briefings on the history of the ALAR effort, some background on the region’s safety statistics, and a detailed discussion of each element of the ALAR tool kit. This discussion includes what each element is, why it is in the tool kit, and some recommendations on how it might be used. Some suggested practical applications of the ALAR material are also presented. The Flight Safety Foundation’s CAAG has conducted 26 highly successful workshops around the world including: Miami, Mexico

City, Cairo, Iceland, Bangkok, Nairobi, Johannesburg, Perth, Melbourne, Beijing, Dakar, Moscow, Brussels, Dubai, Bahrain, Korea, Washington DC, Christchurch, Anchorage, Abu Dhabi, Muscat, New Delhi, and Caracas, Tokyo, and Baku, and Bangladesh. The aviation authorities in Mexico, India, and Cuba have made ALAR training based on the ALAR tool kit mandatory for all pilots. CFIT and approach and landing accidents continue to be a major challenge for aviation. The ALAR tool kit and the ALAR workshops are designed to meet that challenge, and to assist attendees to reduce the risk of these killers in aviation.

The workshops are suitable for anyone within the aviation industry, including: airline operators (commercial, cargo, and corporate), pilot groups, regulators, airports, and ATC representatives. It is hoped to attract as many people as possible to the events from a broad cross section of the industry.

About the Flight Safety Foundation Flight Safety Foundation is an independent, non-profit, international organisation engaged in research, auditing, education, advocacy and publishing to improve aviation safety. Membership is open to everyone interested in promoting aviation safety - in any of its aspects. The FSF roster of more than 1,070 members from 142 countries represents a “who’s who” of industry leaders from airlines, helicopter manufacturers, corporate operators, suppliers, insurance companies, regulators and others. The Flight Safety Foundation’s mission is to pursue the continuous improvement of global aviation safety and the prevention of accidents. Their objectives are to: Pursue the active involvement and participation of the diverse elements of global professional aviation; Anticipate, identify and analyse global aviation safety issues and set priorities; Communicate effectively about aviation safety; and, Be a catalyst for action and the adoption of best aviation safety practices. Often referred to as the “conscience of the industry,” Flight Safety Foundation has contributed significantly to the evolution of aviation safety and the saving of lives. The Flight Safety Foundation occupies a unique position among the many organisations that strive to improve flight safety standards and practices throughout the world. Effectiveness in bridging cultural and political differences in the common cause of safety has earned the Flight Safety Foundation worldwide respect. They are distinguished by their objectivity.

“The ALAR workshops are a great opportunity for the industry in Australia to take advantage of the significant experience and expertise of the Flight Safety Foundation and its CFIT & ALA Action Group.” “Access to these workshops is significantly subsidised, with workshops of this calibre normally priced at many times what is being offered here.” “This is only possible due to both contributions of the Aviation Safety Foundation, its partners and supporters, and the international presenters themselves - who have paid their own way to Australia to deliver the workshops.” “I strongly urge you to attend.” Trevor Jensen Chairman, Aviation Safety Foundation Australasia
