Monsoon Weather Operations (MonOps)
Introduction
Introduction
IATA's 2018 Safety Report shows 33% of all accidents between 2014 and 2018 were weather-related - 46% of all fatal accidents during that period.
As the Asian SW Monsoon season approaches, so too does the risk of operating in adverse weather operations. Several accidents have highlighted the dangers of operating around the Inter-Tropical Convergence Line (ITZC); the Monsoon Trough; and severe convective systems.
This course will provide a detailed understanding of the ITCZ, and Monsoon Trough - including the dangers of operating in these zones. While examining recent Runway Excursions, LOCs, CFITs, Undershoots accidents, this course will discuss theory, participants' experience, and highlight industry guidance including: EASA SIB No: 2015-13; DGCA (India) Ops Cir 9 of 2010; and DGCA (Indonesia) AU-5687-DSKU-03-2006.
This one day (1 day) workshop is designed to provide delegates with a refresher of the ITCZ, the Monsoon trough and weather hazards of operating in these zones (e.g., reduced visibility, turbulence, thunderstorms, windshear). A discussion of the Asian SW Monsoon will also be incorporated.
To maximise the transfer of training to the line, the course will be a mixture of a brief review of theory and aviation weather hazards combined with scenario-based weather events, case studies, and discussions.
