Pre-show Guide for HELI-EXPO 2016
HAI Rotor Safety Challenge Special Sessions
Most Rotor Safety Challenge events are one hour in length, but we’ve added some special sessions this year: Replay sessions are repeated, giving you more opportunities to catch the sessions you don’t want to miss. In-Depth sessions are longer than 60 minutes, allowing some subjects to be covered in more detail.

This session describes a model for accident causation that addresses organizational features and conditions that may cause an accident.
ANALYSIS: AERONAUTICAL KNOWLEDGE VS. WHAT PILOTS SHOULD KNOW
Mar. 1, 2016 | 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm | C101 Mar. 2, 2016 | 9:15 am – 10:15 am | C101 Presenter: Scott Burgess, assistant professor, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University – Worldwide, and member, U.S. Helicopter Safety Team Professional Development Credit: FAA WINGS program credit This session offers an in-depth look at aeronautical knowledge, decision making, and understanding of limitations. This presentation is a combination of applying practical knowledge beyond the Helicopter Flying Handbook and the research of the International Helicopter Safety Team Analysis Team to identify ways to reduce risk. Ideal for all experience levels, this presentation evolved from extensive research for The Reality of Aeronautical Knowledge: The Analysis of Accident Reports Against What Aircrews Are Supposed to Know.
AUTOROTATIONS: REALITY EXPOSED Mar. 1, 2016 | 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm | C108
Presenters: Industry professionals and representatives from the FAA and National Transportation Safety Board Professional Development Credit: FAA WINGS program credit The results of a collaborative effort by OEMs, operators, and federal agencies to uncover unique aspects of this maneuver and the mistakes most often discovered in accident investigations, this in-depth session provides a unique look at autorotations. Leaders in the helicopter instruction and training industry will present tips, tools, and techniques that will prepare you for a safe emergency procedure and ultimately prevent you from becoming an accident statistic!
AVIATION HUMAN FACTORS: PROTECTING US FROM OURSELVES
Mar. 1, 2016 | 2:15 pm – 3:15 pm | C104 Mar. 2, 2016 | 10:30 am – 11:30 am | C104 Presenter: Jason Quisling, aviation compliance evaluator, Air Methods Corporation, and member, U.S. Helicopter Safety Team Professional Development Credit: FAA AMT and WINGS programs credit It has been said that there are no new accidents. So why do we continue to make the same mistakes? This session will use case studies and video to answer that question. In the process, participants will be introduced to human factors and error management theory.
AVIATION LAW: WHAT PILOTS NEED TO KNOW Mar. 1, 2016 | 2:15 pm – 3:15 pm | C205
Mar. 2, 2016 | 11:45 am – 12:45 pm | C205 Presenter: Jon Kettles, attorney, The Kettles Law Firm Professional Development Credit: FAA WINGS program credit Pilots are expected to know and follow the Federal Aviation Regulations but have likely never heard about other important legal rights and responsibilities necessary to protect themselves professionally and financially. Using case studies, this session will educate participants about standards of conduct for pilots, determination of fault following an accident or incident, investigation procedures of the FAA and National Transportation Safety Board, insurance coverage requirements, legal relationships between pilots and employers, and other relevant issues. Bring your questions to ask an aviation lawyer.
BOWTIE METHOD FOR SAFETY RISK MANAGEMENT Mar. 2, 2016 | 3:30 pm – 4:30 pm | C205 Presenter: Gerald Kosbab, president, AeroDirections, LLC Professional Development Credit: FAA AMT and WINGS programs credit This session will introduce participants to the BowTie methodology for analyzing hazards in rotorcraft operations. The session will focus on managing the risk controls necessary to prevent undesirable situations and reduce the severity of their consequences. Participants will discover the power of visualization to better understand their hazard registers and controls and to effectively manage the associated risks to the organization and its people and assets.
COMMUNICATING SAFETY TO THE C-LEVEL EXECUTIVE Mar. 1, 2016 | 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm | C205 Presenters: Stuart Lau, FDM systems manager, SkyTrac Systems, and member, U.S. Helicopter Safety Team; Paul Spring, president, Phoenix HeliFlight; Stephen Sorocky, CEO, SkyTrac Systems; Ed Stockhausen, vice president of safety, Air Methods Professional Development Credit: FAA AMT and WINGS programs credit To successfully get a safety initiative implemented, you need to convince a lot of people that your idea is worth pursuing. Ultimately, you will need to focus on convincing the C-level execs in your organization, such as the CEO, CFO, or COO. You will need to learn to speak their language – “C-speak” — and tailor your safety message directly to the organization’s business needs. What better way to learn this language than an interactive panel discussion with a group of executives?
DEVELOPING ROTORCRAFT ASIAS: AN OVERVIEW OF HFDM-ASSOCIATED RESEARCH Mar. 2, 2016 | 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm | C108 Presenters: Keith M.
