The publication requires investigation and reporting of Class E aviation mishaps and aviation hazards in AFSAS. It also covers ASAP, HATR, CMAV, and BASH reporting, investigation documentation, and wildlife strike remains.
Applies to: This guidance is applicable to the United States Air Force and the United States Space Force.
CAs will ensure that documented hazard reports have, as a minimum, a completed Sequence of Event section (paragraph 7.1.1.1) and a completed Investigation Conclusions section (paragraph 7.1.1.4).
ASAP reports provide a crew’s, maintainer’s, or other aviation operations personnel’s first-person account of events, plus their recommended corrective actions.
For a hazard report, this section is a plain-text description of the hazardous condition.
Safety staffs will report all damaging BASH events as the applicable mishap class, and all non-damaging BASH events as hazards.
Due to the pause in funding for the Smithsonian Institution’s Feather Identification Lab, safety offices or SIBs/SIOs will collect, preserve, and document wildlife strike remains but will not ship them.
