ICAO Government Safety Inspector Operations - Air Cargo Certification
DESCRIPTION
This Implementation Package (iPack) is a self-contained package assisting and guiding the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) and their operations safety inspectors to perform certification activities for the safe transport of air cargo. It includes relevant documentation and a training course to support these functions. A dedicated subject matter expert will work with the CAA personnel guiding their implementation efforts to achieve the objectives of this iPack. The level of progress made against each iPack objective depends on the availability of authority’s resources to perform the work.
GOAL
The goal of this iPack is to assist and guide civil aviation authorities, and their operations safety inspectors, with attaining the competencies required to conduct certification and oversight activities for the safe transport of air cargo.
OBJECTIVES

- specify the requirements of an air cargo operator’s manual system and applicable documentation;
- understand the CAA inspector’s role in conducting demonstrations and inspections to ensure air cargo operations comply with applicable CAA regulations, guidance and safe operating practices;
