NTSB Issues Recommendation A-15-034 to National Business Aviation Association Regarding Flight Control Checks

The National Transportation Safety Board, identified by reference number ERA14MA271, has issued Recommendation A-15-034 addressed to the National Business Aviation Association. This directive urges the association to work in conjunction with existing business aviation flight operational quality assurance groups, specifically citing the Corporate Flight Operational Quality Assurance Centerline Steering Committee as an example of such entities. The core objective is to analyze existing data for noncompliance with manufacturer-required routine flight control checks before takeoff. The recommendation further instructs the NBAA to provide the results of this analysis to its members. This initiative is intended to support the association's data-driven safety agenda for business aviation by highlighting areas where adherence to manufacturer protocols may be lacking.
