Before Your Flight

An Airbus Helicopters pre flight risk assessment app for smartphone.

The App is provided free of charge by Airbus Helicopters to support helicopter pilots in the risk assessment phase of their flight preparation. The application guides the pilot through a mission-customized quiz to assess the risk exposure of a flight. The resulting risk evaluation and risk mitigation proposals are there to support the flight preparation. The pilot can also decide to share this evaluation with his company’s Safety Manager within the application. In order to highlight the background of some factors, some reading suggestions from renowned safety working groups worldwide are linked in the quiz. In an effort to share this best practice as largely as possible, several language options are available in the application.
