Safety - France

PRB monitoring

▪ DSNA achieved the RP3 targets in 2021 and maintained this level in 2022.

▪ France recorded an increase in the rate of runway incursions relative to 2021 and a decrease in the rate of separation minima infringements. Although DSNA observed the decrease of the SMIs with ANS contribution in 2022 relative to 2021, the occurrence number was still high (304) with a rate of 1.5 SMIs per 10,000 flight hours. DSNA should continue assessing occurrences and risk mitigate them according to their SMS, if necessary.

▪ DSNA monitors and analyses the safety data using automated recording tools for separation minima infringements. The French NSA oversight addresses those elements.

▪ DSNA could improve its safety management by implementing automated safety data recording systems for runway incursions.

Effectiveness of Safety Management (EoSM) (KPI#1)

Focus on EoSM

All five EoSM components of the ANSP meet the RP3 target level. The level was maintained compared with 2021.
