The annual Director of Flight Safety (DFS) visit by DFS chief investigator Lieutenant-Colonel Young and Chief Warrant Officer Robichaud will take place April 13 and 14. The “DFS roadshow” briefings are always a highlight of the Flight Safety year, as it allows DFS to meet with 14 Wing personnel and deliver a series of educational Flight Safety presentations. The DFS team will review significant incidents and accidents since the last DFS visit and provide some analysis of trends, as well as highlight areas of concern in CAF flying operations. This annual visit to the wing is an opportunity for 14 Wing personnel to learn about Flight Safety issues across the CAF.
Flight Safety is an ongoing process all members of 14 Wing are responsible to maintain. The safe conduct of flying operations, support to flying operations and prevention of accidental losses of personnel and aviation resources remain essential elements of our operational effectiveness.
Wing personnel are invited to attend one of the two 90-minute briefings at the Annapolis Mess:
- April 13, 10 a.m. or 1:30 p.m.
- April 14, 10 a.m.
