Batiskaf Posted November 9, 2011 Report Share Posted November 9, 2011 CBC-TV documentary on the Transport Canada Safety Management System (SMS ), implemented four or so years ago, will be broadcast right after the CBC National News on Wednesday night, November 9, 2011, beginning at about 10:20 PM, then on the French CBC programme "Enquete" on Nov. 17.

wcobra Posted November 9, 2011 Report Share Posted November 9, 2011 Me too, but since the signal went from analogue to digital, the box doesn't seem to give anything to watch anymore...not that there was much before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
212wrench Posted November 9, 2011 Report Share Posted November 9, 2011 Should be a good watch especially if you remember, and if you have been in this business long enough you will know what I am saying, that half of what the media tells us is wrong and the rest they make up so you won't turn the channel. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skidmark Posted November 9, 2011 Report Share Posted November 9, 2011 Right on, CBC and the rest of the media are so awesome at reporting aviation related material. Now re-read that last sentence with the most sarcastic tone you can muster and you'll get my point. Can't wait to read about it tomorrow as I am in the same situation with no TV, just crappy internet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 47yrLowTimer Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 As I mentioned in a previous post, the SMS program is all about liability. Or more to the point, TC absolving themselves of it. I have work for some good and some questionable operators prior to SMS. One can only wonder the corners that are being cut by those that walked a fine line prior to SMS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coastal Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 An interesting clip, thanks for posting. Still, a question that kept coming to mind was how would increased TC audits of Transwest Air have prevented the featured accident? My understanding is that TC audits look more into maintenance, pilot training records, SOPs, paperwork etc etc, and not how air crew get along. I think alot of what this clip brings up is of valid concern, I just don't think they chose the best showcase of the failings of SMS.
