The Aircraft Certification, Safety, and Accountability Act (ACSAA) is a U.S. law passed in December 2020 in response to the Boeing 737 MAX crashes. The law enhances aircraft certification processes, strengthens FAA oversight, and increases accountability for manufacturers.
Key Provisions of ACSAA:
1. Strengthened FAA Oversight
- Increases FAA authority over the aircraft certification process.
- Reduces manufacturer self-certification and requires more FAA involvement.
2. Safety Management System (SMS) Requirements
- Mandates that aircraft manufacturers implement a formal Safety Management System (SMS).
- Encourages proactive safety risk assessments and hazard identification.
3. Whistleblower Protections
- Strengthens protections for employees who report safety concerns.
- Encourages transparency and accountability within manufacturers.
4. Pilot and Crew Training Enhancements
- Requires improved pilot training on new aircraft systems (e.g., MCAS for the 737 MAX).
- Enhances simulator training requirements.
5. Accountability for Misconduct
- Imposes stricter penalties for executives or companies that mislead the FAA.
- Prevents manufacturers from withholding safety-related information.
The ACSAA aims to prevent future aviation disasters by ensuring better oversight, transparency, and safety in aircraft certification. Would you like details on how it impacts a specific part of aviation?
