BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 4. International
Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) conducted another large-scale
Coordinated Validation Missions (ICVM) audit for compliance with
international aviation safety standards in the field of civil
aviation in Azerbaijan as part of the Universal Security Audit
Programme (USOAP), reports via the Ministry of Digital Development
and transport of Azerbaijan.
During the audit compliance with international standards for
ensuring flight safety and organizing state, control was
consistently checked for eight critical elements.
'The elements include legislation, organizational structure,
flight control, aircraft airworthiness control, air navigation
standards control, aerodrome operator control, licensing, accident
investigation. According to the preliminary report of the
Validation Committee dated September 26, 2022, the effective
implementation of the flight safety management system in Azerbaijan
and compliance with ICAO standards were set at 80 percent,' the
ministry said.
Furthermore, the committee noted that this indicator is five
percent higher than the global and European averages set by ICAO
until 2025, and is considered a very good achievement.
'At the same time, this indicator significantly exceeds the
compliance rate of 66 percent determined during the audit conducted
in Azerbaijan in 2018,' the ministry added.
In connection with the positive result of the audit, ICAO sent a
letter to the Azerbaijani Ministry of Digital Development and
Transport and congratulated the Azerbaijani government and State
Civil Aviation Agency under the ministry on the achieved progress.
The letter also expressed readiness to discuss areas of activity
for further building up the agency's control capacity.
