Safety Topics

Abstract

Undergoing final review this year by the ICAO Air Navigation Commission (ANC) are updated specifications for flight data and cockpit voice recorders that satisfy today's increased dependency on actual flight information in accident and incident investigation. The object of these specifications that have been developed in the last few years is to improve the effectiveness of flight recorders carried on board aeroplanes and to introduce standards for helicopters.
