2 Slide Title Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) What the information show us? Sarah Fien, Senior Transport Safety Investigator Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB)

3 Slide ATSB Title and RPAS Safety risk of RPAS is now one of the ATSB s eight safety watch priorities Two Second RPAS level research analysis reports 10 RPAS Third occurrence level investigations Presented evidence at the senate inquiry and routinely questioned about RPAS at Senate estimates Part of a working group with Airservices, CASA, DDAAFS and BITRE to monitor the risk to RPAS

4 Slide ATSB Title and RPAS Created new occurrence types collision, near encounter & sighting (event) Near Second encounter: level Where Third an level RPAS interrupts or is sighted in the proximity of another aircraft. Occurrences: Fourth only levelwhere the aircraft had to manoeuvre (or would/should have manoeuvred if there was more Fifth opportunity) level to maintain safe separation, or there was an unsafe situation.
