Aviation LOSA Training Company

Line Operations Safety Audits are non-punitive, proactive safety programs. They are based on peer-to-peer observations of routine operations at:

  • Established airlines (Cabin-LOSA and Flight LOSA);
  • Aviation maintenance organizations (LOSA-M);
  • Proactive helicopter operations (LOSA-H); and
  • Ramp operations (LOSA-R).

LOSA provides managers with early warning indicators of developing safety problems.

The basis of any LOSA program begins by selecting and training highly qualified personnel. These highly qualified personnel serve as "observers." 

Observers record 

  • Threats encountered by their peers during routine operations; 
  • Types of errors committed; and 
  • How crews managed the identified threats and errors in order to safety carry out their duties. 

Observing crews manage threats and errors offers excellent insights into training and organizational culture.
