The FAA has issued its strategy to pursue both the safety of AI and the use of AI for safety in the US aviation industry – and none too late. AI is an increasingly relevant topic in presentations and on the exhibition floor at Halldale events and in the CAT editorial program.
Don’t get mislead by the term “safety” in the document’s title and set aside the 31-page strategy too soon. Of importance to professionals throughout the commercial aviation training enterprise and adjacent S&T industry, the FAA “gets it” in terms of linking safety and training to this technology thrust. Indeed, “training” is mentioned 24 times in the document, including this section of interest, “AI-based functions can support flight operations, including dispatch, training and training simulators, and scenario prediction. AI applications can also aid in document generation such as training manuals and Safety Risk Management (SRM) support.”
You may have missed the opportunity to add the FAA document to your reading list for the beach during these waning days of summer. Not to worry. The initial version of this strategy will be worth a glance following your return as it lays out quite well FAA’s nascent strategy to meet the initial but quickening pace of flight training organizations, airlines and other stakeholders integrating AI across their portfolios.
