Can elite weightlifting offer valuable insights for aviation maintenance? Former Olympian Davy Snowdon believes so. At APATS 2024, he'll reveal how lessons from the world of competitive weightlifting can be applied to improve safety protocols in aircraft maintenance.
Snowdon's unique perspective, from competing at two Olympics, promises to shed new light on precision, attention to detail, and risk management.
APATS 2024 conference chair Stuart Membrey spoke with Davy, who holds an MBE and is the Owner and CEO of Pristine Condition International, to find out more about his presentation in Singapore which promises to engage, entertain and reshape our approach to aviation safety.
During his presentation, Snowdon will delve into:
- How Olympic weightlifting techniques can be applied to reduce injuries in aviation maintenance
- Strategies for creating a sustainable safety culture within aviation organisations
- The future of manual handling in aviation, including the role of AI and emerging technologies
- Practical solutions for common challenges in aviation maintenance, from working with heavy equipment to navigating tight spaces
Snowdon will also address the critical issue of slips, trips, and falls, a leading cause of accidents in the aviation industry, through the lens of an athlete's body awareness and control.
Attendees can look forward to Snowdon's engaging presentation style, bolstered by real-world examples and a specially created video demonstrating his techniques in action.
Don't miss this opportunity to gain insights from a true innovator in aviation safety. Davy Snowdon's presentation at APATS 2024 promises to challenge conventional wisdom and offer practical, effective solutions for a safer aviation industry.
