The Flight Safety Foundation is an independent, nonprofit, international organization concerning research, education, advocacy and communications in the field of aviation safety.[1] FSF brings together aviation professionals from all the sectors to help solve safety problems facing the industry. With a membership that spreads throughout the world, FSF brings an international perspective to aviation issues for its members, the media and the traveling public. Membership ranges from individuals to airlines to manufacturers, from labor and management and in every corner of the industry.

History

Since its founding in 1947, the Foundation has acted as a non-profit, independent clearinghouse to disseminate safety information, identify threats to safety and recommend practical solutions. Today, the Foundation provides leadership to more than 1200 members in more than 75 countries.[2]

AvCIR

The Aviation Crash Injury Research (AvCIR) Division became part of FSF in April 1959, being transferred from Cornell University.[3] AvCIR later became Aviation Safety Engineering and Research (AvSER). AvCIR conducted safety research specific to aviation.

Objectives

The Foundation’s stated objectives are to:

  • "pursue the active involvement and participation of the diverse elements of global professional aviation
  • "Anticipate, identify and analyze global aviation safety issues and set priorities"
  • "Communicate effectively about aviation safety"
  • "Be a catalyst for action and the adoption of best aviation safety practices"

Magazine

The FSF produces a monthly digital journal titled AeroSafety World which has a controlled circulation that includes all FSF members as well as executives at air carriers, maintenance organizations, industry manufacturers and suppliers, and civil aviation authorities.[4]

AeroSafety World is available electronically only.

Seminars

In partnership with other safety organizations, FSF presents four annual summits—the International Air Safety Summit (IASS), the Business Aviation Safety Summit (BASS), the Singapore Aviation Safety Seminar (SASS), and the Safety Forum. FSF also organizes and sponsors smaller, regional safety events throughout the year.

Awards

The FSF gives out annual awards to recognize individual achievements and group achievements in aviation safety.
