In Cambodia, young people will often ask me who my idol is. Easy answer: TSB Chair Kathy Fox. From "Raising the bar on safety"-- "Getting clients, passengers, crews, and operators to reject unsafe practices—and to speak up to prevent those practices from happening—will be difficult. Doing so will require strategies, promotion, and education tailored to the sector to change values, attitudes, and behaviours and create a culture where unsafe practices are considered unacceptable. To help with this, the TSB issued four recommendations to Transport Canada and industry aimed at: eliminating the acceptance of unsafe practices; promoting proactive safety management and a culture of operating safely; updating aviation regulations to reduce identified safety gaps; and tracking data so that mitigation strategies can be better assessed.
Air Transport Association of Canada (ATAC) honours TSB Chair Kathy Fox for her outstanding contributions to #Aviation. Chair Fox’s impressive career spans over 50 years in the aviation industry, including her 9+ years promoting transportation safety as Chair at the TSB, 50+ years of experience as a pilot, flight instructor, former parachutist, and air traffic controller. #TSBAir
