then an investigation should be initiated to identify the cause and consider implementing steps to

10.3.

Investigation Procedure

Any investigations undertaken by
will be advised initially of any occurrence with a simple statement of the known facts such as date, time,
location, aircraft involved, Pilot-In-Command, damage sustained and a brief description of the
occurrence. EuroUSC
INTRODUCTION
The introduction contains the context for the Incident and confirms the major facts as to the companies
and people involved, why they were present and the reason for the flights being carried out.
DESCRIPTION OF EVENTS
This is a factual account of the events leading up to and immediately after the incident as well as the
incident itself. Its aim is to provide an agreed basis upon which the analysis is carried out.
Importantly any assumptions should be clearly stated and all data provided should have its authenticity
and derivation stated. If there are doubts then these should also be clearly articulated so that future
analysis can take this into account.
ANALYSIS
The analysis of events sets out to find explanations for what is described in the description of events.
Wherever possible the analysis draws upon known concepts, models and physical understanding to
ensure that the events as described have a logical explanation.
The analysis should set the scene for any conclusions and provide traceability from the facts to the
conclusions in a logical and auditable way.
CONCLUSIONS
The conclusions are derived from the analysis, which themselves are based upon the facts in the
description of events or the facts as they pertain to concepts, models and physical understanding
exposed within the analysis. A strong conclusion is one where this traceability is good and can stand up
to scrutiny.
RECOMMENDATIONS
The aim of the recommendations is to provide the organisations or personnel identified for the report
with those items and actions that can lead to a safer operation and which address the short-comings
highlighted through the investigation process. These may cover anything, however the key issue of
safety must be addressed and is the primary concern of EuroUSC
10.4.

Mandatory Occurrence Reporting

Mandatory Occurrence Reporting will be completed as required by the National Aviation Authority for
the particular country of operation. For example, when operating in the United Kingdom CAP382 will be
the compliance document and reporting will be carried out utilising the form SRG 1601.
