  1. CGAPH Safety BriefingFlight Risk Assessment Tool (FRAT)August, 2011

  2. WHAT IS "FRAT"? FRAT stands for FLIGHT RISK ASSESSMENT TOOL. This tool is designed to assist with Aeronautical Decision Making and is an Operational Risk Management tool. Use of tool is mandatory for all flights in CGAPH aircraft as of September 1, 2011. Students will be responsible for completing the FRAT as part of pre-flight preparation for both solo and dual flights. See CAE ATO Safety Bulletin #11.

  3. WHY "FRAT"? Real time risk assessment, combined with real time risk mitigation has shown dramatic increases in the safety of flight. The FRAT is designed to provide a consistent method for identifying and assessing risk. Risk mitigation and/or go/no-go decisions can then be taken based on the original assessment. By providing a standardized risk assessment tool, variations in risk assessment can be reduced and risk mitigation can be more consistent across the company.

  4. FRAT TOOL PROCEDURE • 1. As part of pre-flight preparation, after receiving the weather briefing and completing pre-flight preparation, either print out the FRAT tool or fill in online and print out completed form.
