General Aviation Joint Safety Committee (GAJSC)
General Aviation Joint Safety Committee (GAJSC)
Background
The General Aviation Joint Safety Committee (GAJSC) -- formerly the General Aviation Joint Steering Committee -- was launched in 1997 as part of the industry-government Safer Skies Initiative to improve aviation safety. It is a U.S.-based public-private partnership that works to improve general aviation safety through data-driven risk reduction efforts focused on education, training, and enabling new equipment in GA aircraft in order to reduce the GA fatal accident rate.
The GAJSC analyzes aviation safety data to identify emerging issues and develop mitigation strategies to address and prioritize safety issues. GAJSC participants include the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and industry stakeholders, including pilot organizations, flight instructors, mechanics, builders, and manufacturers.
