Operational Safety Assurance Documentation

• Aerodrome organisation shall produce and maintain
  safety assurance documentation.
• All safety related roles and functions
• A safety based risk assessment of the roles and
  functions where practicable
• For those safety related tasks and functions,
  that a process of risk management is established

• The Aerodrome management shall show compliance
  with the safety requirements for any operational
  system. This can only take place after the
