= Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (India) =

Introduction
AAIB unveiling its acronym to Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau is one of the well planned institution under the surveillance of Civil Aviation Ministry which looks up to the aircraft accidents and its investigations and makes a perfect effort to find out a reasonable evidence for mishaps created which can lead to the improvement in working of the aircrafts and avoid such life taking accidents in the future times. Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) is under the Ministry of Transportation and is accused of the duty to explore any considerate flying machine mischance and genuine episode emerging out of, or throughout air route and happening either in or over the nation, or striking an air ship somewhere else. A country for the most part grows such sort of association under its common avionics group, so it can work as an Agency to ensure speedy reaction and development of staff to mischance destinations. The policy ensures that the Bureau shall be responsible for the investigation of aircraft accidents and serious incidents as well as publication of investigation reports.

The crucial goal of AAIB is to enhance aeronautics security by deciding the conditions and causes for air mishaps and genuine occurrences, and providing safety recommendations proposed to anticipate repeat of comparable mishaps. The reason for this isn't to distribute fault or obligation.

History
Directorate General of Civil Aviation has been up to this point conducting examination of mischances and genuine occurrences and offering help for the examination by Court of Inquiry and Committee of Inquiry. As per the International Civil Aviation Organization, Standard and recommended practices and to give freedom of examination work from the administrative capacity, it has been chosen to make a framework for autonomous aircraft accident investigation. Aircraft (Investigation of Accidents and Incidents) Rules, 2012 has become effective from 5 July, 2012. The Aircraft Rules, 2012 (Investigation of Accidents and Incidents), accommodate setting up of an Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau. .

Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau was under the Directorate General of Civil Aviation and making it an autonomous body was required under  Indian civil aviation organization standards. The International Civil Aviation Organization is a particular office under the United Nations which has the order to guarantee that nearby respectful avionics tasks and directions in various nations are in similarity with worldwide standards. With AAIB turning into a free body, worries about possible conflict of interest would be addressed .The department, which was made a different division under the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) in 2012, has the duty of examining all aircraft episodes and mischances in the nation. The AAIB takes the assistance of specialists on a case-to-case premise while examining flying machine mischance.

Planning the Investigation
Communication among the investigation with Civil Authorities, Police Authorities, Defence Experts, Hospitals, Ambulance Services, Fire Services and some other neighborhood expert is necessarily significant. As a rule, aerodrome authority, neighborhood tenants and also police will likely be the major people to arrive at the scene of an accident. It is, thus, critical to have participation of the police and aerodrome authorities to guarantee the security of the destruction. On the off chance that it is suspected that the air ship may have conveyed hazardous shipment, extraordinary insurances ought to be taken in putting staff at a protected separation from the destruction. This is especially vital if a fire has happened. The Officer In charge of the Aerodromes nearest to the site of misfortune might aid coordination with Local Police Authorities and might take promptly all sensible measures until the landing of the officer of Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau(A.A.I.B) or some other approved individual. The Officer In charge of the Aerodromes closest to the site of accident shall assist in coordination with Local Police Authorities and shall take immediately all reasonable measures to protect the evidence of the accident  until the arrival of the officer of AAIB or any other authorized person. Because of the significance of flight accounts, extreme care must be seized in taking care of the recorders to avoid harm. Just completely qualified work force ought to be allotted to recover and handle the recorders. Care should be taken of transportation of the flight recorders from the accident site to the read-out offices. The approved officer of AAIB should co-ordinate with the police specialists/Local Government Authorities to mastermind quick emergency treatment and medicinal consideration, to extinguish fire and emigration of the people in any condition from the destruction. The officer responsible for Aerodrome might guarantee with the assistance of administrator that the pilots and the Co-pilots are quickly subjected to medicinal examination for the consumption of alcohol. The specialist completing such a medical check-up should take tests of blood, urine and so forth required for chemical analysis. In the event of death of the crew members, complete autopsy examination of critically injured flight crew, fatally injured passengers and cabin attendants is required to be carried out. On the off chance that the pilot or potentially co-pilot are discovered dead, the fundamental photos must be taken. Safe authority should incorporate assurance against additionally harm, access by unapproved people, stealing and deterioration. All the parts of the aircraft or relevant matter picked up from the wreckage should be preserved. The aircraft parts or components which are suspected to have malfunctioned are preserved for testing or examination in a thorough manner. The positions at which the flight data and voice recorders are found if installed on the aircraft should be recorded on a sketch.

Pilot error:
A genuine pilot mistake is an uncommon occasion. However, what is so regularly named a pilot mistake is really a pilot choice that didn't bring about the result expected by the pilot, the regulator or the public. Genuine pilot mistakes can just happen in transport-classification planes that are being traveled to the FAR Part 121 norms that represent the significant carriers.

Mechanical:
It is of incredible noteworthiness to recognize and elucidate the conditions and reasons for any air ship mishap which will help dodge comparable mischances later on. Other than attribution of different airplane mishaps to flying causes, awful climate is another prime reason for mischances of numerous flying machine and helicopters in India. However, scarcely any investigation is accessible in such manner in India utilizing their long stretch information.

Weather:
Other than attribution of different aircrafts mischances to aeronautical causes, bad climate is another prime reason for mishaps of numerous flying machine and helicopters in India. Be that as it may, barely any investigation is accessible in such manner in India utilizing their long stretch information.

Sabotage:
Around 10% of flying machine misfortunes are caused by undermine. Similarly as with lightning strikes, the hazard postured by disrupt is substantially less than numerous individuals appear to accept. things considered in sabotage is hijacking, explosive on board , shot down.

Incident Reporting System:

 * If you want to go further on finding out the deficiencies in the safety and investigate the incident properly then more than one organisation should report to AAIB.
 * When the reports are voluntarily submitted to AAIB then it should also have collection on actual or potential safety deficiencies, which may not be mentioned by the mandatory reporting system.There should be a total protection to the sources of information in voluntary incident reporting.

Database System:

 * Once they receive information from different report like mandatory or voluntary or incident investigation, the ALD division of the AAIB will maintain a database. First the data will be kept in the excel format to facilitate the effective analysis of information. For further analysis and to facilitate data exchange the data will then be standardized.

Analysis of Data - Preventive Actions to be Taken:

 * When AAIB is conducting the analysis of the database, if safety measures considered to be interest of other states are identified then they will share this information with the manufacturer which will spread them as soon as possible.

Exchange of safety Information:

 * AAIB and the APD is required to summaries the accident on there website also they should have the analysis available with the ICAO website and implement the conclusions which came from the analysis.
