24 November AusALPA Submission to CASA Consultation on Global Reporting Format November 24, 2023 AusALPA has made a submission on the Proposed Policy for the implementation of Global Reporting Format (GRF). The Association has been a advocating for the implementation of GRF, since 2018, as it is an agreed international standard and has been developed to provide an easier way of assessing runway surface condition and thus helping to prevent runway excursions. In summary, we have agreed to most of the proposals without comment, because AusALPA was able to have a substantial input into the development of the revised policy. Under the proposal, all certified airports with sealed runways (approximately 330) will be included, not just the controlled ones, which was the original proposal (2022). The amended regulations have been drafted so that this can be achieved without unnecessary burden or expense especially to the smaller aerodromes. Read more>> Comments are closed.
