IFALPA (International Federation of Air Line Pilot’s Associations) merupakan suatu federasi bagi asosiasi pilot dalam lingkup internasional. Organisasi ini telah lahir sejak April 1948 pada konferensi di asosiasi pilot di London, Inggris dan banyak berkutat dalam menangani berbagai permasalahan penerbangan secara internasional. Dalam kegiatannya IFALPA banyak berinteraksi dengan ICAO sebagai badan spesialis penerbangan dari PBB. Untuk lebih detilnya, mungkin ekstrak dari laman http://ifalpa.org ini bisa mempersingkat pengenalan kita.

 

IFALPA History

Shortly after World War II, the United Nations Organization came into being and soon gave birth to several specialised agencies, one of which was the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). The fact that ICAO was to make decisions on aviation policy without pilot representation immediately began to interest several pilots’ Associations. Airline pilots begun to realise that they were citizens of the world in many respects; their daily work took them across the boundaries of many countries, and they were often dependent upon distant municipalities or States to provide them with the facilities necessary for their personal safety and that of their passengers. They became, therefore, vitally concerned with national and international affairs related to aviation.

To exercise some control over these forces, pilots had to put themselves into a position of showing determined leadership, in aviation and to achieve this they had to organise on an international basis. This was the reason for the birth of IFALPA in April of 1948 during a conference of pilots’ associations held in London for the express purpose of providing a formal means for the airline pilots of the world to interact with ICAO.

The belief then was that the unique perspective of pilots operating in scheduled flying would be of critical benefit to the creation and adaptation of ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) through which ICAO regulates international civil aviation. This belief holds true today backed up by more than 60 years of experience. Today, IFALPA numbers over 100 Member Associations and represents in excess of 100,000 pilots from around the world.

 

What We Do

1. Influencing ICAO

Virtually every part of the Operating Specifications of ICAO has been influenced to some degree by IFALPA pilot representatives. Our contribution may be as obvious as drafting entire sections of an Annex which is subsequently adopted, or as subtle as prevailing in an argument for or against a proposal in one of the many ICAO Technical Panels. In either case, the end result is the same. The continuing input of Line Pilots brings reality and balance to what can, at times, be the intensely political and economic process of drafting operating conditions for the airlines of the world. When procedural change does or does not happen, it is significant for aviation safety. Equally, when a technological solution for a persistent problem is finally mandated, safety is improved. In both instances, IFALPA pilots will have been involved for many hours, presenting and advocating the Air Line Pilot point of view.

2. ANC Observer Status

IFALPA and IATA (International Air Transport Association) are the only organizations granted permanent observer status to the ICAO Air Navigation Commission (ANC). In terms of significance, this is one of the major accomplishments of IFALPA. Among the many activities of IFALPA, the one most familiar to our members is our accident investigation and support work. When an accident occurs, the accident investigation expertise of IFALPA is quickly brought into play. Both investigation and representation skills are frequently required, particularly if the flight crew has survived the accident. All pilots benefit by ensuring that all the factors underlying the accident are properly identified and resolved. If properly done, each accident investigation can result in significant improvements to aviation safety. Experience has shown that the involvement of properly trained and experienced Line Pilot investigators early in the investigation process is essential to a full and complete investigation and analysis.

3. Co-operation between Member Associations

Positive co-operation between Member Associations in times of need continues to be an invaluable benefit of IFALPA membership. Many examples of this strength occur on a regular basis with IFALPA heading up teams of Incident and Accident Specialists, or giving other assistance, while providing these services at a moment’s notice.

4. Criminal Prosecution

At the same time, a different set of IFALPA representatives have attempted to assist flight crew members who have been involved in an accident and face criminal, regulatory or disciplinary action as a result of an accident. The ability of the various Member Associations to provide assistance post-accident to their fellow IFALPA members may be considered one of the greatest benefits of membership in IFALPA to the average Line Pilot.

 

IFALPA Major Accomplisments

1. Centreline Approach Lighting

In 1953, ICAO adopted a set of standards for centerline approach lighting developed by an IFALPA pilot.

2. Cockpit Instrumentation

In 1955, as a result of an accident investigation, a Line Pilot was instrumental in the development of instrument comparators. A year on, the IFALPA Cockpit Standardisation Study Group adopted the “Basic T” instrument layout as its policy and convinced ICAO to make the design a worldwide standard for cockpit instrumentation layout. 

3. Hijacking & Carriage of Dangerous Goods

As early as 1960, IFALPA was leading the industry in concern over aircraft hijacking and the carriage of dangerous goods. Obviously, these two subjects are still at the forefront of IFALPA’s concerns and continue to demand close attention. When dealing with such issues IFALPA are able to act in cooperation with industry and government. 

4. Aircraft Manufacturer Relationships

IFALPA enjoys excellent relationships with Airbus, Boeing and Embraer and has had significant input into the design and modification of the newer products – a tradition which really goes back to the DC-8 introduction and continues with IFALPA’s input into the A380, EMB190 and B-787 aircraft. Representatives of the manufacturers are regular attendees at IFALPA technical committee meetings, where give-and-take on operation of the various models is encouraged for the benefit of all.

5. Aerodrome Signage

On the subject of airports, the signage seen around the world today is largely the product of an IFALPA development project which was ultimately adopted by ICAO as the international standard. This standard was a quantum improvement in aids to navigation while taxiing and undoubtedly has prevented many a ground collision caused by disorientation on the airport surface.

6. Extended Range Operations

IFALPA has worked with both European and North American regulators and manufacturers to develop comprehensive standards for Extended Range Operations for both twin engine aircraft and, more recently, all aircraft operating over remote Polar Regions. 

7. RVSM & ACAS

IFALPA was fully involved in the initial implementation of Reduced Vertical Separation Minima (RVSM) in the North Atlantic, and the subsequent implementation by Eurocontrol in domestic European airspace. To address the risks of mid-air collisions, IFALPA has long advocated installation of ACAS equipment and mandatory procedures for both pilots and controllers when a Resolution Advisory is issued by the equipment. 

8. Runway Incursions

The same can be said of ongoing efforts to minimize the risk of collisions on the airport surface, commonly called Runway Incursions. In addition to airport design, operating procedures and future technology, IFALPA has focused on airport capacity enhancement procedures which seemed to greatly increase the risk of collision by the reduction of safety margins inherent in the procedure design. 

9. Aircraft Performance

In the field of performance, IFALPA has consistently injected the views of the pilot at all points and over a sustained period. In the 1950s operators failed to allow fully for the excessive effect of wet runways on jet aircraft. This effect was not satisfactorily compensated for by the discounting of reverse thrust credit and the result was an undue number of landing overruns or aborts on wet runways. It took from the 1950s until the 1990s to get wet-runway accountability universally into State airworthiness regulations. That it did get there was certainly due in large measure to IFALPA. 

10. Approach and Runway Lighting

From the 1950s, progress in the field of lighting was steady and, to a large extent, made under conditions in full cooperation between IFALPA, IATA and the ICAO States. IFALPA contributed to these achievements step-by-step; from approach-lighting, to visual approach indicators, to narrow-gauge runway lights and, finally, to taxiway lighting. 

11. ILS

What has been said regarding approach lighting can certainly be repeated in the case of the instrument landing system (ILS). That this guidance system was eventually installed at most international airports was, at least in part, due to vigorous worldwide campaigns by IFALPA. 

12. Procedural Matters

IFALPA’s achievements in the operational field, though involving less conspicuous campaigns than those mentioned above, were nevertheless very significant. For example, IFALPA contributed greatly in developing procedures for co-ordinating responsibilities as between pilot and radar controller, and also drafting what eventually became the standard format for radiotelephone reporting. IFALPA secured, via ICAO, the systemised allocation of alpha-numeric call signs. 

13. Security

After the events of September 11th 2001, IFALPA became a founding member of the Global Aviation Security Action Group (GASAG), an industry group established to co-ordinate the global aviation industry’s inputs to achieve an effective world-wide security system and ensure public confidence in civil aviation. GASAG was instrumental in providing a consolidated view on aviation security improvements, in particular regarding cockpit doors, Air Marshalls and training issues. IFALPA also actively participates in the ICAO AVSEC Panel and related working groups to develop amendments to ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) for Annex 17 (Security) and the AVSEC Manual. IFALPA members advise National and Regional Authorities on the development of operational and training guidelines in aviation security. 

14. Airport Planning

The building of Hong Kong’s airport at Chek Lap Kok (CLK) was an opportunity for IFALPA to provide input into the planning of one of the world’s major new airports. The Federation worked hard for its say and, in doing so, highlighted many of its operational concerns worldwide. IFALPA made significant design inputs into the airport, including renaming the stands, apron markings and visual aid signs, and also had input into CLK’s airport docking guidance system. IFALPA influenced operational decisions at CLK through its involvement on a variety of groups and sub-groups, including: the New Airport Safety Committee (NASC), the Visual Aids Working Group (VAWG) and Windshear and Turbulence Warning System Working Group. IFALPA has also influenced airports elsewhere, with extensive work carried out by Committees and local pilot Associations in relation to Amsterdam’s Schipol and Germany’s Munich airports and, more recently, at Bangkok’s new airport. 

15. ‘Critically Deficient’ Airspace

IFALPA, in late 1996, publicly made an issue on safety in the skies over Africa. This move spurred an international effort to improve safety and modernise the management of African airspace. In response to the concerns highlighted by the South African pilots, IFALPA formed a European/African (EUR/AFI) working group, which tasked a group of carefully selected pilots to formally record any and all shortcomings and deficiencies encountered during operations in African airspace. What evolved was a comprehensive database of general, enroute, terminal area and aerodrome problems that existed in Africa.

3. Aircraft Design & Operation Committee (ADO)

Core Activity

To improve air safety on a worldwide basis by influencing the design of air transport aircraft, their components, their performance and operation and to improve the working environment of the individual airline pilot, considering environmental aspects.

The task of the ADO Committee is to:

• Detect, identify and monitor areas of development, where input is required to influence the design of technology and/or procedures, to ensure a safe operating environment for the airline pilot community, using the experience and expertise of its members.
• Develop Policies and Policy Statements on these items, associated with the design and operation of aircraft used in international commercial operations, as broadly defined by the contents of ICAO Annexes 6 and 8, and related ICAO documents, to be presented to the respective regulating bodies, authorities and operators, as well as to the interested public.
• Liaise with aircraft manufacturers, system designers and engineers, as well as scientific and regulating bodies, to enhance their understanding of the view and requirements of the airline pilots to improve the safety and operational effectiveness of international commercial aviation, considering the environment.
• Develop proactive general statements and position papers for engineers, scientific and regulating bodies, manufacturers and Member Associations on present and future developments to be made available for the public.
• Enhance the expertise of the members of the committee and their respective Member Associations by relaying information from scientific, engineering and manufacturing bodies.
• Enhance the general standing of IFALPA, the airline pilots and their associations within the general public through the effort to improve air safety worldwide, as the stakeholder for the travelling public.

 

4. Aerodrome & Ground Environment Committee (AGE)

The Committee’s Role

The Aerodrome and Ground Environment (AGE) Committee is primarily tasked with providing a liaison between the Airports community, IFALPA, and the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).

The primary focus of our work is to ensure that airports around the world adhere to ICAO Annex 14 (Aerodrome Standards) and to provide input to ICAO on the improvement of the Annex 14 Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) as the industry evolves.

Our Mission

In order to provide a policy platform from which we can assess the requirements to update ICAO’s Annex 14, we have developed our own IFALPA Annex 14, detailing areas where we feel that improvement is needed.  Our mission is to lobby ICAO and the ICAO contracting States to implement our requirements, provide input at the individual airport level on improvements, and to inform our membership where there is a difference between what we advocate as the minimum level and what is currently being provided.

Our Relevance

Many States continue to file differences to the ICAO Annex 14 SARPs and as such our work is required and timely.  As new technologies emerge, such as Visual Docking Guidance Systems (VDGS), Engineered Materials Arresting Systems (EMAS) or Runway Status Lights (RWSL) we will work with the developers of such systems, to ensure that the needs of the aviation community are safely met, and if there are areas of non-compliance, that these are notified to the member associations so that additional cautions can be developed.

 

5. Air Traffic Services Committee (ATS)

IFALPA monitors the Air Traffic Management (ATM) developments mainly through its ATS Committee. The standing members of the Committee meet twice yearly and actively represent the Federation at various forums in ICAO, Eurocontrol, EASA (the European Aviation Safety Agency), FAA, and RTCA participating as subject matter experts.

Terms of Reference

• To prepare and discuss working papers which review, modify and amend IFALPA policy concerning all aspects of communication, navigation, surveillance and air traffic management (CNS/ATM) operations performed by air traffic service providers
• To prepare and discuss working papers dealing with the provision of Meteorological information for aeroplanes and with the provision and operation of Search and Rescue services
• To provide expert advice on air traffic, meteorological and search and rescue issues upon request to the Executive Board, other Committees, Advisory Groups, and interested external parties
• To contribute to the development of relevant ICAO Standards, Recommended Practices, and associated guidance materials

The ATS committee provides oversight on the following documents ensuring that the additions and proposed amendments are harmonized and ensure global interoperability;

• ICAO Annex 2, Rules of the Air
• ICAO Annex 3, Meteorology
• ICAO Annex 4, Aeronautical Charts for Use by the Pilot
• ICAO Annex 5, Units of Measurement
• ICAO Annex 10, Communications
• ICAO Annex 11, Air Traffic Services
• ICAO Annex 12, Search and Rescue
• ICAO Annex 15, Aeronautical Information Services
• ICAO PANS ATM (Doc. 4444) 

Mission
The mission of the ATS Committee is to improve aviation safety worldwide, to promote a single level of safety to the highest standards possible, applying the professional experience and expertise of the members of the committee. Develop global harmonized policies and positions and to promote the adoption of such policies by ICAO, the respective Regional Body. 

Coordination

The ATS Committee works very closely with IFALPA’s Member Associations through either individual Member Associations or regional groups such as ECA and ALPA International who in turn represent the global interests of their pilots in Europe and North America.

ICAO has published and is working on implementing global standards for future ATM in the Global Air Navigation Plan. These components for change are defined in the Air System Block Updates (ASBUs). The technologies, procedures, and regulations need be implemented on a common global basis by the respective regions. These changes need to not only improve safety but deliver operational improvements to accommodate projected traffic growth in aviation.

The ATS committee acts as a common coordination arena for the other IFALPA committees such as ADO, AGE, HUPER, and others to insure the entire pilot perspective is covered in these changes. They also act to be the international coordination between regional Member Associations’ work efforts where possible. For example, the European Cockpit Association’s work with the SESAR- JU should be harmonized with the work of the Air Line Pilots Association- Intl and their work with the FAA’s NEXTGEN program. The South Pacific’s work through AusALPA, NZALPA, and other MA’s needs to be harmonized with their counterparts in the northern hemisphere.

The overarching IFALPA document describing the common principles are found in the Future of Air Navigation v3.0 – 11POS03

 

6. Dangerous Goods Committee (DGC)

Mission

The IFALPA Dangerous Goods Committee promotes the safe transportation of dangerous goods by air throughout the world.  Articles and substances capable of posing a risk to heath, safety, property or the environment are regulated as dangerous goods, and may be carried safely only when properly declared, packaged, labelled, and when the Pilot in Command is notified. IFALPA seeks to maintain the highest regulatory standards for the transport of declared dangerous goods, as well as preventing undeclared dangerous goods from being carried on aircraft.

Role

The Dangerous Goods Committee is composed of pilot volunteers from member associations throughout the world.  These committee members represent IFALPA at the United Nations (UN) Sub Committee of Experts on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, at the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) Dangerous Goods Panel, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) Dangerous Goods Board, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the World Health Organization (WHO) and various other governmental and industry events worldwide.  The Committee Chairman is one of 17 voting members of the ICAO Dangerous Goods Panel.

 

7. Helicopters Committee (HEL)

The IFALPA Helicopter Committee (HELCOM) focuses on all aspects of rotary wing related matters and advises the Executive Board on these issues, as well working in close co-operation with all of the other standing committees within the Federation. Commercial Helicopter operations around the world cover a wide variety of tasks from the transportation of offshore and onshore personnel, flight training and corporate work, to the more challenging search & rescue operations, police and emergency medical services, as well as advanced aerial work such as under slung load operations, crop spraying and power line inspection/repair.

Helicopter Accident Level

The accident level in helicopter transportation is still significantly greater than that found in fixed wing operations, and although the overall rate is slowly declining, it continues to be a major cause for concern. Among the reasons for this disparity, as identified by the International Helicopter Safety Team (IHEST), are a lack of training, an indigent safety culture and poor management. The goal of the HELCOM is to reduce this accident level by improving all areas of helicopter flight safety, and this remains our primary commitment.

Pilot Associations

The active members of today’s Committee come from Member Associations representing Helicopter Operations from around the world, and these pilot associations, via their technical committees, work continuously to improve air safety. Our Member Associations commonly have the same goal as most operators, having the belief that creating successful, stable companies with robust safety initiatives, is the best way forward for all concerned. The ‘grass roots’ voice of pilots can often bring a reality and balance to the difficult process of creating regulations which are intended to be workable, economically viable, and most importantly, deliver meaningful improvements to air safety.

Our Work

The HELCOM currently holds one main meeting per year, with the work of the committee being focused on ICAO in support of IFALPA’s representation on the Air Navigation Commission. In addition to this, we have representation on a number of influential rotary wing working groups/organisations and work closely with our colleagues on the European Cockpit Association Helicopter Working Group. Active pilot participation is paramount to us maintaining our commitment to make rotary wing operations as safe as is humanly possible.

Di saat awal terbentuknya organisasi hal yang sering menjadi kendala adalah mengenai bentuk dari organisasi. Visi dan misi yang telah dicanangkan seringkali tidak bisa diejawantahkan dalam satu kali kepengurusan. Visi pasti akan menjangkau jauh ke depan dan tidak akan bisa tercapai dalam sekejap tetapi melalui perjalanan yang cukup panjang.

Bagaimana dengan organisasi profesi seperti yang sudah dimiliki saat ini? Sebenarnya hampir sama tetapi memang permasalahan yang dihadapi sekarang sudah cukup kompleks dan terhitung terlambat untuk memulainya. Tetapi seperti pepatah ” Lebih baik terlambat daripada tidak sama sekali “. Kemudian bentuk organisasi seperti apa yang diharapkan saat ini?

Tidak ada salahnya jika kembali melihat pada permasalahan yang harus cepat ditangani dibandingkan hanya dengan merefleksikan angan – angan dan ambisi dalam melihat bentuk organisasi. Tidak juga hanya mencontoh dari organisasi di luar negeri yang sudah ada tetapi juga harus lebih inovatif dan solutif karena disinilah yang akan menjadi  letak keunggulan komparatif pilot Indonesia dibanding dengan pilot asing yang saat ini juga menjadi isu utama akan keberadaan mereka di negeri ini.

Mungkin akan terkesan pragmatis jika melihat kepada masalah kontemporer saat ini, tetapi inilah fakta yang harus  dihadapi. Dalam pandangan kami beberapa masalah yang perlu penanganan secara cepat dan tidak terbatas pada :

1. Konsolidasi organisasi secara menyeluruh.
2. Keselamatan dan keamanan penerbangan.
3. Membanjirnya pilot asing ke dalam maskapai penerbangan nasional.
4. Pengangguran pilot lokal yang semakin meningkat.
5. Kebijakan, peraturan ataupun undang – undang yang bertentangan dengan kaidah penerbangan.
6. Hubungan profesi pilot dengan maskapai penerbangan nasional.

Dari masalah yang sedang mencuat tersebut mungkin bisa  diambil benang merahnya jika semua itu terkait dengan aspek dasar pada organisasi profesi pilot yaitu : Safety and Security, Legal, Technical and Social. Jika merujuk pada aspek tersebut maka departemen yang terbentuk akan menjadi ramping dan efisien karena dari semua departemen itu memiliki keterkaitan dan bisa saling bekerja sama. Kemudian dari tiap  departemen mempunyai komite yang terkait dengan tipe operasi yang ada saat ini.

Bentuk dasar organisasi seperti ini tidak tertutup kemungkinan untuk berubah sesuai dinamika di masa depan. Hanya perlu menambahkan departemen atau komite yang dinilai perlu untuk menjawab dinamika yang terjadi. Selain itu organisasi memerlukan juga orang – orang yang handal, berdedikasi dan memiliki integritas untuk duduk dalam organisasi. Siapa lagi kalau bukan dari semua anggota sesama profesi pilot ?

Dalam masa awal kepengurusan organisasi yang akan terbentuk ini tidak ketinggalan juga peran aktif dan kontribusi dari semua anggotanya untuk kelancaran roda organisasi dan ikut mengawasi jalannnya organisasi karena organisasi adalah milik bersama semua anggota, bukan milik pribadi ataupun golongan.

“Moving Forward”

Teror bom pada 14/01/2016 di Jakarta yang menelan korban jiwa sangat meresahkan masyarakat saat ini. Ternyata apa yang selama ini menjadi ancaman menjadi sebuah kenyataan dan para pelaku teror ini tidak mengenal tempat dan waktu.

Dunia penerbangan nasional selama ini pun masih rentan dengan adanya berbagai ancaman bom. Tercatat selama tahun 2015 ada 10 kasus ancaman bom terhadap penerbangan. Dari sekian banyaknya kasus itu ternyata masih banyak ditemukan jika hal itu masih berupa upaya pengancaman dengan motif yang tidak mendasar. Sebagian besar ancaman terjadi karena faktor keisengan atau faktor emosional dari pengguna jasa penerbangan.

Demikian data ancaman bom sepanjang tahun 2015 :

1. 23 April 2015 Lion Air JT-250 rute CGK – PDG di Bandara Soekarno – Hatta, Jakarta.
2. 29 April 2015 Batik Air ID-6870 rute CGK – PLM di Bandara Soekarno – Hatta, Jakarta.
3. 1 Mei 2015 Lion Air JT-353 rute PDG – CGK di Bandara Minangkabau, Padang.
4. 4 Mei 2015 Lion Air JT-973 rute BTH – KNO di Bandara Hang Nadim, Batam.
5. 7 Mei 2015 Lion Air JT-379 rute BTH – KNO di Bandara Hang Nadim, Batam.
6. 13 Mei 2015 Lion Air JT-330 rute CGK – PLM di Bandara Soekarno – Hatta, Jakarta.
7. 30 September 2015 Citilink QG-143 rute KNO – CGK di Bandara Kualanamu, Medan.
8. 26 November 2015 Batik Air ID-6179 rute AMQ – CGK di Bandara Pattimura, Ambon.
9. 2 Desember 2015 Wings Air IW- 1504 rute AMQ – LUV di Bandara Pattimura, Ambon.
10. 26 Desember 2015 Batik Air ID-6541 rute KOE – CGK di Bandara El Tari, Kupang.

Dari sekian banyaknya kasus ancaman bom tersebut memang tidak satupun yang menjadi kasus ledakan bom yang sebenarnya. Bagaimana kita menyikapi hal seperti ini dari sudut pandang profesi kita? Ancaman seperti ini yang terjadi dalam rentang waktu yang cukup pendek dan frekuensi yang cukup sering bisa mempengaruhi faktor psikologis manusia. Bisa saja hal ini terjadi dengan kesengajaan agar kita menjadi bosan mendengarnya dan lengah terhadap ancaman yang sebenarnya dan dijalankan dengan cara terorganisir.

Tidak tertutup kemungkinan para pelaku teror akan mencoba melakukan ancaman atau peledakan pada suatu penerbangan. Sudah semestinya ada langkah – langkah strategis dan komprehensif dari semua pihak yang berkepentingan baik dari pemerintah, operator, otoritas bandara, penegak hukum dan kita sebagai ujung tombak misi penerbangan. Semua potensi yang bisa menjadi celah dari hal yang terkecil sudah semestinya diwaspadai dan ditangani dengan baik sebelum bereskalasi menjadi hal yang jauh lebih besar. Harus dilakukan evaluasi mengenai prosedur keamanan penerbangan yang sudah ada agar bisa mencapai sesuatu yang ideal dan teraman.

Contoh kasus untuk peledakan bom nyata pada pesawat dan fasilitas lain penerbangan sudah cukup banyak, mari kita kilas balik sejenak contoh kasus-kasus peledakan bom yang terjadi di dunia penerbangan :

• Pan Am Flight 830 11 Agustus 1982 ,Boeing 747. Bom yang meledak tersebut dipasang oleh  Mohammed Rashed yang terhubung oleh grup teroris dari Palestina.
• Gulf Air Flight 771 23 September 1983, meledak oleh bom pada saat pendaratan menuju Abu Dhabi International Airport, bom dipasang di kompartemen bagasi.
• Pan Am Flight 103/Lockerbie,Boeing 747. Korban jiwa 270 orang, pada 21 December 1988, pesawat hancur oleh bom PETN.
• Metrojet Flight 9268, Korban jiwa 224 orang. Di daerah Sinai Peninsula, Mesir pada 31 Oktober 2015. Bom diklaim dilakukan oleh ISIL.

Sebagai profesi pilot sudah jelas kita harus bisa memberikan kontribusi kepada pihak berwenang untuk meningkatkan faktor keamanan penerbangan ini. Jika suatu penerbangan terancam bukan hanya pesawat atau penumpangnya saja yang terancam tetapi kita sendiri juga terancam. Dalam menjalankan tugas keseharian kita sebagai pilot dalam kerangka keamanan penerbangan ada baiknya kita melakukan hal – hal seperti :

1. Mereview  prosedur ancaman bom, terutama strategi yang akan kita lakukan dalam keadaan darurat jika bom ditemukan di pesawat. Secara umum jika bom ditemukan di dalam pesawat langkah yang bisa kita lakukan seperti :
   • Tetap tenang dan jangan panik.
   • Koordinasi dengan pihak ATC dan operator.
   • Persiapkan proses disembarkasi yang cepat dan lancar (bila pesawat pada posisi parkiran pesawat).
   • Posisikan pesawat pada area isolasi (bila berada di taxiway).
   • Turunkan ketinggian pesawat secara perlahan untuk meminimalkan perubahan tekanan udara dan atur suhu di dalam pesawat sestabil mungkin (bila pesawat sudah mengudara).
   • Lakukan pencarian lokasi bom dan pastikan lokasi ditemukannya bom tidak bergeser atau tersentuh.
   • Matikan sumber kelistrikan di dekat area bom jika memungkinkan.Pindahkan lokasi penumpang sejauh mungkin dari posisi bom.
   • Persiapkan langkah pemindahan bom ke area Least Risk Bomb Location (umumnya di pintu kanan belakang) dan lakukan teknik untuk mengurangi efek dari ledakan jika proses pendaratan tidak bisa segera dilakukan.
   • Setelah disembarkasi selesai maka posisikan penumpang dan kru sejauh mungkin dari pesawat, paling tidak 100 meter dari pesawat.
   • Koordinasikan penanganan bom dengan pihak yang berwenang.
2. Persiapan mental dan pikiran dalam menghadapi dan mengatasi situasi darurat dalam penerbangan. Tujuan utama dari mengatasi keadaan darurat ini adalah untuk keselamatan, keamanan dan perlindungan maksimum bagi penumpang, kru dan aset perusahaan.
3. Meningkatkan kewaspadaan dari titik awal proses penerbangan. Lakukan pengamatan terhadap hal – hal yang bisa menjadi potensi dari lolosnya pemasukan bom ke dalam pesawat. Tingkatkan kewaspadaan pada berbagai lini yang terkait dengan operasional penerbangan.
4. Memberikan briefing dengan penekanan pada keberhasilan proses teamwork dalam mengangani potensi masalah yang bisa mengganggu penerbangan. Lakukan review prosedur kepada seluruh kru yang bertugas akan gugus tugas masing – masing dan tekankan pentingnya CRM dalam keberhasilan misi penerbangan.
5. Melakukan koordinasi dengan pihak terkait baik dari operator, otoritas atau penegak hukum bila menemukan hal – hal yang  mencurigakan. Laporkan segala potensi yang bisa membahayakan seperti penumpukan penumpang menjelang X-ray scan, prosedur body scan, area masuk terbatas atau hal lain yang berhubungan dengan pihak di luar juridiksi kita.
6. Tidak ketinggalan pula untuk berdoa demi keselamatan kita semua. Apapun usaha terbaik yang kita lakukan tidak terlepas dari kuasa Tuhan YME yang menentukan.

Mungkin hal – hal tersebut bisa membantu dalam kelancaran tugas penerbangan kita dalam konteks tercapainya keamanan penerbangan yang baik.

Menjelang kongres Ikatan Pilot Indonesia ini, dengan segala kerendahan hati perkenankan saya menyampaikan beberapa hal kepada rekan – rekan seprofesi sekalian.

Perjalanan kita bersama dalam naungan Ikatan Pilot Indonesia terbilang sangat singkat. Jatuh bangun usaha untuk menyatukan segenap pilot ternyata sudah membuahkan hasil. Jumlah keanggotaan yang sudah mencapai ribuan saat ini ditambah lagi dengan semangat donasi yang tinggi membuat kami cukup berbahagia. Ternyata usaha kita bersama tidak sia – sia!

Menuju kongres pertama kita inipun akan dilakukan pemilihan Dewan Ketua Ikatan Pilot Indonesia yang definitif untuk pertama kalinya. Pilihan calon sudah ditampilkan oleh pihak panitia. Sebagai salah satu calon saya sangat bersyukur karena saya dikelilingi para calon yang luar biasa dalam pandangan saya. Yakinkanlah kepada diri kita sendiri bahwa semua calon itu siap untuk mendedikasikan dirinya untuk masa depan Ikatan Pilot Indonesia.

Saatnya bagi kita semua untuk melepaskan pemikiran sektoral dan mulai menjatuhkan pilihan sesuai hati nurani. Tidak perlu lagi dukung – mendukung tetapi pilihanlah yang diperlukan. Mari kita lihat profil, visi misi dan program kerja dari para calon dan refleksikan kepada diri kita mana yang paling sesuai. Menang atau kalah bukan tujuan tetapi dukungan anda semua yang dibutuhkan oleh organisasi ini agar Ikatan Pilot Indonesia berjalan seperti yang kita harapkan bersama.

Pilihan dan kehadiran anda semua sangat diharapkan, bersama kita dukung siapapun yang terpilih untuk keberhasilan masa depan profesi pilot Indonesia. “Jayalah pilot Indonesia”.

Salam.

Perjalanan dunia penerbangan Indonesia sampai saat ini masih cukup memprihatinkan. Mulai dari masih banyaknya kecelakaan, Undang-Undang, Peraturan maupun Keputusan yang membelenggu profesi pilot. Ditambah lagi dengan variabel tantangan global baik itu MEA, Dewan ICAO maupun membanjirnya pilot asing ke Indonesia.

Langkah apa yang harus kita perbuat untuk menjawab itu semua? Haruskah kita berdiam diri dan menunggu langkah pemerintah, analis ataupun pengamat untuk menjawab masalah itu? Tentu jawabnya tidak. Dengan profesionalisme yang kita miliki sudah semestinya kita bisa turut menjawabnya. Kemudian, apakah kita harus berjalan sendiri – sendiri? Kembali lagi jawabnya adalah tidak. Kita harus mampu bersinergi dalam satu naungan yang memiliki legitimasi.

Dengan adanya Ikatan Pilot Indonesia ini sudah tepat waktunya bagi kita bergandengan tangan dan bergerak maju. Dengan bersatunya pilot Indonesia niscaya kita akan bisa maju bersama menuju penerbangan yang kita harapkan bersama. Apabila kita tidak bisa bersatu, niscaya kemunduran yang akan kita alami.

Siapapun pasti akan bergetar bila mendengar kata “bersatunya pilot Indonesia”. Akan terbersit banyak pertanyaan, apa yang akan kita lakukan? Mampukah kita membuktikannya? Dengan segala optimisme harus saya katakan bisa! Dengan segala kemampuan kita melakukan mitigasi, analisa, membuat solusi dan rencana aksi kita pasti bisa. Kita harus bisa, jika tidak maka bersiaplah untuk menghadapi kemunduran profesi pilot itu sendiri. Mungkin harus saya katakan disini “Bersatu atau mundur!”

Mana yang anda pilih saya serahkan kembali jawabannya ke hati nurani rekan – rekan sekalian.

Sepanjang tahun 2015 mungkin bisa dikatakan tahun yang kelam untuk profesi pilot. Kejadian demi kejadian berupa kecelakaan penerbangan berulang kali terjadi. Dalam catatan kami terjadi 11 peristiwa baik itu berupa insiden maupun aksiden sebagai berikut :

1. 11/01/2015 Trigana DHC6 di Enarotali , runway excursion.
2. 03/02/2015 Garuda ATR 72 di Bandara Lombok Praya, runway excursion, nose gear collapse.
3. 04/03/2015 Deraya ATP di Wamena, runway excursion on landing, gear collapse, broken wing.
4. 20/04/2015 Wings ATR 72 di Sumbawa Besar, 4.8G touchdown and go-around.
5. 02/06/2015 Garuda B737-800 di Makassar, overrun runway on landing.
6. 02/08/2015 Citilink A320 di Padang, runway excursion on landing.
7. 16/08/2015 Trigana ATR 42 di Oksibil, aircraft collided with terrain.
8. 28/08/2015 Cardig B737-300 di Wamena, main gear collapse on landing short of runway.
9. 02/10/2015 Aviastar DHC6 dekat Makassar, aircraft collided with terrain.
10. 06/11/2015 Batik B737-900 di Yogyakarta, overrun runway on landing.
11. 21/12/2015 Kalstar E195 di Kupang , overrun runway on landing.

Kecelakaan penerbangan masih demikian banyak terjadi yang berhubungan dengan profesi pilot. Apa saja faktor penyebabnya? Mengapa terjadi? Siapa yang harus bertanggung jawab? Dan masih akan ada banyak pertanyaan lainnya atas hal ini.

Pasti dibutuhkan suatu langkah yang komprehensif dari semua pemangku kepentingan di bidang penerbangan nasional untuk menanggulangi dan mencegah kejadian – kejadian ini terulang kembali. Sebelum kita melangkah ke lingkup yang lebih besar ada baiknya kita sebagai seorang pilot profesional melakukan penilaian kedalam atau “self assessment” akan faktor penting yang terkadang terlupakan karena rutinitas dari pekerjaan kita ini.

Mari kita melihat kembali kepada prinsip “Airmanship” yang sering kita dengar tetapi terkadang kita lupa maksud dari kata tersebut. “Airmanship is the consistent use of good judgment and well-develop skills to accomplish flight objective”(Tony Kern, 1996). “Airmanship” akan muncul berdasar dari : “Discipline”, “Skills”, “Proficiency”, “Knowledge”, “Sittuational Awareness” dan “Judgment”. Konsekuensi dari kurangnya “Airmanship” ini bisa memunculkan insiden atau aksiden.

Airmanship ini begitu penting bagi profesi kita, mencakup dari disiplin profesi kita sampai kepada pengambilan keputusan sewaktu menjalankan tugas penerbangan. Jika salah satu aspek tidak terpenuhi maka kita belum bisa dikatakan memiliki airmanship yang baik yang pada akhirnya akan menurunkan nilai profesionalitas kita sendiri.

Di tahun 2016 yang baru tiba ini tidak ada salahnya jika masing – masing dari kita memasukkan peningkatan airmanship ini dalam resolusi tahunan kita demi keselamatan penerbangan dan profesionalisme yang lebih baik sebagai seorang pilot bagi kita semua.

Pernahkah kita menyadari arti penting seorang pilot? Siapa sih pilot itu? Apa sih pilot itu? Dan masih akan banyak pertanyaan lainnya seputar pilot. Sejak awal pelatihan kita menjadi pilot masih ingatkah kita jika kita ditanamkan prinsip “kemandirian” secara terus menerus? Kita harus mampu menangani semua permasalahan operasional secara mandiri, secara individu tanpa ada ketergantungan.

Sesuai berjalannya waktu kemudian kita berkembang menjadi seorang pilot professional di berbagai jenis operasi penerbangan. Setiap dari kita pasti setuju bahwa seorang professional itu pasti akan loyal. Karena berbeda antara professional dan loyalis, seorang professional pasti akan loyal karena kemampuan dan integritasnya sementara seorang loyalis belum tentu dia professional karena dia harus loyal hanya untuk kelangsungan profesinya.

Sering diantara kita berkata jika pilot harus loyal kepada profesinya. Kemudian apa bentuk dari loyalitas kita terhadap profesi pilot ini? Apakah hanya dengan bekerja sesuai dengan SOP saja sudah cukup menjadikan kita professional? Ternyata tidak. Jika kita hanya berbuat seperti itu maka yang terjadi adalah kita tidak akan menjadi sesuatu yang berharga bagi masyarakat di sekitar kita. Ternyata ada hal lain yang harus kita perdalam dari profesi ini. Selama ini kita hanya tersenyum kecut jika banyak orang memandang kita hanya sebagai supir pesawat tanpa kita mampu menunjukkan jati diri profesi kita. Semua kompleksitas di profesi kita tidak akan dipahami oleh masyarakat umum sebagai sesuatu yang berharga karena kita belum mampu mempromosikan betapa berharganya profesi ini.

Masa depan kita semua berada di tangan kita semua. Jika berharap akan perbaikan maka perbaikan ini harus dimulai dari diri kita masing – masing, kemudian dari setiap individu disinergikan menjadi suatu kekuatan yang besar yang dapat melakukan perubahan untuk kita semua kearah yang lebih baik. Tanpa sinergi yang baik maka harapan kita akan menjadi sia – sia.

Hanya dengan sinergi kita bisa maju bersama dengan mengesampingkan batasan jabatan, pangkat, lintas perusahaan dan lintas negara. Sinergi ini yang kita butuhkan pada saat ini demi terbukanya jalan menuju penerbangan Indonesia yang lebih baik dan maju. Bukan karena saya atau anda atau kami atau kalian tetapi karena kita semua maka kita akan bisa menggapainya. Oleh karena itu ternyata “SAYA, ANDA, KAMI, KITA ADALAH PENTING UNTUK PROFESI PILOT”.

Mari kita semua bersatu padu memberikan kontribusi, karya dan sumbangsih kita sesuai kemampuan terbaik kita masing – masing untuk kemajuan profesi ini dimulai dari sekarang.

2. Ikatan Pilot Indonesia menghimbau kepada semua rekan seprofesi untuk mewaspadai dan menghindari penggunaan segala jenis psikotropika yang akan membahayakan keselamatan penerbangan baik dalam jangka waktu pendek maupun panjang.

“However, some drugs have the potential to significantly impair the user’s level of alertness, judgment, reaction time, or behavior, leading to transportation accidents (Avalos and others 2014; Roth and others 2014; Li, Brady, and Chen 2013)”.

Mari kita secara bersama – sama berpartisipasi secara aktif mengembangkan profesi kita yang terbebas dari psikotropika menuju masa depan penerbangan Indonesia yang lebih baik.
