AMC1 SPA.HEMS.151 Aircraft tracking system ED Decision 2023/007/R GENERAL (a) The operator should track and monitor HEMS flights from take-off to landing. (b) The operator should establish a detailed procedure describing how the aircraft tracking system is to be monitored, what actions are to be taken if a deviation or anomaly has been detected, and when those actions are to be taken. OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE (c) The procedure should take into account the following aspects: (1) the outcome of the risk assessment made when the frequency of position reports was defined; (2) the local environment of the intended operations; and (3) the interface with the operator’s emergency response plan. (d) Aircraft tracking data should be recorded on the ground and retained for at least 48 h. Following an accident or a serious incident subject to investigation, the data should be retained for at least 30 days, and the operator should be capable of providing a copy of this data without delay. *[applicable from 25 May 2024 — ED Decision 2023/007/R]* AMC1 SPA.HEMS.151 Aircraft tracking system ED Decision 2023/007/R GENERAL (a) The operator should track and monitor HEMS flights from take-off to landing.
