Safety Reporting

Fly EPT Portugal has a 'non-punitive' safety reporting policy.  

We promote a no blame, just culture

ANYONE is encouraged to report ANYTHING about ANY subject that they believe represents a safety risk.

Our Safety Policy Statement

Voluntary Reporting of Safety events 

Purpose

Voluntary reporting aims to be non-punitive and is confidential, if the reporter chooses to be. 

Here you can report safety related incidents and accidents. 

You should submit an aviation safety report if, while at the airport or operating a Fly EPT Portugal aircraft, you:

• Have witnessed or were involved in a reported or unreported occurrence, incident or accident
• Have information related to safety hazards.
• Know of an unsafe situation(s)

If you have witnessed the above, continue to read and learn how to report the safety issue. 

What is a safety event?

A reportable safety event in relation to an aircraft means:

"An incident which endangers or which, if not corrected, would endanger an aircraft, its occupants or any other person"

What is an Occurrence?

‘Occurrence’ means any safety-related event which endangers or which, if not corrected or addressed, could endanger an aircraft, its occupants or any other person and includes in particular an accident or serious incident.

If you would like to report any Safety concerns you encounter airside at the airport, or while operating the aircraft, please fill in a an Occurrence Report Form and email to:

• Near-misses;
• Evasive action taken;
• Bird strikes
• Airspace incidents/infringements; and
• Other basic environmental information

Mandatory Occurrence Reports

While we have a voluntary reporting scheme, there are how, however, some events that, regardless, they MUST be reported within 72 hours to the regulatory authority

The following is a list of examples of occurrences that MUST be reported immediately by licenced pilots.

Mandatory reports can be filed on the Voluntary Occurrence Report Form
