some are interested:
For those that don't know, NASA has established an
Aviaition Safety Reporting System (ASRS) to identify problems
in the aviation system which require correction. The
information is submitted by pilots, controllers, ground
crew members, etc. (anonymously, if desired) via special
forms available from NASA. This information is maintainted
in a database, and is used to determine corrective actions
and advisories where appropriate. For more detailed
information on the program, refer to FAA Advisory Circular
OO-46C. FAR 91.57 prohibits reports filed with NASA from
being used for FAA enforcement purposes (although reporting
an incident via ASRS does not release anyone from possible
prosecution, either).
Anyone requesting it can receive a free subscription to the
regular bulletin of the ASRS - "Callback". It contains an
overview of recent submissions, usually highlighting one or two
areas of concern, with excerpts from related submissions.
There is a concentration on airline related matters, but topics
directly and indirectly of concern to GA are covered as well.
This program has been in place for several years, and "Callback"
always makes for interesting reading.
For a supply of blank forms and to subscribe to "Callback",
