Flygplan har kraschat utanför Umeå – nio personer döda (2019-07-14)

Säkerhetsrekommendationer EASA rekommenderas att:
- Överväga att införa en formell utbildning för piloter som bedriver flygningar inom fallskärmsoperationer (se avsnitt 2.7). (RL 2020:08 R1)
- Se över rutinerna för godkännanden av massa- och balansunderlag vid certifiering av luftfartyg godkända för fallskärmsoperationer (se avsnitt 2.6.3). (RL 2020:08 R2)


Transportstyrelsen rekommenderas att:
- I sin tillsynsverksamhet verka för att ändamålsenliga lastinstruktioner eller motsvarande finns och tillämpas vid flygningar inom fallskärmsoperationer (se avsnitt 2.8). (RL 2020:08 R3)
- Med hjälp av SFF vidta åtgärder i syfte att säkerställa att licensierade fallskärmshoppare har tillräckliga kunskaper om luftfartygs massa och balans och flygoperativa konsekvenser vid förflyttning i luftfartyget och att piloten/befälhavaren får det stöd som är nödvändigt för att de regler som gäller för flygningen upprätthålls (se avsnitt 2.9).
