BARS Program – Stage 2

The Flight Safety Foundation is updating the BARS Program to further advance global aviation safety for contracted Aircraft Operators based on industry feedback and data gathered from the Audit Companies.

From 1 January 2018, the BARS Stage 2 Program will offer two auditing registration streams Comprehensive Audits and Core Audits. These will extend the evaluation of implementation and deliver greater flexibility on audit fees and requirements to better address the diverse assessment needs for Aircraft Operators.

The Comprehensive Audit stream will provide an enhanced level of recognition and evaluation for Operators. The Core Audit stream will allow Aircraft Operators to remain in the BARS Program at a reduced level of commitment.
