Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Teaching novice pilots to fly is inherently dangerous as these students necessarily taxi, fly and fuel aircraft by themselves. This paper describes how a particular Canadian flight school integrated a Safety Assurance Case into its operations to justify the claim that the school’s processes were adequately safe. Incident reports were then used as “defeaters” of the Safety Case argument and the Safety Case was used to generate a significant part of the school’s Safety Management System (SMS). Treating incident reports as “defeaters” to challenge claims and evidence in the Safety Case was particularly useful: considera-tion of each defeater gave rise to corrective actions and, by this means, the Safety Case was continually updated as processes changed. This ensured that the flight school’s procedures could be kept up-to-date and relevant.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
