AIRPORT SAFETY FOCUS

There have been reported incidents and observations involving colleagues using unsafe walking routes between the terminals, car parks, and places of work. Some of these incidents have involved walking through live vehicle lanes where moving barriers are in operation.

All colleagues have a collective responsibility to ensure their own safety by using safe walking routes and leading by example to avoid setting a poor precedent to other colleagues, visitors and passengers who may approach for assistance or follow colleagues towards main access and egress areas. – Always use designated routes and walkways provided.

– Always use designated pedestrian car park entrances/exits.

– Ensure you look both ways when crossing roads/forecourt area and avoid distractions such as using a mobile device.

– Remain vigilant of moving vehicles and moving barriers.

– Be aware of changes to safe walking routes and follow any diversion pedestrian signage in place.

– If you observe anyone using unsafe routes take the opportunity to guide them towards safe walking routes, and where possible preventing them from doing so in the first instance.

– Don’t ignore safety barriers in signage in place for your protection.

– Always ask for help if you are unsure of the correct route. Please report any safety concerns

or incidents to the Manchester Health and Safety Team via Rivo the online reporting system, alternatively via [email protected]

SAFETY INFORMATION: SAFE WALKING ROUTES

In the peak of the heat last month, Sean Wismann (Airfield Operations Graduate) organised for a water bottle refill station installed in the Terminal 1 baggage hall (see map). The unit will provide chilled filtered water for all those who wish to use it and is provided free of charge by MAG. In an aim to reduce wastage, cups will not be provided so please re-use your empty bottles.

A special thanks goes to DHL Aviation for suggesting the location and to Broderick’s for their swift action. If the machine develops a fault at any point, please contact Broderick’s using the number on the side of the machine and they will assist you. Thank you and stay hydrated everyone!

Historically at Manchester Airport, aircraft have been de-iced while parked on their current stand after completion of ground operations when all bags are loaded, all passengers are on-board, and all doors are closed.

The frequent travellers amongst us will be familiar with a de-icing treatment during taxi-out to the runway. De-icing away from the aircraft stand is known as “remote de-icing” and has seemingly grown in popularity over the last couple of years.

Manchester Airport, in collaboration with Menzies Aviation, EasyJet and Jet2.com, trialled the concept of a remote de-icing pad for Winter 2019/2020. The remote de-icing pad test took place on the Wednesday 31st July 2019 during first wave operations.

The remote trial was carried out between intermediate taxiway hold points (IHP) Bravo 4 (B4) and Bravo 5 (B5). The remote de-icing pad can accommodate 2 x Code-C aircraft; consisting of 1 aircraft being de-iced while 1 aircraft is in the standby position.

Air Traffic Control can use adjacent taxiways to hold additional aircraft and/or circulate

aircraft around taxiway islands to efficiently maximise flow to the de-icing pad. In order to effectively de-ice an aircraft many aspects that must be assessed.

Remote de-icing pads are capable of treating multiple aircraft each hour including the points of peak demand. The operation for the de-icing service provider is centralised and therefore compact and efficient. Advantages of a remote pads include that they are closer to the departure runways and reduce the time between de-icing treatment and take-off which will create a larger window for a one step operation and increase on time performance.

EMERGENCY EXERCISE – NORTH AIR

GOLD WE ARE SAFETY AWARD

FOD FOR A FLAKE

On Friday 26th July, North Air held an Emergency Exercise on Stand 71R at 11:00 to mock a fuel vent from a Jet 2 aircraft involving the contamination of our Operator and an embarking passenger.

This was to identify our response time, efficiency and to identify areas for improvement within our practices. We were also assisted by the Fire Department who used this exercise for their own training. A constructive talk was held on site after the exercise had taken place to discuss each other’s practices. Factors to be looked in to for consideration included who is accountable for contaminated personnel and their privacy, should there be sanitizing. We would like to thank the Fire Department for their assistance and full co-operation on the day, and Jet 2 for allowing us to use one of their aircraft at such a busy time of year.

Janette Richardson from North Air has been awarded a £100 voucher and a gold We Are Safety Award for arranging for the Jet2 B752 G-LSAJ to be fuelled before it went into the Engine Test Bay.

The aircraft was a revenue flight that required high power engine runs before being returned to service. Without Janette’s pro-active actions the flight would not have been able to depart. Well done Janette!

On Friday 26th July Airfield Operations arranged for the Ice Cream van to make a return visit the airfield in their aptly named ‘FOD For a Flake’ campaign.

In order for the hard-working airside community to get their hands on a delicious 99 with a Flake, all they had to do was bring an item of FOD with them as a form of payment. We hope all those who managed to get to the van as it moved across campus enjoyed your sweet treat on the hot summer’s day!

Robert Beard went above and beyond expectations staying behind over 2hrs after his shift finished to fuel 3 diverted easyJet aircraft following a runway closure at Liverpool John Lennon Airport.

Without Robert’s help, the level of disruption to the airline PAX would have been much greater. For Robert’s dedication, he has been awarded a £100 voucher and a gold We Are Safety award. Great work Robert!
