The International Federation of Air Line Pilots’ Associations (IFALPA) is a non-political, non-profit organization that represents over 100,000 pilots from more than 90 member associations worldwide. Its mission is clear: to serve as the global voice of airline pilots. IFALPA promotes the highest standards of aviation safety and provides essential services, support, and representation to all its member associations.
One key feature of IFALPA is its issuance of Safety Bulletins. These bulletins are valuable resources for aviation professionals, offering updates on important topics. For instance, they cover recent FAA changes to ILS approach procedures, ATC operations in Brazilian airspace, and the 250-knot limit below FL100 in London’s TMA. Additionally, they address issues such as the misuse of rapid exit taxiways and the increased risk of runway incursions at KLAX. By staying informed through these bulletins, pilots can enhance their operational safety and effectiveness.
