We are pleased to report that SIA has implemented all the TAIC’s safety recommendations with the exception of Safety Recommendation 050/03, which is still in discussion with Boeing (please see attached). As this aircraft is designed to be operated by two pilots, SIA is presently developing guidelines for the third pilot that will not impact the responsibility/accountability of a two pilot operation. As we need to discuss this further with the manufacturer and our civil aviation authority, we shall revert in due course.
