Aviators Model Code of Conduct - Structure

Structure

The Code of Conduct covers all aspects of operating in the general aviation environment, including:

  1. General Responsibilities of Aviators
  2. Passengers and People on the Surface
  3. Training and Proficiency
  4. Security
  5. Environmental Issues
  6. Use of Technology
  7. Advancement and Promotion of General Aviation

For each aspect, the Code of Conduct covers governing principles (“minimize the discharge of fuel, oil, and other chemicals into the environment”) and lays out specific practical recommendation (“use a Gasoline Analysis Test Separator (GATS) jar or other environmentally sound device/procedure for all fuel sampling”). Where applicable, sourced commentary is used to substantiate principles and recommendations.

Recognizing the need for early socialization, recommendations for integrating the Code of Conduct into flight training (including sample lesson plans) are collected in Notes For Instructors.

The Code of Conduct is intended to be specialized by aircraft operation and to evolve over time and place. Versions are available for:

  • gliders,
  • light-sport aircraft
  • seaplanes
  • student pilots
  • mechanics
  • flight instructors

Foreign-language translations incorporate national and regionally-specific practices and regulations.

Notes for Prospective Implementers provides guidelines and resources for individuals and organizations adopting the Code of Conduct.
