The Spherical Thrust Bearings remained in service in an unserviceable state despite inspections by various engineers and the pilot over the preceeding 18 months. This may indicate that the documented inspection procedures for the bearings are not being followed correctly or that the procedures need to be examined for their adequacy.

There is no general provision with the Part 139 aerodrome operating rules that enables me to require operators of aerodromes to install a discrete communications system. Rule Part 139 contains requirements for notification of aerodrome RFS in an emergency. I will consider recommending amendments to Rule Part 139 to aopt relevant wording used in Annex 14, when the Rule Part is next amended.

There are in existence, a number of programmes focussing on emergency procedures for aircraft operators, airport operators, and pilots. I will consider whether additional programmes, or revision of existing programmes can be undertaken to further heighten awareness of emergency procedures.
