What
is IC Check?
NATA IC Check is an online application that applies
up to 300 algorithms to individual flight data to confirm compliance
with all applicable Federal Aviation Regulations as well as other government
regulations and company, customer, industry and insurance standards
for aircraft operators.
IC Check’s primary goal is to assess whether individual flights
for which an operator exercises operational control include only a legal
crew, legal passengers, legal aircraft and legal flight parameters.
If IC Check’s calculations indicate that the flight is “In
Compliance” with all operator-specified requirements, the program
issues a “release” prior to flight in a process similar
to that followed by many 121 air carriers.
Once initially configured for an operator, the IC Check flight release
process typically requires two minutes of data entry per flight. Results
are nearly instantaneous.
An aircraft operator adopting the requirement to use compliance-based
releases not only helps to ensure flight legality, the operator also
can use IC Check to demonstrate consistent compliance with best practices,
strengthen their safety culture, and markedly reduce on-site FAA inspection
frequency and administrative burden, resulting in safer and lower cost
operations.
