This team is the implementation team of EHEST. EHSIT was formed with the purpose of developing safety enhancements to the EHEST for approval using an agreed process, the EHSIT RTs and STs produce regional lists of the intervention recommendations identified by the regional EHSATs.
EHSIT CT consolidates the regional lists and then develops and recommends detailed action plans for industry, Authorities and operators (including GA communities) to implement the recommended safety enhancements.

Maintenance A maintenance Toolkit is now published on the IHST website. This toolkit is offered as a resource for maintenance technicians everywhere and anywhere in the world. The format is a skeletal reflection of what is known in Europe and some other regions as a Maintenance Organisation Exposition (MOE). The intent of this toolkit is for helicopter operators to assess their existing maintenance activities against these guidelines. |

EASA Annual Safety Review: The Annual Safety Review aims to inform the public of the general safety level in the field of civil aviation in Europe. To prepare the reviews the EASA had access to accident information collected by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) through its Accident/Incident Data Reporting (ADREP) system as well as accident statistics published by ICAO. In addition, EASA Member States made data available on light aircraft accidents for the year 2006.
