1/6/25, 4:11 PM GCAA adopts Protocol for Autopsy and Aviation Medicine in Air Accident Investigations - www.lokmattimes.com
fostering collaboration among various relevant entities.
It marks a critical development in investigation methodologies by enabling
investigators to consult experts in forensic medicine and aviation medicine to
analyse the health status of flight crew members as one of the investigative
aspects. This is in addition to other elements related to the aircraft's condition, flight
operations, and human factors. Together, these analyses integrate to yield the most
precise conclusions regarding the causes of accidents and the contributing factors.
Abdullah bin Touq Al Marri stated, "The adoption of this protocol, designed to
provide more enablers for fostering a safer and more sustainable aviation
environment, reflects our commitment to the wise leadership's directives to
enhance aviation safety and develop innovative tools to improve air accident
investigations and prevent their recurrence.
We take pride in the advanced status of the UAE in aviation security and safety, as
well as its swift and sophisticated capabilities in dealing with air incidents."
