The need for Advanced LOSA arises from the limitations and drawbacks of traditional LOSA. Amended LOSA aims to address some of the shortcomings of the original methodology and make it more effective and relevant to current aviation safety needs. Some of the key reasons for developing Advanced LOSA include Enhancing the scope, Improving data collection and analysis, Providing more targeted safety recommendations. First, Traditional LOSA mainly focuses on flight deck operations, but Advanced LOSA expands the scope to include other operational areas such as cabin operations, ground handling, and maintenance. Second, Advanced LOSA can build a Forecasting System that can predict the future through data collection and data analysis. Third, Advanced LOSA aims to provide more specific and targeted safety recommendations based on the Aviation data collection and Aviation data analysis. Overall, Advanced LOSA seeks to improve aviation safety by addressing the limitations of traditional LOSA and providing a more comprehensive and effective methodology for identifying and mitigating safety risks in aviation operations.

Line operation safety audit (LOSA) is the proactive data collection system to capture the accident and serious incident caused by flight crew and is the safety management program for collecting threat error management (TEM) and crew resource management (CRM) during normal operations. The typically LOSA is written by hand, manages and archives the LOSA Observation Worksheet. But, this method is not easy to archive and ensure confidentiality of the LOSA worksheets. As we implemented the K-LOSA of the web-document type instead of the existing LOSA archive method and change the TEM category code. we yields to archive the efficient data management and confidentiality. In this paper, we introduce the LOSA and to configure the K-LOSA program.

In this paper, it has implemented the design for the K-Line Operations Safety Audit(K-LOSA) designed to provide a proactive snapshot of system safety and flight crew performance before an incident and accident. It introduces the a LOSA and ten operating characteristics that have come to define LOSA methodology. According to the LOSA methodology, we explain the conceptual and detail design and implement the prototype for the data collected with LOSA collection tool.

Line Operations Safety Audit (LOSA) is a well known preventive aviation safety program for Threat and Error management (TEM). High quality LOSA data suitable for safety management is obtained when a flight crew flies at the same level of attention as ordinary flight. Factors contributing to LOSA data quality may include flight crew's understanding on LOSA purpose, observer's career, and characteristics of the organization responsible for LOSA operations. This study explored purposes of TEM and LOSA, as well as their relationship. Previous studies mentioned quality of LOSA data can be influenced by heuristic judgment, hawthorne effect, and priming effect. This study recognized the importance of LOSA data quality to be effectively used for preventive safety management. It was confirmed that the level of understanding on LOSA concept, experience of the observer, and the characteristics of the department in charge of LOSA operation could affect the quality of LOSA data.

LOSA is spreading rapidly over the world to improve safety of the airlines using threat and error management system. LOSA has shown its success on the major improvement on many areas including the riskiest phase called the blue box, which is the busiest during approach and landing. Asiana Airlines has completed data collection in 2004 and round table for the data cleaning, to implement safety change process. The propose of this paper is to introduce the LOSA, ICAO DOC 9803, and the experience of Asiana.

LOSA is a flight safety program that analyses human errors in normal operations. Trained pilot observers monitor the normal flights at the observer seat. LOSA is a proactive non jeopardy data collection tool using threat and error management(TEM) as a framework. With the analysis of crew behaviors through LOSA with The LOSA collaborative(TLC), the airlines can identify the behaviors of the crew during normal operations. The major objective of LOSA is to measure how the crew manage threats, errors and undesired aircraft deviations in the cockpit on day to day operations. The airlines are able to set up effective TEM training with practical six generation Crew recourse management(CRM) with data of error from LOSA instead of theoretical CRM courses. The Airlines can use TEM as an integral part of a Safety Management System(SMS) and uses monitoring and cross-checking skills in the flight operations to manage threats and errors effectively when we know the errors we make in the cockpit on daily operation. The result of LOSA indicates that the error detection rate should be enhanced since around the half of the errors went undetected. The areas which should be focused for enhancing the error detection are monitor, cross-check, the management of workload, automation and taxiway/ runway to manage errors effectively.

LOSA는 Line Operations Safety Audit(항공사 운항안전 감사)의 약자이며 기존의 적발 위주의 기존 Line Audit제도와 달리 조종사의 자발적 참여와 철저한 비밀을 유지하며, 처벌 금지 약속을 통하여 참여자가 평소 습관대로 비행할 수 있게 한다. 훈련된 감사관이 이를 소정의 절차서에 의거 조종석에서 관찰하여 실제의 안전취약 및 위협요소, Error를 포착해서 수집하고 텍사스대학 인적요인 연구소에서 분석하여 최종보고서를 작성하여 제도를 개선하는 안전프로그램이다. 제도와 방안을 개선하는 신개념의 선진 운항감사제도로서 안전관리시스템의 대표적인 비행안전 프로그램으로 통상 3${\sim}$4년을 주기로 실시한다. ICAO, IATA, FAA 및 IFALPA 실행 권고사항으로 현재 약30여개의 항공사가 실시하였다. LOSA는 2009년1월부터 ICAO부속서 6에 의거하여 항공사에서 실행해야 되는 SMS(안전관리 시스템)의 가장 효율적인 Hazard 식별 및 위험 관리도구 중의 하나이다. 본 논문에서는 안전관리시스템의 효과적 도구인 LOSA를 설명하고 항공사내 실행방법을 소개하는데 있다.
