Risk Management Process

What is the correct basic sequence of aeronautical risk management?

  • A.Identify hazards, assess their risk, and apply ways to mitigate that risk before and during flight
  • B.Mitigate first, then look for hazards if time permits
  • C.Assess insurance coverage, then brief the client
Correct answer

A. Identify hazards, assess their risk, and apply ways to mitigate that risk before and during flight

Why

Risk management works in order: hazards are found, their likelihood and severity are assessed, and controls are chosen to bring the risk down. Skipping identification means the rest of the process has nothing to work on.
