https://doi.org/10.51955/2312-1327_2026_1_6
Abstract
The article provides results of a detailed analysis of the degree to which the provisions of the Russian Federation Safety Program (S Program) comply with the requirements of the ICAO standards in terms of the content of the State Safety Program (SSP). The analysis was performed for each element of the ICAO SSP conceptual framework from Annex 19 of the Convention on International Civil Aviation, Edition 3, 2025, Chapter 3, as well as the provisions of Chapters 4 and 5 related to the SSP. The requirements of the eight critical elements of the ICAO SSP were also taken into account. For most of the provisions of Annex 19 under consideration, recommendations are provided for adjusting the S Program for more complete implementation of ICAO Standards. The reference to the history of the S Program formation and brief information on the US SSP as an example of a successful and practically useful program is given
