Aircraft Safety Case Development for British Antarctic Survey and FAAM Airborne Laboratory: UK Research and Innovation requires the development of national capability operations safety cases for British Antarctic Survey and FAAM Airborne Laboratory aircraft, which are UKRI owned, namely: one BAE 146-301, also subject to a mid-life upgrade; one De-Havilland Canada (DCH) DASH 7 (DHC 7-110, VP-FBQ) and the four DHC Twin Otters (DHC 6-300, VP-FAZ, VP-FBB, VP-FBC, VP-FBL), and one future replacement aircraft De-Havilland Canada DASH 8 (please note that another supplier is contracted to develop a safety case for this aircraft however some involvement may be required to ensure that translation of all individual safety cases is consistent to UKRI level).
