Teleconference Guidelines

  1. These calls are intended primarily for Safety Officers only, please. No promoting products or services 
  2. There is no cost to join a call. Join as many as you wish. 
  3. Calls are held "town hall" style conference to share ideas and their success are tied to the level of participation. Have questions/topics ready to propose on the call when prompted or send by email beforehand and we will ask the questions for you. Share your thoughts and experiences on topics with others. 
  4. The call starts promptly at 11:30AM Eastern time and is held strictly to a 30min call length. Join whenever you can, but please commit to the entirety if planning to comment.
  5. Calls are typically held on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each month unless otherwise stated. See the date of the next upcoming call in the banner above. 
  6. Though the teleconference computer says to announce yourself, its best that you do not. We encourage everyone remain anonymous. Please limit introductions to first name only before you are about to comment on the call. Only share additional information about your department or aircraft if necessary to the nature of the question. 
  7. Please use your phone's mute button to cut out background noise and un-mute when you wish to speak.
  8. We have had up to 45 people on one of the calls and average about 25, so it is impossible for everyone to talk – usually a few people will drive the conversation. This varies on every call.

About the Safety Teleconferences

AeronomX is proud to host and moderated by Walter Kraujalis this series of regularly scheduled teleconferences open to those serving as Safety Officer in their flight department, as a forum to get together to compare notes, ideas, and problems dealing with Safety Management Systems (SMS) and aviation safety topics.
"In my years of experience as an auditor and in discussions in my workshops, I have found that there are few opportunities and thus little interaction among fellow flight department Safety Officers. The intent for these calls are for the sharing of safety processes information between Safety Officers and to foster a safety culture that spans flight departments and creates a think-tank for like-minded aviation professionals." ​
