What's inside

A structurally complete manual, ready for you to make it your own.

Written from a real operating SMS program, then stripped of every company-identifying detail so it's yours to adapt — not a substitute for review by your own aviation counsel or SMS consultant, but a real head start.

§

Safety Policy

Corporate safety commitment, accountable executive designation, safety policy statement, and organizational safety objectives.

Safety Risk Management

Hazard identification process, risk assessment matrices, and risk mitigation and tracking procedures.

Safety Assurance

Safety performance monitoring, internal audit and evaluation procedures, and management of change process.

Safety Promotion

Safety training program structure, safety communication, and a non-punitive reporting culture policy.

Reporting Forms & Templates

Hazard report forms, risk assessment worksheets, and safety meeting documentation templates, ready to adapt.

Structured for FAA Review

Organized the way SMS documentation is expected to read for a Part 135 POI, so you're not reinventing the structure.

Built by an active DO

Not a generic template — a real manual, genericized.

This template started as a working SMS manual inside an active Part 135 operation. Every company name, software reference, and identifying detail has been replaced with clean placeholders so you can drop in your own operation's information.

  • All company-specific references replaced with editable placeholders
  • Signature blocks ready for your accountable executive and DO
  • README with find-and-replace instructions included
  • Delivered as a fully editable Word (.docx) file

Questions

Before you purchase

Is this ready to submit to the FAA as-is?

No. This is a structural template that needs to be customized with your operation's specific procedures, personnel, and details, then reviewed by your own aviation counsel or SMS consultant before submission. It does not guarantee FAA acceptance.

What format is the manual in?

An editable Microsoft Word (.docx) file, plus a short README explaining what to find-and-replace before use.

Does this replace an SMS consultant?

No. It's a head start, not a substitute for professional review. Complex operations or first-time SMS builds still benefit from consultant or counsel involvement before submission.

Is this legal or regulatory advice?

No. It is a documentation template only, not legal, regulatory, or aviation-safety consulting advice. Always confirm current requirements with the FAA and your own qualified advisors.

Can I use this for more than one certificate?

The license covers a single Part 135 operating certificate. Contact us if you need multi-certificate licensing.

Are refunds available?

Because this is an instant digital download, sales are generally final after access except where required by law or when the file is defective and cannot be replaced. Contact support if your file is damaged or inaccessible.
