CAST Reports
The Commercial Aviation Safety Team (CAST) has conducted a series of analyses of various categories of aviation accidents and incidents through its Joint Safety Analysis Teams (JSATs), Joint Safety Implementation Teams (JSITs), and Joint Safety Analysis & Implementation Teams (JSAITs). The Safety Enhancements on the CAST Plan are a product of these Teams.
The legacy industry-Government safety teams have transitioned to the new U.S. Aviation Safety Team (USAST) structure to create a system‑level approach to safety, in order to strengthen collaboration, data integration, and executive-level decision-making across aviation sectors. Please check out the USAST SKYbrary page to learn more.
