Abstract
Am 17. August 2005 kündigte der für das Verkehrswesen zuständige EU-Kommissar Jacques Barrot die baldige Veröffentlichung einer zentralen "schwarzen Liste" (mutmaßlich) unsicherer Fluggesellschaften an. Anlass war eine Absturzserie in der ersten Augusthälfte. Während glücklicherweise alle Passagiere die Bruchlandung eines Airbus A 340 der Air France in Toronto am 2. August überlebten, starben bei drei weiteren Abstürzen insgesamt 297 Menschen, überwiegend EU-Bürger. Bereits wenige Tage später veröffentlichten die zuständigen Aufsichtsbehörden Frankreichs, Belgiens und der Schweiz eigene nationale "schwarzen Listen" solcher Fluggesellschaften, denen derzeit auf Grund schwerwiegender Verstöße gegen Sicherheitsvorschriften das Einflugrecht verweigert wird. difu
Will "blacklists" improve aviation safety? After a series of mostly fatal accidents in August 2005, France, Britain, Switzerland and Belgium decided to publish "blacklists" of (allegedly) unsafe airlines to protect uninformed passengers from harm. A EU-wide blacklist is under consideration. In the paper it is argued that blacklists do not positively contribute to aviation saftey, however. In particular, existing national blacklist lack any coherent methodology and are likely to be abused for politcal horsetrading and protectionist rather than safety objectives. Instead, policymakers would bei better advised tp implement a combination of other, much more effective safety initiatives, including a further tightening of air carriers' liability, better access to relevant safety information for the public, tour operators, insurance companies and not least other countries' safety oversight agencies, the ICAO's Universal Safety Oversight Programme and IATA's Operational Safety Audit. difu
