| PART 5 5. MONITORING OF AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS PERFORMANCE 5.1 The Monitoring Process 5.1.1 To ensure compliance with minimum navigation and height-keeping performance specifications, ICAO has established procedures for systematic and periodic monitoring of the actually achieved aircraft systems performance. Formal reporting by pilots, Operators and ATS Providers, of specified deviations from assigned track or flight level supports this. 5.1.2 The monitoring process comprises four distinct actions a) monitoring of aircraft navigation performance by the Operator in cooperation with flight crews b) monitoring of Operators by the State having jurisdiction over those Operators in order to ensure that acceptable operating procedures are being applied by the Operator while conducting authorised flight operations c) monitoring of actual aircraft systems performance in normal flight operations, as observed by means of radar by the ATC units of States providing service in the NAT Region, and by other specialist systems designed to measure the technical height-keeping performance of aircraft and d) monitoring done on the basis of position and occurrence reporting. 5.1.3 Because of the large variety of circumstances existing in the relationship between States of Registry and their Operators engaged in NAT operations, it is not expected that all States will be able to make similar or identical arrangements. It is however expected that all States concerned will make maximum effort to comply effectively with their responsibilities and in particular to cooperate with requests for information about a particular incident from an ATS Provider or from the NAT CMA.
