ABSTRACT
The intensive growth in the popularity of recreational aviation as a means of spending free time can cause an increase in the number of unwanted events in general aviation (GA). Thus, it is advisable to examine the safety of aerodromes and their nearest surroundings. The article deals with a risk analysis for a sightseeing flight, starting with and ending at a model aerodrome. A comprehensive analysis showed 67 hazard sources in the analysis area, of which 16 hazards were defined. Three out of sixteen hazards were assigned to the unacceptable category (according to the Risk Score Method). It was a mid-air collision, detachment of the aircraft’s elements in the air and a ground collision. For every hazard other than those acceptable, actions aimed at risk reduction were recommended. Moreover, the risk should be monitored at every stage of the operation.
