AF Standard · First Edition
Aerospace Safety & Operational Assurance
A safety and operational-assurance framework connecting hazards, system boundaries, people, change and continuing performance.
First Edition and supporting resources
Read the standard. Find the document for the task.
Each AF Standard has a defined technical scope and its own document collection. The original PDFs are available to view online or download from this page.
Requirements and applicability
Start with the First Edition for definitions, requirements, technical boundaries and the relationship between normative and informative content.
Practical implementation resources
Find policies, manuals, procedures, profiles, checklists and records by document code or subject. Supporting tools do not replace the standard.
Purpose
AF 9200 — the technical framework.
AF 9200 establishes an integrated safety and operational-assurance framework for aerospace systems and activities where safe outcomes depend on technology, people, procedures, infrastructure and operating conditions. It connects safety across design, integration, operation and continuing service.
Why this subject matters
A technically capable system can still create unacceptable risk through integration, assumptions, maintenance, human workload, external services or poorly controlled change. This scope focuses on the evidence and decisions needed to understand those interactions.
Intended application
Where the technical field applies.
The published framework can apply across aerospace lifecycle responsibilities, according to actual activity and scope.
- Aircraft and aviation-system organizations
- Operators and operational support
- UAS and AAM developers and operators
- Spacecraft and mission organizations
- Infrastructure and ground-system providers
- System integrators
- Maintenance and high-consequence technical services
Application domains
Requirement architecture
How AF 9200 is organized.
Safety governance & accountability
Ownership, escalation and acceptance of safety-related decisions.
Hazards & risk control
Hazard analysis, dependencies, assumptions and residual-risk decisions.
Operational boundaries
Normal, degraded, emergency and foreseeable off-nominal conditions.
Safety evidence
Traceability from hazards to design, verification, procedures and operation.
Human factors
Workload, communication, handovers, authority and recovery from error.
Change & continuing safety
Effects of changes to systems, software, suppliers and infrastructure.
Events & learning
Incident review, recurrence, trend and corrective learning.
Emergency capability
Safe states, contingency arrangements and recovery.
Performance monitoring
Meaningful evidence without concealing critical gaps.
First Edition / publication package

Programme relationships
Connected scope, separate requirements.
AF 9100:2026 provides the published organizational and lifecycle assurance foundation. AF 9200 addresses a distinct technical discipline with its own First Edition and supporting resources; conformity with one AF Standard does not automatically establish conformity with another.
Technical connections
Relevant Technical Committees.
These connections identify subject expertise relevant to the scope. Formal drafting and publication decisions follow separate technical review and approval processes.
