5. Safety Alerts For Operators (SAFO) and Information For Operators (InFO)
a.
SAFOs contain important safety information that is often time-critical. A SAFO may contain information
and/or recommended (non-regulatory) action to be taken by the respective operators or parties identified in the
SAFO. The audience for SAFOs varies with each subject and may include: Air carrier certificate holders, air
operator certificate holders, general aviation operators, directors of safety, directors of operations, directors of
maintenance, fractional ownership program managers, training center managers, accountable managers at repair
stations, and other parties as applicable.
b.
InFOs are similar to SAFOs, but contain valuable information for operators that should help them meet
administrative requirements or certain regulatory requirements with relatively low urgency or impact in safety.
c.
The SAFO and InFO system provides a means to rapidly distribute this information to operators and can
be found at the following website:
http://www.faa.gov/other_visit/aviation_industry/airline_operators/airline_safety/safo
and

the website.
