About This Checklist
The ARP4761 Preliminary System Safety Assessment (PSSA) Checklist is an essential tool for aviation safety professionals conducting early-stage safety analyses of aircraft systems. This checklist, aligned with the SAE ARP4761 standard, guides users through the process of evaluating proposed system architectures, identifying safety requirements, and assessing the ability of the design to meet safety objectives. By implementing this checklist, aerospace engineers and safety analysts can systematically analyze preliminary designs, allocate safety requirements to lower-level components, and identify potential design improvements, ultimately contributing to the development of safer and more reliable aircraft systems.
