All the terms you need to know when you’re trying to understand document management.
CASA stands for the Civil Aviation Safety Authority, which is the Australian government agency responsible for regulating civil aviation and maintaining safety standards throughout the country’s airspace.
Established in 1995, CASA oversees licensing for pilots and engineers, certification of aircraft and operators, and enforcement of aviation safety regulations in accordance with the Civil Aviation Act. It works closely with international organizations such as ICAO to harmonize safety standards and procedures.
Operators under CASA jurisdiction—whether airlines, charter companies, flight schools, or MROs—must comply with specific rules including the Civil Aviation Safety Regulations (CASR) and associated manuals and advisory publications.
For organizations using Web Manuals, CASA compliance is supported through powerful features like regulation mapping, automated revision control, and real-time distribution. This helps Australian aviation businesses maintain up-to-date, audit-ready documentation and streamline their compliance workflows.
In essence, CASA plays a crucial role in safeguarding Australia’s skies, and understanding its framework is vital for any operator working within or flying into the country.
