This work evaluates the normative and legal compliance related to the human harnesses used by tactical flight officers in the institutional missions conducted by the Brazilian Public Air Units (UAPs), regulated by the Brazilian Civil Aviation Regulation (RBAC) no. 90. The study bases its analysis on the identification of regulatory obstructions that limit the performance of the Brazilian State, from the operational and aeronautical product certification standpoints, as well as on the demonstration of legal risks to the current operational context adopted by the units. The use of inappropriate human harnesses has shown to be a contributing factor to aviation occurrences and fatalities in Brazil. This research delivers a regulatory alternative with a view to greater operational flexibility, legal safeguards and increased safety for the UAPs and entities that employ air transportation as a tool for their institutional activities.
