Book excerpt: Aircraft and the three-dimensional environment in which they operate are not user-friendly for human beings. As a result, developing and maintaining the proficiencies necessary to safely and efficiently fly an airplane or helicopter are difficult, time-consuming, and costly. Flight training has barely progressed beyond the basics, perhaps because of a typical pilot's limited time and money. Training remains a sort of crash course in not crashing, with almost exclusive concentration on physically coordinating, maneuvering, and manually handling-not manhandling-an aircraft.

Book excerpt: Aviation is an intrinsically safe mode of travel. In 1994, the United States Air force system of Aero Clubs put forth substantial effort to put a program in place (fly Smart) to improve flying safety in its aircraft. This study compares the accident rates of Aero Club aircraft with rates seen in general aviation. A comparison is also made of the years prior to implementation of fly Smart to the three years following implementation. Aero Club records of accidents were available from 1987 through 1997. General aviation mishap statistics are collected by the National Transportation Safety Board and are collected and presented to the public by the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association in the form of an annual general aviation report. Comparison of these figures show that the Aero Club system had a lower accident rate and fatality rate in all but one study year (1992, Aero Club 10.12 accidents and 2. 38 fatal accidents per 100,000 flying hours; general aviation 8.97 accidents and 1.75 fatal accidents per 100,000 flying hours). The Aero Club accident rate in the period following implementation of fly Smart (1995 - 1997) was lower than before implementation (1987 - 1993, 5.19 versus 1.63, p=0.047), while general aviation rates for the same periods were unchanged (8.29 versus 8.00, p>0.05). No differences were seen in rates of larger vs. mid-size or small clubs. There were no differences in the accident rates of closed vs. open clubs. The Air Force Aero Clubs are certainly more restrictive than general aviation, but the improvement in safety record suggests the tighter regulations are rules you can live with.

Download or read book A Human Error Approach to Aviation Accident Analysis written by Douglas A. Wiegmann and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human error is implicated in nearly all aviation accidents, yet most investigation and prevention programs are not designed around any theoretical framework of human error. Appropriate for all levels of expertise, the book provides the knowledge and tools required to conduct a human error analysis of accidents, regardless of operational setting (i.e. military, commercial, or general aviation). The book contains a complete description of the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS), which incorporates James Reason's model of latent and active failures as a foundation. Widely disseminated among military and civilian organizations, HFACS encompasses all aspects of human error, including the conditions of operators and elements of supervisory and organizational failure. It attracts a very broad readership. Specifically, the book serves as the main textbook for a course in aviation accident investigation taught by one of the authors at the University of Illinois. This book will also be used in courses designed for military safety officers and flight surgeons in the U.S. Navy, Army and the Canadian Defense Force, who currently utilize the HFACS system during aviation accident investigations. Additionally, the book has been incorporated into the popular workshop on accident analysis and prevention provided by the authors at several professional conferences world-wide. The book is also targeted for students attending Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University which has satellite campuses throughout the world and offers a course in human factors accident investigation for many of its majors. In addition, the book will be incorporated into courses offered by Transportation Safety International and the Southern California Safety Institute. Finally, this book serves as an excellent reference guide for many safety professionals and investigators already in the field.

Book excerpt: Examines the FAA oversight of general aviation safety in mountainous areas. These recommendations are aimed at improving FAA's efforts to prepare general aviation pilots for the greater risks of flying in mountainous areas. Examines the legal and safety issues involved with the prohibition established against general aviation night operations at Aspen, CO Airport. Identifies the extent to which mountainous areas present higher risks than non-mountainous areas for general aviation, and actions that FAA is taking and should take to reduce the risks associated with mountain flying and the impact of those actions on general aviation.
