Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Conventional wisdom suggests aircraft midair collisions to be random events, governed by the laws of Brownian Motion, and best analyzed by stochastic methods. An alternative hypothesis, that such accidents are deterministic in nature, and that specific factors leading to midair collisions can be identified and mitigated, forms the basis for this Dissertation. A predictive model using case control theory is developed for assessing Risk Index, a criterion measure of midair collision likelihood, for any General Aviation flight, actual or hypothetical. Generating the model requires statistical validation of two independent near midair collision databases, and identifying within them those aircraft, aircrew and airspace characteristics most closely associated with collision risk. Calibration of the model shows reality to fall somewhere between the stochastic and deterministic assumptions. A statistically significant correlation is found between predicted and observed Risk Index for a sizable random sample of flights, with a resulting Coefficient of Determination of 0.25. This suggests that we have identified 25% of the source of variance in midair collision risk, the remaining 75% being random. Therefore we can realistically hope to reduce midair collisions by roughly 25%. Strategies for mitigating the identified causal factors are proposed. Measures to reduce the random, remaining 75% of collision risk are also explored. However, these appear to require a significant overhaul of Air Traffic Control procedures, which must be approached with caution, to guard against the attendant possibility of curtailing capacity in the Air Transportation System."--Page 1-2

Book excerpt: The medical records of airmen involved in midair collisions from 1970 through 1973 were reviewed and compared with two other groups of pilots: (1) pilots involved in other types of accidents and (2) pilots without any accident records. There is nothing in the results to indicate that the pilots with visual corrections are a greater risk.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed: (1) reported near-mid-air collisions involving commercial carriers to determine which locations had the highest frequency of such incidents; (2) the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) short-term actions and plans to reduce the risk of commercial carrier mid-air collisions; and (3) FAA use of near-mid-air collision data to evaluate the effectiveness of its actions. GAO found that: (1) from 1986 through 1988, FAA received 2,610 reports of near-mid-air collisions, of which 1,158 involved commercial carriers; (2) FAA classified 834 of those commercial carrier incidents as serious; (3) most incidents occurred near major airports, while aircraft were under terminal radar approach control; (4) Chicago, New York, San Francisco, and Los Angeles had the highest number of incidents; (5) FAA actions to reduce collision risks included requiring additional equipment on planes, providing controllers with enhanced hardware and software, and designating special airspace at more airports; (6) FAA developed several long-term efforts to improve collection, analysis, and use of near-mid-air collision data, but inadequate financing, organizational changes, or further development needs have delayed their implementation; and (7) although FAA claimed difficulty in measuring the effectiveness of its risk reduction efforts, analysis of near-collision data before and after FAA actions indicated a decrease in near collisions.

Download or read book Near Midair Collisions the Extent of the Hazard to General Aviation in Utah Nevada and Idaho written by Robert B. Hulsman and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis randomly sampled the general aviation pilot population of Utah, Nevada, and Idaho for the purpose of determining the extent of the near midair collision hazards in these areas. The conditions investigated were all possible situations associated with a flight, and all that could be readily answered on a data form without encountering bias in the study. The thesis provided certain insights into what hazards are to be expected in the general aviation population of the three states under study. It also indicated as much as possible, what the causes were of the hazards and what actions could be taken to remedy or, at best, lessen them.
