A Human Error Approach to Aviation Accident Analysis
Author: Douglas A. WiegmannPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351962353
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 174
Book Description
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 Description
"This book is about things that shouldn't happen, but do. In spite of lesons learned, defects corrected and rules imposed, plans continue to crash. Sometimes the causes are technical and arcane, but often they are woven from familiar threads of weather, terrain, and pilot psychology. This selection of 32 articles from Flying Magazine's long running Aftermath series examines some of the many ways pilots get into trouble. It emphasizes the perspective of the pilots themselves: the pressure they feel, the risks they choose to take, how they make decisions, and how they sometimes deceive themselves aobut the likely consequences of their actions. Few accidents are inevitable. These accounts are presented in the hope that pilots will learn from them to recognize both the situations and the mental states that put them and their passengers in jeopardy, and that some accidents might thereby be prevented. If any non-pilots happen to read them, they may gain a deeper understanding of what flying is all about."--back cover.
