Definition of Investigative Areas for Human-Factor Aspects of Aircraft Accidents

摘要

This paper is the final report of a 9-month survey effort designed to identify the major pilot factors involved in aircraft mishaps, rank order the major pilot factors in relation to a return-on-investment metric, identify aviation technologies with a high potential for diagnosing and/or reducing these pilot factors, and suggest potentially high-payoff programs for researching the pilot factor aspects of aircraft for the purpose of reducing their incidence.
