Human Factors in Airport Surface Incidents: An Analysis of Pilot Reports Submitted to the Aviation Safety Reporting System (ASRS) Final rept

摘要

The purpose of this study was to examine human factors involved in airport surface incidents as reported by pilots. Reports submitted to the Aviation Safety Reporting System (ASRS) are a good source of information regarding the human performance issues and/or failures that contribute to surface incidents and can be used to supplement the information contained in FAA reports of pilot deviations. This study examined 300 ASRS reports of airport surface movement events (runway incursions and surface incidents) at the 34 busiest towered airports in the U.S., submitted between May 2001 and August 2002. The reports were selected to include those filed by a captain or first officer who was operating the aircraft under FAA Part 121, 135, or 91, and who was directly involved in the incident.
