Perfusion, 2005
Thirty years ago the world of Commercial Aviation provided a challenging environment. In my early flying days, aircraft accidents were not unusual, flying was seen as a risky business and those who took part, either as a provider or passenger, appeared grudgingly willing to accept the hazards involved.

Alcohol policy and aviation safety
Addiction, 1997AbstractAviation provides an environment which is almost uniquely unforgiving of mistakes. Accordingly, impairment of aircrew performance by alcohol can, and occasionally does, lead to catastrophic mistakes. That such disasters are rare, is a credit to the responsibility of aircrew themselves and to the effectiveness of aviation industry policies ...

Lessons Learned from Aviation Safety
Journal of Safety Research, 2008The principles of Prevention through Design (PtD) may be broadly applied. For example, physicians collect information on adverse effects of drugs from the field. They then turn this information over to the pharmaceutical companies. In response, the pharmaceutical companies evaluate the data and make necessary changes, such as altering the label of a ...

Air traffic today is immense, with large numbers of humans and goods transported routinely, but also in search and rescue missions, military contexts, and hobby piloting, etc. Still, aviation today is safer than it ever has been, thanks to advanced technology and procedures which are continuously revisited and, where necessary, improved.

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2012
The objective is the general review of impact of aircraft wake vortices on the follower aircraft encountering the wake. Currently, the presence of wake vortices past aircraft limits the airspace capacity and flight safety level for aircraft of different purposes. However, wake vortex nature and evolution have not been studied in full measure.

Aviation safety, an introduction
Air & Space Europe, 2001Abstract Air transport will continue to grow. It has a good relative safety record but public perception focuses on total accidents rather than relative safety. This has led to the setting of ambitious new safety targets for air transport, whose attainment will require improved knowledge of causes of accidents and better understanding of the effects ...
