Those of you who subscribe to my newsletter (see www.eglider.org) and
followed the series about glider safety, may be interested in the
following discussion (audio only, approximately 11 minutes) on a
recent AVWeb broadcast:
“Following a pair of serious incidents and a fatal accident,
commercial flight crew training and professionalism in the cockpit
have become hot topics in Washington. In this podcast, AVweb caught up
with Dr. Key Dismukes, chief scientist for human factors at the human
systems integration division at NASA Ames Research Center. Dismukes
talks about the science of explaining why skilled pilots —
professional and general aviation both — make mistakes while
performing familiar tasks. He adds his insight on "pilot error"
statistics and the techniques you can use to avoid becoming one.”
