This handbook provides tools and guidance for pilots to recognize and manage risk through all phases of flight. It discusses how approximately 85% of aviation accidents are caused by "pilot error" due to a lack of risk management training. The handbook teaches pilots to identify potential risks, determine if risks are justified, and establish standards and procedures to successfully manage risks. Checklists and scenarios in the appendices aim to help pilots incorporate risk management into flight planning and training to improve safety.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to extend previous examinations of commercial multi-crew airplane accidents and incidents to evaluate
the Crew Resource Management (CRM) application as it relates to error management during the final approach and landing phase of
flight. With data obtained from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), a x2
test of independence was performed to examine if there would be a statistically significant relationship between airline management
practices and CRM-related causes of accidents/incidents. Between 2002 and 2012, 113 accidents and incidents occurred in the researched
segments of flight. In total, 57 (50 percent) accidents/incidents listed a CRM-related casual factor or included a similar commentary within
the analysis section of the investigation report. No statistically significant relationship existed between CRM-related accidents/incidents

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Figure I-1. The percentage of aviation accidents by phase of
flight.
accounted for 73.8 percent of total and 79.1 percent of
fatal GA accidents. As previously discussed, pilot-relat-
ed accidents also represented a smaller proportion of
overall accidents in 2006.
The accident categories shown in Figure 4 are defined
by the phase of flight in which the accident occurred
(for example, landing or maneuvering), or by primary
factor (such as fuel management or weather). Accidents
in the categories of weather, other cruise,
descent/approach, maneuvering, and “other” resulted in
disproportionately high numbers of fatal accidents when
compared to total accidents for that category.
Leading causes of pilot-related fatal accidents in 2006 were:
• Maneuvering: 25.0 percent (54)
• Descent/Approach: 19.0 percent (41)
• Weather: 14.8 percent (32)
• Takeoff/Climb: 14.4 percent (31)
Maneuvering accidents, which accounted for one of four
(25.0 percent) fatal GA accidents, showed an improve-
ment from the 27.5 percent recorded the previous year.
These accidents often involve questionable pilot judg-
ment, such as decisions to engage in buzzing, low passes,
or other high-risk activities. The trend in maneuvering
accidents shows a slight increase in the percentage of
both total and fatal maneuvering accidents since 1999.
Fatal descent and approach accidents, on the other
hand, increased from 11.2 percent of the fatal crashes in
2005 to 19

This handbook is a tool designed to help recognize and
manage risk. It provides a higher level of training to the
pilot in command (PIC) who wishes to aspire to a greater
understanding of the aviation environment and become
a better pilot. This handbook is for pilots of all aircraft
from Weight-Shift Control (WSC) to a Piper Cub, a Twin
Beechcraft, or a Boeing 747. A pilot’s continued interest
in building skills is paramount for safe flight and can assist
in rising above the challenges which face pilots of all
backgrounds.
Some basic tools are provided in this handbook for developing
a competent evaluation of one’s surroundings that allows for
assessing risk and thereby managing it in a positive manner.
Risk management is examined by reviewing the components
that affect risk thereby allowing the pilot to be better prepared
to mitigate risk.
The pilot’s work requirements vary depending on the mode
of flight. As for a driver transitioning from an interstate onto
the city streets of New York, the tasks increase significantly
during the landing phase, creating greater risk to the pilot and
warranting actions that require greater precision and attention.
This handbook attempts to bring forward methods a pilot can
use in managing the workloads, making the environment safer
for the pilot and the passengers. [Figure I-1]

of Documents, United States Government Printing Office
(GPO), Washington, DC 20402-9325, or from the GPO

According to National Transportation Board (NTSB) statistics, in the last 20 years, approximately 85 percent of aviation
accidents have been caused by “pilot error.” Many of these accidents are the result of the tendency to focus flight training
on the physical aspects of flying the aircraft by teaching the student pilot enough aeronautical knowledge and skill to pass
the written and practical tests. Risk management is ignored, with sometimes fatal results. The certificated flight instructor
(CFI) who integrates risk management into flight training teaches aspiring pilots how to be more aware of potential risks
in flying, how to clearly identify those risks, and how to manage them successfully.
“A key element of risk decision-making is determining if the risk is justified.”
The risks involved with flying are quite different from those experienced in daily activities. Managing these risks requires
a conscious effort and established standards (or a maximum risk threshold). Pilots who practice effective risk management
have predetermined personal standards and have formed habit patterns and checklists to incorporate them.
If the procedures and techniques described in this handbook are taught and employed, pilots will have tools to determine the
risks of a flight and manage them successfully. The goal is to reduce the general aviation accident rate involving poor risk
management. Pilots who make a habit of using risk management tools will find their flights considerably more enjoyable
and less stressful for themselves and their passengers. In addition, some aircraft insurance companies reduce insurance rates
after a pilot completes a formal risk management course.
This Risk Management Handbook makes available recommended tools for determining and assessing risk in order to make
the safest possible flight with the least amount of risk. The appendices at the end of this handbook contain checklists and
scenarios to aid in risk management consideration, flight planning, and training.
