1) Several general aviation accidents occur each year due to pilots encountering reduced visibility conditions and experiencing spatial disorientation or controlled flight into terrain. Even in clear weather, night flights over areas with limited lighting provide few visual references that can be disorienting.
2) Three accident summaries are described where pilots crashed after experiencing spatial disorientation in low visibility conditions. The accidents involved a pilot who flew too low through a mountain pass, a pilot who deviated from his flight path and altitude in instrument conditions, and a pilot who crashed while maneuvering in dark night conditions with limited visual references.
3) Pilots are encouraged to obtain weather briefings, refuse external pressures that could influence dangerous decisions, seek training on aircraft
The Gimli Glider incident involved an Air Canada Boeing 767 running out of fuel mid-flight due to a misunderstanding and miscalculation of the metric system when fueling the plane. The pilots were forced to land the plane without engines or hydraulic systems, and the captain succeeded in performing an unprecedented side-slip maneuver to safely land the plane at a former military air base in Gimli, Manitoba, resulting in no fatalities or serious injuries. An investigation later found the root cause to be a failure to properly train personnel on fuel calculations in metric units, leading to only half the required amount of fuel being loaded onto the plane.

Air France Flight 4590 An Accident Investigation ReportMartha Brown
Air France Flight 4590 crashed during takeoff from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport on July 25, 2000, killing all 109 people on board. The crash was caused by the disintegration of a tire on takeoff, which sent debris into the left wing fuel tank and engines. This caused a fire and loss of thrust from both engines on the left side. The crew was unable to regain control and the plane crashed. The accident report found fault with Continental Airlines for the loose debris on the runway, but human factors like crew resource management and lack of dual engine failure procedures also contributed to the chain of events leading to the crash.
Flight 201 from Panama City to Cali, Colombia crashed on June 6, 1992 in the Darien Gap, killing all 47 people on board. The crash was caused by faulty instrument readings from the aircraft's attitude indicator, which led the pilots to believe the plane was banking left when it was actually banking right, causing an uncontrolled dive. An investigation found a wiring harness in the attitude indicator was damaged, causing intermittent failures. The crash highlighted deficiencies in Copa Airline's pilot training regarding instrument failures.
The document summarizes the results of a Line Operations Safety Audit (LOSA) conducted by Air Georgian Limited. The LOSA involved trained observers flying on company flights and recording observations. Key findings included common threats like weather, frequent errors like sterile cockpit violations and checklist failures, and undesired aircraft states like deviations from assigned altitude and speed. 15 recommendations were made to address issues and improve safety, with 10 already implemented. The LOSA provided valuable insights into operations and a training tool to continuously enhance safety. Lessons for future LOASs included marking overall procedure compliance and improving observer training and scheduling.

Flight 236 from Toronto to Lisbon lost all engine power over the Atlantic Ocean due to a fuel leak caused by improper maintenance. The pilots, Captain Robert Piché and First Officer Dirk de Jager, glided the plane for over 100 km and landed safely in the Azores, saving all 306 people on board. An investigation found that a wrongly installed part during maintenance caused a fuel line to rupture. While pilot error was also cited, the pilots were hailed as heroes for their emergency landing without power.
CAV_2323_CHAPTER_1_INTRODUCTION_TO_HUMAN.pptxEndris Mohammed
This chapter introduces human factors and its importance in aviation. It defines human factors as involving the performance and behavior of individuals as well as their interaction with technology, other people, and the operating environment. It explains that human factors play a major role in both safe and unsafe aircraft operations, leading to incidents and accidents. The chapter examines models for understanding human factors, like the SHELL model, and discusses how minimizing human error through good design, training, and working conditions can improve safety. It provides examples of past aviation accidents and incidents where human factors played a role, like the 1988 Aloha Airlines Flight 243 accident caused by missed cracks during maintenance inspections.
The Air India Express flight 1344 from Dubai to Calicut on August 7th, 2020 crashed during its second landing attempt at the Calicut International Airport, resulting in 21 deaths. The flight encountered heavy rain and winds during both landing attempts. During the first attempt, the captain's windshield wiper stopped working, requiring them to abort the landing. On the second attempt, the first officer cautioned the captain about the high descent rate but the captain did not initiate a go-around when advised. The plane touched down late at the end of the runway and overshot, crashing into a valley and splitting into two pieces. The accident was caused by poor crew resource management and decision making by the captain in the unstable weather conditions
1. The document discusses runway closures at commercial airports that can occur due to failures in airfield lighting systems. It provides examples where lighting failures led to diversions, cancellations, and delays costing airports and airlines significant sums.
2. The solution proposed is portable solar-powered airfield lighting systems that can be rapidly deployed in the event of primary lighting failures, avoiding the need to close runways. These systems are fully autonomous and wirelessly controlled.
3. Permanently installed standby solar lighting integrated with existing airfield systems is also suggested, allowing automatic switching to the backup lights if main power is lost, thus keeping runways open.
