Description

Flying involves risks. Fortunately, most of these risks have been identified and managed down to remarkably low levels. However, accidents still occur, and the key to successful flight is an in-depth knowledge of the risks and how to effectively manage them. Managing Risk: Best Practices for Pilots uses actual aircraft accident examples, statistics, aviation safety studies, and the authors' more than 60 years of combined experience as pilots and flight safety educators to document and describe the 10 most significant accident threat categories, and shed light on the applicable human-factor issues that make pilots vulnerable to them. This book provides practical strategies as well as "best practice" countermeasures pilots can use to avoid or effectively manage risks during crucial phases of flight. Readers will have a more complete knowledge of the external threats to flight safety, coupled with a deeper understanding of how human errors often play out in the cockpit. Students and pilots at all certificate levels will improve their risk management skills by learning the practices described in this book, and ATP applicants will find it fulfills a portion of the new knowledge requirements that become effective August 1, 2014.

Product review & video

no one wakes up in the morning and thinks they're going to be involved in an accident many of these pilots who crash their airplanes fail to appreciate their own limitations there are multiple resources out there available to these pilots like the decide checklist the I'm safe checklist or the pave checklist which can help these pilots make good decisions as a ga pilot and flight instructor I'm very familiar with the difficult decisions that pilots have to make when assessing the risks for a flight it breaks my heart every time a pilot a family member or a friend flying with that pilot is killed in an accident that could have been easily prevented with proper risk assessment or good decision-making in July of 2006 near Winter Park Colorado two pilots were killed when they flew their plane very close to mountainous terrain also known as granite serving oftentimes these pilots are flying
