Turnitin: Human Factors and Mishaps

Introduction

We've discussed in detail how important human factors are in safe flight. Now we'll look at a specific example of how further human factors considerations can help mitigate identified hazards.

Instructions

Choose a human factor or physiological principle that interests you which can negatively impact safety of flight; compose a 1,500 word research paper that:

1. Defines that factor/principle;

2. Describes how the factor/principle can affect safety of flight;

3. Uses a mishap listed in one of the major mishap investigation databases (NTSB, AOPA, DoD, ICAO, or other nationally-recognized database) to illustrate the hazard;

4. Proposes a countermeasure- either procedural, regulatory, training change, etc- that mitigates the hazard. This paper will use five cited resources and will be composed/formatted using APA style.
