  • Air France 447 Transcript
    What Really Happened Aboard Air France 447 Craig E. Geis, M.B.A., M.A. Psychology This case is designed to accompany the Heliprops article: The Effects of Stress on Our Physiological, Perceptual, and Cognitive Performance Permission for the use of this article comes from the author, Jeff Wise. Jeff is a science writer, outdoor adventurer, and pilot of airplanes and gliders. A contributing editor at Popular Mechanics, he has also written for The New York Times Magazine, Esquire, Popular Science, Men's Journal, and many others. In December, 2009, he published his first book of psychology, Extreme Fear: The Science of Your Mind in Danger. To learn more about his writings and career visit his web site, the Jeff Wise Blog, at www.jeffwise.net. There is still a great deal of controversy over this accident and my point is not to argue facts or try to determine a root cause for the accident but to use this article to demonstrate the principles we have been looking at in the series of articles. Read the case completely. Stop when you see a number (1) and read my comments which are in bold. The footnote numbers in this article are also referenced in the article: The Effects of Stress on Our Physiological, Perceptual, and Cognitive Performance . We are not trying to figure out what the crew should have done but why they may have done what they did. Much of what has been written about this accident mentions the inexperienced crew and their lack of training. Experience and training are very subjective.

  • Seismic Activity and Air Traffic Safety
    Seismic activity and air traffic safety M. Kovalyov Once is an accident, twice is a coincidence, three times is a pattern. Ian Fleming. It has been almost two years since the tragic crash of Germanwings Flight 9525. The cause of the crash was ruled to be co-pilot’s suicide. A huge media frenzy followed the announcement with numerous ’experts’ in aviation, psychology, and every other imaginable field offering their analysis and advice. What has not been mentioned by the media is that the crash was only one of at least six mysterious airplane crashes in the same geographical region: 1) Germanwings Flight 9525 crashed on March 24, 2015 at 9:41 at 44:28oN; 6:44oE 1,2 . After an unprecedentedly short investigation of less then two days3,4 , it was announced that the mentally sick 28-year-old co-pilot Andreas Lubitz barricaded himself inside the cockpit and deliberately rammed the plane into the Alps. But why would the physically fit and smiling 28-year old co-pilot running marathon(s), as shown on the Internet pictures, who just purchased a brand new car, commit suicide? Those who knew him insisted Lubitz was not suicidal5. Many witnesses reported explosion and smoke before the plane plunged into the Alps and debris was found upstream from the crash site suggesting that at least one piece of fuselage had "been detached from the aircraft before impact"6; which can only happen if the plane exploded in the air. 2) Air France Flight 178 crashed on September 1, 1953 at 23:30 Paris time at practically the same place as the previous flight at 44:29oN; 6:7oE 7 amidst violent storms after "the flight had deviated from the planned course for unknown reasons".

It is anticipated that a greater number of Flight Data Analysis Programs will lead to significantly greater safety levels through analysis of critical event sets and incidents. Action: The FDAP working group is requesting support for greater implementation of FDAP/FDMP throughout the Pan American Regions and consideration of new ICAO standards through the actions outlined in Section 4 of this working paper. Strategic Safety Objectives: References: Annex 6 ‐ Operation of Aircraft, Part 1 sections as mentioned in this working paper RASG‐PA ESC/28 ‐ WP/09 presented at the ICAO SAM Regional Office, 4 to 5 May 2017. 1.
