  • Substandard Flight Crew Performance I
    Running Head; Substandard Flight Crew Performance i Substandard Flight Crew Performance: Recurrent Human Factors in Flight Crew Initiated Aircraft Incidents and Accidents By Raymond Newell, BSc (Hons) MSc Doctoral Thesis Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy of Loughborough University June 2017 Substandard Flight Crew Performance iii ABSTRACT The objective of this research has been to understand more about aviation accidents in which the actions of the flight crew members (hereafter FCMs) were the main cause. A new con- struct has been developed known as substandard flight crew performance (hereafter SFP) to provide framework and context for this research. To support this construct, the most recurrent examples of SFP were identified from analysis of decades of investigations and reports. Based upon the frequency of occurrence, the potential contribution to aviation safety, and the feasibility of conducting meaningful research, three diverse but interconnected factors have been identified. The first of these related to the recurrent influence of verbal phenomena in aviation accidents, in particular, distracting conversations and unclear communications. The literature indicated that even those tasked with investigating accidents where these phenome- na had been present understood very little about the underlying reasons for their occurrence. Furthermore, although these phenomena have been studied within more general research populations, as far as is known no previous research has examined their function in the avia- tion context. A questionnaire and unstructured interviews with FCMs resulted in two taxon- omies, both of which have been supported by ethnographic1 observations. The next strand of this research critically examined some of the reasons why some flight crews become unsure of their position or orientation whilst navigating both in flight and on the ground, a phenome- non that has been associated with some of the most serious instances of SFP.

August has been a busy and exciting month worldwide, with the London Olympics dominating headlines. However, as the Olympics have now officially concluded and with Nigerian athletes returning home it is possible that we may now begin to wonder what the point of it all was; and, perhaps why we have all spent so many hours glued to our televisions! However, it is more important to recognize the overall message of the Olympics than to analyze Nigeria’s performance. As, the games are not just a celebration of sporting prowess, they are also an opportunity for the world to come together and to interact. They may also be the greatest visual manifestation of globalization. This visual manifestation is most poignantly expressed in the opening and closing ceremonies when the athletes assemble with their respective flags. During these events the athletes come together to celebrate both their triumphs and losses, and they are bound together through their participation.
