A portal of aviation medical research reports from the Federal Aviation Association (FAA) in the US. This web portal contains current and historical aviation medical research publications reaching back to the 1960's.
This book contains a complete description of the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS), which incorporates James Reason's model of latent and active failures as a foundation. Widely disseminated among military and civilian organizations, HFACS encompasses all aspects of human error, including the conditions of operators and elements of supervisory and organizational failure.
Covers the many factors that can affect 'medical airworthiness'. This book includes medical developments that have a bearing on cockpit health. It provides accident-preventing information you can use to anticipate and compensate for the physiological effects of flying that can erode performance.
This book provides a detailed overview of the human factors and performance limitations associated with flying fast jets, integrating all the latest available research literature on the demanding operational tasks faced by such pilots and aircrews.
This book provides students and the broader aviation community with a complete, accessible guide to the subject of human factors in aviation. It covers the history of the field before breaking down the physical and psychological factors, organizational levels, technology, training, and other pivotal components of a pilot and crew's routine work in the field.
This book provides a unique overview and insight into the background and usability of safety theories, as well as modelling how they developed and how they are used today in aviation safety.
The Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) is an independent Commonwealth Government statutory agency which conducts independent ‘no blame’ investigation of transport accidents and safety occurrences; safety data recording, analysis and research; and influences safety action through fostering safety awareness.
The main Australian professional body concerned with the understanding of interactions among humans and other elements of a system, applying theory, principles, data and methods to design in order to optimise human wellbeing and overall system performance.
A US-based agency investigating accidents, crashes, and other events in the aviation, highway, marine, pipeline, and railroad transportation modes. Recently the organisation has added the investigation of accidents in commercial space transportation to its responsibilities.
Civil Aviation Orders (CAOs) include information on technical standards and specifications. They provide detailed mandatory operational, airworthiness and safety requirements, complementing those set out in the Civil Aviation Regulations (CAR) 1988.
A website facilitating communication between stakeholders promoting best practice sharing across the industry with the aim of reducing cost to individual businesses, collaboration between all players to work on integrated practical solutions for existing issues and future challenges, and the human side of aviation.
