This book is composed of thirteen chapters. Chapter 1 provides a
short overview of the Air Transport System, from both the micro-
and macro-level structure. It covers the descriptions and
definitions of the main system elements: air carriers, airports and
air navigation service providers, as well as personnel, equipment,
procedures and the environment. Chapter 2 introduces the reader to
the basic concepts in air transport risk and safety. This chapter
covers the definitions of safety, hazards, risk, incidents and
accidents. It further explains safety criteria, safety barriers,
safety regulatory requirements, and finally it compares Safety I
and Safety II concepts. Chapter 3 covers the field of Air Transport
Safety Metrics and Records. Here safety metrics, accident
statistics and safety records are explained and illustrated.
Finally, a safety comparison of transport modes is made. Chapter 4
presents Sources of Accident/Incident Information. Explained here
is how safety-related events (incidents and accidents) are
investigated and what the phases of the investigation process are,
as well as how safety information is collected. Chapter 5 describes
the main safety issues in contemporary air transport. They are
grouped into three sets: airport, air navigation service providers
and air carriers' safety issues.
