Australia has an enviable record for airline safety - No one has
ever died in an accident involving a commercial jet aircraft in
Australia. The reasons behind this have been the source of much
speculation and theories tend to focus on issues related to the
natural environment and even luck. However, with human error being
present in arguably 100% of aircraft accidents, it seems reasonable
that a good safety record is at least partly the consequence of
human intervention. This text uses Australian aviation as a case
study of a safe system to explore the interactions between the
natural, operational and human environments. Based on doctoral
research including a major survey of pilot and air traffic
controller perceptions, the book is unusual in that it looks at
positive examples in safety rather than taking the traditional
reactive approach to safety deficiencies.
