Your bags are taken away from you and you sometimes wonder if you'll ever see them again. You are screened and checked, moved to a departure room and then to wait to board a metal tube which takes you miles up into the air. Any weather problems that you encounter such as turbulence have to be endured by staying in your allocated seat....

Airplane Upset Training Evaluation Report
ISBN: 9781505569087 / Angielski / Miękka / 578 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the last decades, loss of control in flight was the largest category of commercial jet fatal accidents worldwide. Precipitating factors in these accidents have included equipment failures and system anomalies, weather phenomena, inappropriate use of flight controls or systems, inappropriate control responses by crew, or some combination of these factors.

However, recovery from upset attitudes is challenging, even for highly experienced airline...

Decision Making in Aviation
ISBN: 9780754628675 / Angielski / Twarda / 486 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Decision making pervades every aspect of life: people make hundreds of decisions every day. The vast majority of these are trivial and without a right or wrong answer. In some respects there is also nothing extraordinary about pilot decision making. It is only the setting that is different - the underlying cognitive processes are just the same. However, it is the context and the consequences of a poor decision which serve to differentiate aeronautical decision making. Decisions on the flight deck are often made with incomplete information and while under time pressure. The implications for...
