Why Airplanes Crash
Author: Clinton V. Oster
Publisher: New York : Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0195072235
Category : Aeronautics
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
With the deregulation of commercial airlines in 1978, the United States airline industry has changed dramatically. Route entry and exit flexibility, as well as fare setting have stimulated competition, forcing airlines to emphasize cost control, increased productivity, and effective marketing. How have these changes in both public and private policies influenced airline safety? Do airplanes have more accidents now than ever before? This work examines the causes of airplane accidents and what private and public policies are needed to improve aviation safety. It begins by examining the safety record of the United States commuter airline industry in the post-deregulation era characterized by increased emphasis by airlines on cost control and growing pressures on the air traffic control and airport system. The authors go beyond the safety of the scheduled airlines to examine the reasons for accidents in the nonscheduled and general aviation segments of the United States industry, where the bulk of fatalities occur and where airline pilots increasingly receive most of their training and experience. They then turn to an examination of aviation safety throughout the world, first with a detailed comparison of Canadian and American aviation safety, and then with a look at air safety in all regions of the world and the safety performances of all the world's major airlines. Three emerging issues are then examined in greater detail: assessing the margin of safety, worldwide aging of all airline fleets, and terrorism. Clearly written, this careful and systematic analysis of well over 15,000 individual aviation accidents will provide greater insight for government officials, aviation industrymanagers, and researchers, as well as laypeople and other frequent flyers.

Human Survival in Aircraft Emergencies
Author: Charles A. Yost
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Aircraft survival equipment
Languages : en
Pages : 76
Book Description
A general study was performed to outline methods for the improvement of human survival in civilian aircraft emergencies. Survival condition criteria, accident statistics and human tolerance limits have been surveyed with respect to those aircraft used in two categories: certificated air carriers and general private aviation (including official executive aircraft) The methods presented in this report for aircraft occupant survival improvement fall into the general areas of occupant protection through seat design and occupant restraint improvement to withstand impact accelerations which are applied to the aircraft.
