Tools to help pilots assess each situation and make every flight the
safest possible, with the least amount of risk. This FAA handbook
provides tools to help pilots determine and assess each situation for
the safest possible flight with the least amount of risk. Pilots who
practice effective risk management possess predetermined personal
standards and have formed habit patterns and checklists to
incorporate them. This handbook presents methods pilots can use to
manage the workloads associated with each phase of flight, resulting
in a safer, more enjoyable and less stressful experience for both
themselves and their passengers. In the last 20 years, approximately
85 percent of aviation accidents have been caused by pilot error;
often the result of a tendency in flight training to focus solely on
the physical aspects of flying the aircraft. The flight instructor
who integrates risk management into flight training teaches aspiring
pilots how to be more aware of potential risks in flying, clearly
identify those risks, and manage them successfully leading to a solid
understanding of how to avoid the most common pilot errors. This
comprehensive manual covers subjects such as human behavior,
identifying and mitigating risk, aeronautical decision-making,
single-pilot resource management, automation, and risk management
training. Appendices contain checklists and scenarios to aid in
setting personal minimums, sample risk management scenarios, and a
controlled flight into terrain (CFIT) checklist. Softcover,
full-color illustrations, glossary, index, 8-3/8" x 10-7/8", 112
pages.
