摘要

General aviation accidents represent 70% to 90% of all aviation accidents. Human error is implicated as a contributory factor in 85% of these crashes. General aviation crashes (N = 169) were analyzed using the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS) to elucidate the role of error in Australian crashes. Aircrew were more likely to commit skill-based and decision errors in the presence of substandard personal readiness, physical and mental limitations, and adverse mental states. Violations were associated with the presence of crew resource management failures. Reconfiguring the assessment of crashes by aviation insurers will further support analyses consistent with the systems approaches to accident investigation and comparison with other accident data sources.
