THE MISSING LINK TO IMPROVED SAFETY
When it comes to aviation safety, we know having good data is critical. But in this case,
both quality and quantity matter. Small amounts of data usually amount to a limited set of
solutions. That's why the FAA and the general aviation (GA) community have been working
hard toward implementing more accessible data sharing solutions, including a flight data
monitoring program known as the National General Aviation Flight Information Database
(NGAFID). To learn more about the NGAFID and how some recent improvements have
enhanced the user experience, see the FAA Safety Briefing article " The Missing Link. "
FAA VIDEO: DRUGS AND PILOTS
The FAA has posted a new video, " Avoiding Adverse Drug Interactions in 57 Seconds, "
detailing how pilots can avoid the effects of over the counter and prescription drugs when
flying. Several studies published by the FAA Toxicology Laboratory indicate the presence of
illicit drugs, prescription, or over-the-counter medications in 42 percent of pilots who died
in fatal general aviation accidents, according to FAA officials.
BOOKS, FILM MADE TO INSPIRE FUTURE PILOTS
Recently released books and a documentary film focus on inspiring girls, minorities, and
many others to pursue their aviation dreams. Learn more.
