Chief's Corner
for the benefit of All of our StudentS
(And the PASSengerS they will one
dAy CArry) i would reCommend we
emPhASize the AreAS thAt CAuSe the
greAteSt number of fAtAl AirCrAft
ACCidentS eACh yeAr.
The NTSB, the FAA, and of course the Air Safety
Institute spend much time and resources in
understanding annual accident trends and their
causes. Maybe not surprisingly, the primary
causes of aircraft accidents don't change very
much from year to year: The majority-70 percent to
80 percent-are pilot related.
The types of mistakes that pilots generally make
don't change that much either: The majority are
landing accidents-an area we spend a great deal of
time and energy teaching during primary training.
Although these are the most frequent accidents,
they are not often fatal-the airplane gets banged
up, but the people usually walk away.
The most lethal accidents are related to adverse
weather-65 percent are fatal.
So what can we do as instructors to help
bring down these accident rates? The
first thing is to talk about weather before
every flight. Don't wait until you get into
the cross-country planning phase of
instruction to discuss weather. From day
one, talk about where you find weather
reports and forecasts and discuss what
types of things you're looking for when
making a decision to go or not. Make it
part of your routine each flight. Have
your students get the weather and brief
