Human Factors in Aviation Maintenance

Aviation is considered one of the safest means of travel in the world today, yet every now and again, an accident occurs which shakes our complacency.

When we look to the accident cause, we look for a chain of events that could be a series of simple errors that led up to the event. Accident statistics reveal that maintenance errors were a contributing factor to the chain of events in 12% of major airplane accidents.

Many, if not most of these accidents involved some degree of human error. If we can break the chain of events at the maintenance level, the accident will not likely happen.
