If It's Broken

Fix it! 


"The world we have created is a product of our thinking; it cannot be changed without 
changing our thinking."  

Albert Einstein


We have the answers,
Now we need to change our thinking. 
Life is worth the expense of adequate training
and enforcing a Safety Culture

A Threat to Aviation Safety


What happens when the deviant behavior is in 
the hands of management?

The things that airlines, aircraft manufacturers, and the FAA are not sharing with the public. This book is the result of my doctoral research—Safety Culture, Training, Understanding, Aviation Passion: The Impact on Manual Flight and Operational Performance. While the intent of the research was to learn what predicted manual flight, what was learned may have predicted and, if heeded, prevented the Lion Air Flight 602, 2018 crash, Ethiopian Flight 302, 2019 crash, and Atlas Air Flight 3591, 2019 crash. What was learned could also have prevented the Air France Flight 447 crash. 

We now have the data that proves we can’t simply blame the pilot. There is never one reason an accident occurs, but a chain of events. If you travel, fly, or touch aviation in any aspect, you have every reason to read this book.
