STUDY (SAFETY ANALYSIS) OF AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS DURING TAKE-OFF AND LANDING

A general survey is first given of accident statistics and the results of evaluations of accident reports, which was carried out to define, in a quantitative way, the causes of accidents and critical flight phases. Procedures (e.g. for approach and departure) and activity for a selected aircraft type are then analyzed; the results of the analysis can be used as a basis for digital simulation. Finally, examples of specific equipment solutions, which are mainly designed to relieve the pilot, are given.
