I talk about the stories between the takeoffs and landing.
Georges Florovsky, a prominent Russian Orthodox theologian, addressed the concept of “creeping determinism” in his 1969 essay “The Study of the Past,”.

Cognitive analysis theory.- Utility of anger and disutility of fear. Anger increases the perceived probability of overcoming the problem.

Fuzzy trace theory- A gist of information is taken more seriously than a verbatim explanation of the problem.

She just wants to fly — add more than 5 to the ref and she’ll keep rolling, leaving the asphalt behind like it was never meant to hold her. #aviation #airplane #pilots

🧵 An overriding Importance of context:

When we look at any accident and see the report, it almost seems that the crew was making perfectly rational decisions; it was just that they were using the wrong context (AA 587, use of full L and R rudder, Lion Air and Ethiopian 737 Max for example).

How does one hold a moment in time that’s now? Fleeting as it is, between the now becoming the past from when it was only a hopeful or hopeless future. Every breath is a farewell, and every step is a return—momentarily built to fade like your favorite song. #aviation #aviationlovers

🧵Risk homeostasis. Some captains I have flown with exhibit more clearly than most the problem discussed by economists: risk homeostasis.

I would like to offer this hypothesis most tentatively.
The air transport industry supports safety regulations and implementations when the safety requirements primarily Increase production efficiency.

🧵 An excerpt from the book "Normal Accidents," published in 1984:

"We will refer to the pilot as 'he'; there are only 100 female airline pilots out of 30,000, likely because there are none in the major supplier, the military."

🧵No company or industry succeeds without insights. It's hard to get insights without committing errors. The issue is that most of us work solely on reducing errors, which seems like a noble cause, yet we forget that mistakes play a crucial part in bringing insights.

🧵:In our accidents is our salvation. In an attempt to make the system safer, sometimes an ill-conceived technology makes the system more dangerous.

🧵A storyboard. A metaphor. Failure in design, equipment, process, operator, supplies, environment.

🧵 A fallible Human is a design for success. Fallibility is not a function of a Human being but a feature. Instead of doing away with humans in the cockpit, we should propose a more realistic cockpit with two pilots and one machine and add an incredible number of successful flights.

When a Captain abandons his post:
What happens when the roles and functions of a corporate/airline crew break down?

Never take the anti-intellectual side of arguments because people who will applaud you are the people you will hate. #rational #aviation

Random: As a crew you will face uncertainty. But you will manage that uncertainty. This is the nature of the beast. During the moments of uncertainty your success will come through reconciling the opposing viewpoints.

At 94 feet wing span and a 97 feet fuselage length. Almost a 1000 sq ft apartment. That swept back wing needs TLC on landing especially during X crosswinds. #aviation
