Learner Outcomes: Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:

- Summarize and explain the nature of the following major threats general aviation pilots and airline flight crew members face: aircraft malfunctions ( engine failure, engine/cabin fire), adverse weather (aircraft icing, LLWS, turbulence, VFR-into-IMC), loss of aircraft control (spatial disorientation, high altitude flight), and collisions (RE, Rl, MAC, CFIT).
- Distinguish between the six different approaches to explaining human error and describe the major components of James Reason’s model of accident causation.
- Identify the major defensive countermeasures designed to assist in identifying, avoiding and mitigating threats, errors and undesired aircraft states to include: SOP adherence; flows & checklist discipline, call-outs, & workload management; distraction management & sterile cockpit compliance; monitoring & automation management; crew briefings; stabilized approaches.
- Identify and describe “best practice” countermeasures to reduce the effects of the following threats: aircraft malfunctions ( engine failure, engine/cabin fire), adverse weather (aircraft icing, LLWS, turbulence, VFR-into-IMC), loss of aircraft control ( spatial disorientation, high altitude flight), and collisions (RE, Rl, MAC, CFIT).
