Safety management systems in aviation
\"Safety Management Systems in Aviation, Third Edition presents the quality management underpinnings of SMS, the four components, risk management, reliability engineering, SMS implementation, and the scientific rigor that must be designed into proactive safety. Including coverage on the cultures of regulatory organizations and expanded coverage on culture assessment, the book considers the nexus between cultural maturity and safety management performance. The third edition features new coverage of international requirements and implications for harmonization across international boundaries. In addition, the book includes new chapters and sections, examples, a hypothetical airline-oriented safety scenario, and case studies to enhance and reinforce student understanding. The book is intended for undergraduate aviation students taking Safety Management and Aviation Safety courses. It also functions as a valuable reference tool for SMS practitioners\"-- Provided by publisher.

Implementing Safety Management Systems in Aviation
In their first book, Safety Management Systems in Aviation, Stolzer, Halford, and Goglia provided a strong theoretical framework for SMS, along with a brief discourse on SMS implementation. This follow-up book provides a very brief overview of SMS and offers significant guidance and best practices on implementing SMS programs. Very specific guidance is provided by industry experts from government, industry, academia, and consulting, who share their invaluable insights from first-hand experience of all aspects of effective SMS programs.

Developing Safety-Critical Software
As the complexity and criticality of software increase and projects are pressed to develop software faster and more cheaply, it becomes even more important to ensure that software-intensive systems are reliable and safe. This book helps you develop, manage, and approve safety-critical software more efficiently and effectively. Although the focus is on aviation software and compliance with RTCA/DO-178C and its supplements, the principles also apply to other safety-critical software. Written by an international authority on the subject, this book brings you a wealth of best practices, real-world examples, and concrete recommendations.

Safety-I and safety-II
Much more than a technical book. Erik’s work is a well documented journey into the multiple interactions between safety, work and human nature. A timely contribution to vindicate human beings and their variability from the one sided focus on the evils of human error. A groundbreaking look at ‘the other story’ that will certainly contribute to safer and more productive workplaces.
Dr Alejandro Morales, Mutual Seguridad, Chile
Safety needs a new maturity. We can no longer improve by simply doing what we have been doing, even by doing it better. DR Hollnagel brings forth new distinctions, interpretations, and narratives that will allow safety to progress to new unforeseen levels. Safety-II is more than just incident and accident prevention. A must read for every safety professional.

Mechanisms in the Chain of Safety
Contemporary approaches to aviation safety show a dynamic endeavour to identify a variety of components that minimize the emergence of adverse situations. In this process there has always been a strong interrelation between these components and it allows us to talk about a chain of safety. This volume presents the most recent efforts in this chain of safety streaming from both the industry and academia, as well as the future challenges for operational settings.

Brace for impact : air crashes and aviation safety
\"How safe are airplanes? Does seat preference make a life-or-death difference? What makes airplanes crash? Peter Pigott answers these questions and more as he examines the long history of airplane accidents. Discover what the biggest crashes in history were, why things went wrong, and how safe you really are when you book your next flight.\"-- Provided by publisher.

Flight Theory and Aerodynamics - A Practical Guide for Operational Safety (3rd Edition)
This book is the essential pilot's guide to the physics of flight, designed specifically for those with limited engineering experience. From the basics of forces and vectors to craft-specific applications, this book explains the mechanics behind the pilot's everyday operational tasks. The discussion focuses on the concepts themselves, using only enough algebra and trigonometry to illustrate key concepts without getting bogged down in complex calculations, and then delves into the specific applications for jets, propeller crafts, and helicopters. This updated third edition includes new chapters on Flight Environment, Aircraft Structures, and UAS-UAV Flight Theory, with updated craft examples, component photos, and diagrams throughout. FAA-aligned questions and regulatory references help reinforce important concepts, and additional worked problems provide clarification on complex topics.
