Impact of gender, age and experience of pilots on general aviation accidents.
General aviation (GA) accounts for more than 82% of all air transport-related accidents and air transport-related fatalities in the U.S. In this study, we conduct a series of statistical analyses to investigate the significance of a pilot's gender, age and experience in influencing the risk for pilot errors and fatalities in GA accidents. There is no evidence from the Chi-square tests and logis...
متن کاملSelective serotonin reuptake inhibitors in pilot fatalities of civil aviation accidents, 1990-2001.

We undertook a study to answer this question. The Microsoft Access database was queried for accidents occurring between 1989 and 2013 involving single engine piston airplanes operating under 14CFR P...
متن کاملGeneral aviation accidents in degraded visibility: a case control study of 72 accidents.
BACKGROUND Accidents in degraded visibility continue to account for a disproportionately large number of fatal crashes and fatalities in general aviation (GA). However, the relatively small percentage of these crashes annually suggests that even a small reduction in the number of crashes can result in a large reduction in associated fatalities. OBJECTIVE This study identified risk factors ass...
متن کاملFirst-generation H1 antihistamines found in pilot fatalities of civil aviation accidents, 1990-2005.
