HAVACILIK KAZASI VE PİLOT HATASI KAVRAMI ÜZERİNE BİR DEĞERLENDİRME

Havacılık sektörü her geçen gün gelişme göstermektedir. Havacılık sektörünün gelişiminde teknolojik yeniliklerin rolü oldukça önemlidir. Havayolu taşımacılık faaliyetlerine yönelik politikalar da sektörün hızlı bir şekilde büyümesi üzerinde tetikleyici olmaktadır. Havacılık sektöründe emniyet unsuru taşımacılık faaliyetlerinin vazgeçilmez bir parçasıdır. Uçuş operasyonlarının gerçekleştirilmesinde görevli kişilerin birincil amacı emniyetin sağlanmasıdır. Bu kapsamda havacılık sektörünün tüm birimlerinde emniyetin taşıdığı değer azımsanamayacak derecede yüksektir. Havacılık sektörü son yirmi yılda güçlü bir ivme yakalamış, yolcu, hava aracı, kargo bazında büyüme eğilimleri göstermiş ve havacılık ile ilgili diğer sektörlerin de gelişimini hızlandırmıştır. Bu süreçte havacılık otoritelerinin düzenlemeleri, hava aracı teknolojilerinin gelişimi gibi faktörler ile hava aracı kazalarında azalma gözlemlenmiştir. Ancak havacılık sektörü büyüme hızı doğrultusunda havacılık kazalarındaki azalma oranlarının daha düşük olduğunu söylemek mümkündür. Havacılık kazalarına ilişkin raporlardan elde edilen veriler doğrultusunda kaza nedenleri araştırılmakta ve çeşitli boyutlarda ele alınmaktadır. Kamuoyu nezdinde dikkat çekici olan nedenlerden biri de pilot hatasıdır. Bu çalışmada havacılık kazası, pilot hatası, kaza nedenleri irdelenmiş ve konu ile ilgili yapılan araştırma sonuçları derlenmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda kaza nedenlerinin aynı anda farklı boyutlar altında ele alınabileceği, pilot hatası ile ilgili demografik değişkenlerin evrensel özellik taşımadığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

AN EVALUATION ON THE PILOT ERROR CONCEPT AND AIRCRAFT ACCIDENT

The aviation industry is developing day by day. The role of technological innovations in the development of the aviation sector is very important. Policies for air transportation operations are also triggering the rapid growth of the sector. Safety in the aviation industry is an indispensable part of transport activities. The primary purpose of the employees involved in carrying out flight operations is to ensure safety. In this context, the value of safety in all units of the aviation sector is considerably high. The aviation sector has gained strong momentum in the last two decades, demonstrated accretion trend in the base of passenger-aircraft-cargo, and accelerated the development of other aviation-related sectors. In this process, decreases in aircraft accidents have been observed with factors such as regulations of aviation authorities and development of aircraft technologies. However, it is possible to say that the rate of decrease in aviation accidents is lower in line with the growth rate of the aviation sector. In line with the data obtained from aviation accidents reports, causes of accidents are investigated and discussed in various dimensions. One of the reasons that attract attention to the public opinion is the pilot error. In this study, the concepts of aviation accident, pilot error, accident causes are examined and the results of the studies are compiled from descriptive point of view. As a result of the research, it was found that the causes of accidents could be embraced under different dimensions at the same time and demographic variables related to pilot error do not have universal characteristics.
