Hi, everybody,
Despite I am a professional Pilot engaged in CRM facilitation, I feel great
when we find cases of Study of the common life or becoming from different
fields, that is helpful to probe that CRM is not only for flying but for
living too.
Additionally, when a true accident case is used as study case Pilot
invariably try to see first, what should they do in crew's place instead to
learn the CRM aspects on the case.
I personally would like to have more non-aviation related cases as a
complement of Av.'s one to be used in mixed classes ( pilots, attendants,
technicians, dispatchers etc.) Thoughts?
