Good Day All:
While attending the Ohio State Ninth International Symposium on Aviation
Psychology, I attended a session, and came away with a paper, by Mark
B.Klair, of FEDEX, on "Briefing Techniques for Instructors in Aviation".
The methodology contained under the title has been used, according to
the writer, with success in mediated debriefs of actual flights where
incidents occurred and flight violations were pending. The paper was
submitted to Dr.Key Dismukes NASA's Aerospace Human Factors Research
Division. In the absence of an address for Mr.Klair, Dr.Dismukes might
be the best source.
As a TRM developer for NAV CANADA, I have found the paper quite
interesting, with potential for air traffic services incident debriefs
from the HF side.
