ERRORS FROM ENGINEERING IN FLIGHT SAFETY

R.B. Parra¹, J. Laguardia¹; ¹FUMEC University, Brazil

This study aims to demonstrate that the errors of action, decision and those of cognitive origin, did not reduce with the aircraft automation. The use of electronic engineering like robotics and mechatronics assisting pilots' decisions and actions would not drastically reduce procedural failures in aircraft piloting. The predominance of certain types of failures is significant since the time of non-automated aircraft and continue to occur in the automation phases until nowadays
