Aircraft accident investigations have indicated the necessity of a deeper evaluation of the role of the pilot during failure conditions. The current guidance for safety assessment does not provide a structured methodology to perform such evaluation. This paper proposes to use the PCM structure to establish a framework for the evaluation of pilot recognition and response to failure conditions.
