Learning Outcomes

Participants will develop the skills needed to conduct comprehensive investigations of aviation accidents involving fixed-wing aircraft, rotary-wing aircraft, and unmanned aerial systems (UAS). They will learn methodologies for evidence collection, analysis of causal factors, and preparation of detailed accident reports. By the end of the course, participants will be equipped to apply investigative techniques to enhance aviation safety.

Focus Points

This course emphasizes accident investigation processes, including site management, evidence preservation, and human factors analysis. It covers advanced techniques for analyzing mechanical failures, operational errors, and environmental conditions. Participants will explore case studies involving fixed-wing, rotary-wing, and UAS accidents to gain practical, industry-relevant insights.

Participants

Designed for aviation professionals, safety officers, and investigators, this course is ideal for those involved in accident investigation or safety management. A foundational knowledge of aviation operations and safety principles is recommended. However, the course is accessible to anyone seeking expertise in aviation accident investigation methodologies.
