Intentional Safety: A Reflection on Unsafe Flight

Despite repeated assurances that flying is safe, hardly a day goes by without a fatal aircraft crash. Many programmes have been published in an attempt to eliminate aircraft "accidents" but the problem still exists, apparently unabated.

On a daily basis new pilots are injected into the aviation scene. Their safety consciousness is limited by the experience of their tutors. Intentional Safety is not taught. And so the cycle continues.

This book does not skirt around the problem using non-specific, moderate impact generalities. It is a concise, pointed and hard-hitting attack on the problem.

It is aimed at every level of aviation. Note it and live.

About the Author

Max Collins is a 23,500 accident free pilot. Over forty-eight flying years he has flown in the Royal Australian Air Force, Cathay Pacific Airways and Ansett Australia, in which he was Flight Operations Manager. He has also managed a corporate flight department, operated ultralight aircraft, taught Commercial Pilot Licence subjects to airline cadets and has been Manager Safety and Standards and Chief Pilot for a very large airline training school.

His priority has always been intentional safety. He was appointed flight safety officer at all units in which he served in the RAAF.

This book is his response to dismay at the seemingly endless succession of aircraft crashes.
