FLIGHT EMERGENCIES e-book

Only 7% of flight crews handle non-textbook emergencies well (NASA TM 2005-213462). This suggests that 93% of flight crews are underprepared to handle emergencies.

The e-book "Flight Emergencies" addresses the lesser-known knowledge that jet aircraft pilots must have to survive critical emergencies and presents solutions.

This 35-year study examines the information collected from hundreds of accident investigations. Through multiple narratives, it establishes the relationship between a concept and real-world events (incidents), effectively promoting a more complete understanding and retention for a longer period. The study explains the operational reasons for performing specific procedures and skipping others, and clarifies how to accomplish them.
