5. Cross-cultural Factors in Aviation Safety
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents the safety case for the consideration of cross-cultural factors in aviation by focusing on cultural interfaces, those situations where members of one culture encounter people or artifacts from other cultures. Global aviation is strongly influenced by the USA and Western Europe as the largest manufacturers and largest customers; hence almost all cultural interfaces are weighted in favor of the dominant users. The challenge for safety is not to ignore or eliminate these interfaces but tomanage the potential threats they pose. To move forward, there is a role for those inside and outside the dominant model.

متن کاملThe change trend and influencing factors of civil aviation safety efficiency: The case of Chinese airline companies
While the issue of civil aviation safety has attracted serious public concern, notably few studies have investigated civil aviation safety efficiency. In this paper, a definition of civil aviation safety efficiency is proposed for the first time. Inputs to the proposed civil aviation safety efficiency model are labor, capital, fund and technology. The outputs are the percent of the passenger tu...
