Development of a Safety Performance Decision-Making Tool for Flight Training Organizations

Abstract

The purpose of the research was to transform a non-statistical risk score model composed of 12 Safety Perfomrance Indicators (SPIs) into a predictive, safety performance decision-making tool. The model uses what-if scenarios to evaluate how changing controllable input variables affect the level of operational risk within the system. These risk score outputs provide a keen insight into the overall level of risk within the organization.
