A proposed flight safety program for the Korean Air Force.

Abstract

Several methodologies relevant to the development of a safety program for the Korean Air Force were reviewed. Methodologies considered included; 1) Control charts 2) System safety analysis 3) Critical incident technique. Data collection methods applicable to accident analysis were proposed. Recommendations for the incorporation of these methods into a safety program for the K.A.F. were developed. The safety program described in the current thesis possesses the potential for reducing overall operational costs and maximizing aircraft availability. The end result of such a program can only serve to increase operational readiness and thereby maximize overall efficiency and military capability of the K.A.F.
