Understanding and Supporting Aircraft Accident Investigation and Reconstruction
Aircraft accident and incident investigations should be supported by all engineering disciplines and departments involved with design, manufacturing, certification, and field operations. For individuals called upon to serve as advisors or technical representatives to official aircraft accident investigation (AAI) teams, an understanding of accident and wreckage reconstruction methodologies and processes is critical to success in this supportive role.
This two-day seminar will begin with basic investigative philosophies and procedures. The instructor will then guide participants through various basic data gathering methods that cover specific types of accident investigations, which include human factors, crashworthiness, fire and explosions, in-flight breakups, and mid-air collisions. Presentations are based on actual accidents and real-life investigation experiences and AAI case studies are integrated throughout the course to provide participants the knowledge required to effectively support aircraft accident and wreckage reconstruction.
