\subsection{Checklists}
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item Checklists have been shown to aid in minimizing human errors~\cite{manifesto}
|
||||
\item However, checklists can be misleading and compromise the safety of the aircraft
|
||||
due to them being either too confusing or taking too long to complete~\cite{nasa-design}
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\item However, according to the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), the UK's aviation regulator:
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item Checklists can be misleading and compromise the safety of the aircraft
|
||||
due to them being either too confusing or taking too long to complete~\cite{nasa:design}
|
||||
\item Other problems may include the crew skipping a step either unintentionally or by interruption,
|
||||
or just failing to complete the checklist outright
|
||||
\item The crew may also not be alerted to performance issues within the aircraft,
|
||||
that running the checklist may cause~\cite{caa:design}
|
||||
\end{itemize}
|
||||
|
||||
\item That is why testing checklists are important to avoid these situations
|
||||
|
||||
\item However, it is important to note that checklists does not prevent the human
|
||||
factor of failure to use a checklist, like in the case of Northwest Airlines
|
||||
Flight 255, where the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), an investigatory board
|
||||
for aviation accidents in the United States, determined that
|
||||
\enquote{the probable cause of the accident was the flight crew's failure
|
||||
to use the taxi checklist to ensure that the flaps and slats were extended for takeoff.}~\cite{ntsb:NWA255}

||||
