Aeronautical Decision Making
Poor decision making is the root cause of many—if not most—aviation accidents. Good decision making, on the other hand, is about avoiding the circumstances that lead to really tough choices. The goal is very simple: Learn to make good choices every time you fly. This Safety Center brings together relevant safety courses and quizzes to help you hone this single most important safety skill.
