PT3 CHP12 Aeronautical Decision Making (ADM) Flashcards
What is Aeronautical Decision Making (ADM)?
The process required to make aeronautical decisions (common sense and experience in addition to concepts)
When do the majority of accidents occur?
Landing (24%) and Takeoff (23%)
When and why was ADM introduced?
25 years ago, to help decrease accidents caused by human factors
- Designed to improve the decision-making of pilots
- Pilots who receive ADM training made 10-50% fewer judgement error
What are the steps of decision making?
- Identify: personal attitudes (egos)
- Learn: behavior modification techniques
- Learn: how to recognize and cope with stress - Develop: risk assessment skills
- Use: all available resources (CRM and single-pilot resource management)
- Evaluate: the effectiveness of your ADM skills
What is the goal of risk management?
Identify and mitigate the associated risk
What is the risk management process?
- Identify the hazard
- Access the risk associated with the hazard
- Analyze the controls, what can we do to prevent the hazard and risk
- Make control decisions, action something
- Use controls, do the action
- Monitor results, ensure whatever was done fixed the problem/risk
What are the four fundamentals to risk management?
- Accept no unnecessary risk
- Make risk decision at the appropriate level
- Weigh risk/danger (cost) with benefits
- Integrate risk management into planning at all levels
What is Crew Resource Management (CRM)?
The effective use of all available resources – human, hardware, and information – prior to and during flight to ensure the successful outcome of the operation
What is Single-Pilot Resource Management?
- The art of managing all available resources
i. ADM
ii. Risk management (RM)
iii. Task management (TM)
iv. Automation management (AM)
v. Controlled Flight into Terrain (CFIT) Awareness
vi. Situational Awareness (SA)
What is the difference between hazard and risk?
- Hazard: real or perceived condition, event, or circumstances that a pilot encounters
- Risk: the assigned value to the potential impact of a hazard
i. Airplane approaching you head on
1. Hazard: the plane coming toward you
2. Risk: the airplane will hit us
What is the first step to neutralize hazards?
Recognition of hazardous thoughts
What are the 5 hazardous attitudes?
Anti-authority, impulsivity, invulnerability, macho and resignation
What is an example of an anti-authority hazardous attitude?
“Don’t tell me.”
What is an example of an impulsivity hazardous attitude?
“Do it quickly.”
What is an example of an invulnerability hazardous attitude?
“It won’t happen to me.”
What is an example of a macho hazardous attitude?
“I can do it.”
What is an example of a resignation hazardous attitude?
“What’s the use?”

Those who do not like anyone telling them what to do
What is the definition of an impulsivity hazardous attitude?
Those who feel the need to do something, anything, immediately
What is the definition of an invulneribilty hazardous attitude?

Those who are trying to prove they are better than anyone else. “Watch this!”
What is the definition of a resignation hazardous attitude?
Those who do not see themselves making a difference
What is the antidote for an anti-authority hazardous attitude?
Follow the rules. They are usually right.
What is the antidote for an impulsivity hazardous attitude?
Not so fast. Think first.
