Effects of Meteorology Data on Crew Resource Management in Aviation
Özet
Risks associated with meteorology must be continuously assessed and carefully managed
by the flight crew to ensure the safety of flights. This study aims to examine meteorological
events’ favorable and unfavorable effects on crew resource management in recent aviation
operations. The face-to-face interview technique, one of the qualitative research methods,
was used, and data were collected in light of the information obtained from the pilot pool
of 50 people. In the study, the opinions of the crews on what kind of flight management and
data analysis application they carried out were taken, accompanied by questions directed
through meteorology, flight safety, and crew resource management factors. The collected
data were analyzed by content analysis method. As a result of the analysis, it was concluded
that theoretical knowledge of stress management and a good analysis of meteorology is of
vital importance. It has been evaluated that accidents and incidents that occur indirectly in
aviation in meteorology can be prevented entirely, and by drawing attention to the
importance of the crew resource management factor, it has been concluded that they can be
prevented by working together with advanced meteorology systems and an up-to-the-date
training.
