Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: With the development of aviation transportation in the world, the number of aircraft accidents has also increased numerically. Although as a result of technological advances the equipment and reliability of aircraft have increased technically, errors and violations caused by human factors involving air traffic controllers and pilots as the main actors of aviation, continue to exist as serious causes of accidents. When serious aviation incidents resulting from the execution of air traffic control services are examined, factors such as lack of communication, lack of teamwork, lack of positive safety culture, organizational functioning, stress/chronic fatigue, situational awareness and inadequate supervision appear to be of serious importance in causing accidents/incidents. The study aims to determine the factors that are likely to cause accidents/ incidents by examining the serious aviation incidents caused by air traffic that occurred and recorded in the world between 2012 and 2022, and to offer suggestions to reduce risks to an acceptable level by taking precautions before accidents/ incidents occur in accordance with a proactive approach.
