‘Inappropriate’
The NTSB faulted the 737 crew’s decision to land on a short runway with a tail wind in conditions conducive to wind shear.
Accident/Incident Investigation
‘Something Unexpected’
When the drone did not respond to pilot efforts to reduce power, the pilot used an automatic mode switch to direct it away from people gathered at an Australian airport, the ATSB says.
‘Effective Listening’
The close encounter of an EMS helicopter and a Piper Seminole prompted the ATSB to encourage pilots to be more attentive to radio transmissions.
‘Astounded’
The pilots of a 737 failed to realize they were beginning their takeoff on a taxiway, the Dutch Safety Board says; the pilots say lights and markings were unclear.
Opposites
The BEA is investigating what it calls a serious incident in which the pilots of a 777 applied opposing control inputs during a go-around.
Incapacitation
NTSB investigators blame the pilot’s sudden cardiac event for the crash of an emergency medical services helicopter.
