17. UA Flight 173 Background: A Portland Crash and a Wake-up Call for the Aviation Industry
On December 28, 1978, the crew of United Airlines Flight 173, preparing to land in Portland, Oregon, felt a jolt when the landing gear was lowered.
The captain decided to take some time before landing to troubleshoot the landing gear.
Approximately 23 minutes later, the aircraft crashed into the woods about 6 miles south of the airport.
The landing gear was not the cause of the crash!
The airplane ran out of fuel while the crew was troubleshooting the landing gear.
From the wreckage of United 173, the new discipline of Crew Resource Management (CRM) was born.
United Airlines created a program to teach pilots about the most complex systems in their airplanes – the pilots themselves.
United’s program is now called C/L/R (Command/Leadership/Resource Management).

20. Describe the evolving concepts of Crew Resource Management.
A) Give examples of Crew Monitoring and Cross-Checking.
B) Give examples of Joint CRM Training.
C) Give examples of Error Management.
D) Give examples of Advanced CRM.
E) Give examples of Culture issues.

22. Give examples of Crew Monitoring and Cross-Checking.
Several studies of crew performance, incidents, and accidents have identified inadequate flightcrew monitoring and cross-checking as a problem for aviation safety.
Therefore, to ensure the highest levels of safety, each flight crewmember must carefully monitor the aircraft’s flight path and systems and actively cross-check the actions of other crewmembers.

23. Give examples of Crew Monitoring and Cross-Checking.
Effective monitoring and cross-checking can be the last line of defense that prevents an accident because detecting an error or unsafe situation may break the chain of events leading to an accident.
This monitoring function is always essential, and particularly so during approach and landing when controlled flight into terrain (CFIT) accidents are most common.

25. Give examples of Joint CRM Training.
More carriers are discovering the value of expanding CRM training to reach various employee groups beyond flightcrew and flight attendants.
Dissimilar groups are being brought together in CRM training and in other activities.
The objective is to improve the effectiveness and safety of the entire operations team as a working system.

26. Give examples of Joint CRM Training.
Dedicated CRM training courses for maintenance personnel have been operating since 1991.
Even broader cross-pollination of CRM concepts has been considered, using other groups such as passenger service agents, mid- and upper-level managers, and special crisis teams like hijack and bomb-threat teams.

27. Give examples of Joint CRM Training.
Topics for joint training include:
(a) Pre-flight briefings;
(b) Post incident/accident procedures;
(c) Sterile cockpit procedures;
(d) Notification procedures (pre-takeoff and pre-landing);
(e) Procedures for turbulence and other weather;
(f) Security procedures

29. Give examples of Joint CRM Training.
(g) Passenger-handling procedures;
(h) In-flight medical problems;
(i) Smoke/fire procedures;
(j) Passenger-related regulations:
such as those relating to smoking
exit row seating
carry-on baggage
(k) Authority of the pilot in command.

30. Give examples of Error Management.
It is now understood that pilot errors cannot be entirely eliminated.
It is important, therefore, that pilots develop appropriate error management skills and procedures.
It is certainly desirable to prevent as many errors as possible, but since they cannot all be prevented, detection and recovery from errors should be addressed in training.
Evaluation of pilots should also consider error management (error prevention, detection, and recovery).
Evaluation should recognize that since not all errors can be prevented, it is important that errors be managed properly.

32. Give examples of Advanced CRM.
CRM performance requirements or procedures are being integrated into the SOPs of certain air carriers.
Specific callouts, checks, and guidance have been included in normal checklists, the quick-reference handbook (QRH), abnormal/emergency procedures, manuals, and job aids.
This integration captures CRM principles into explicit procedures used by flightcrews.

33. Give examples of Culture issues.
While individuals and even teams of individuals may perform well under many conditions, they are subject to the influence of at least three cultures – the professional cultures of the individuals themselves, the cultures of their organizations, and the national cultures surrounding the individuals and their organizations.
If not recognized and addressed, factors related to culture may degrade crew performance.
Hence, effective CRM training must address culture issues, as appropriate in each training population.
