Safer Skies The Safer Skies agenda originated in 1998 when the Administrator and her team identified the most critical and most common causes for aviation accidents.
2
Risk Management The Safer Skies program in general is about identifying risk issues and doing something about them.
3
Aviation Weather 27% of all aviation accidents are weather- related, and that over 90% of all weather accidents were caused by pilot error, deficiencies in pilot judgment, and shortcomings having to do with any number of other problems of pilot origin 27%

Information Management A pilot needs to go beyond just knowing about weather;
6
Information Management A pilot needs to know how to plan for it and deal with it in the course of a flight
7
Pilot Responsibility It’s not weather that crashes airplanes... It’s pilots making bad decisions about weather
10
PPP A simple way to apply the decision making process is the three P’s... Perceive, Process, Perform
