Accident-Prones Pilots

Hello,
According to James reason, PhD, formely affiliated with the department of Psychology at the University of Manchester and recognized as one of the world's leading authorities on human error, organizations with a "manifest lack of organizational safety culture" are much more likely to have higher accident rates. Closely related to this is a group norm that accepts violations as normal conduct, and a perception that bending rules will be tolerated and even celebrated. Dr Reason's extensive research in human error has also found that organizations with poor supervision and checking, as well as a perceived lack of management care and concern also contribute to a propensity for accidents.
Do you see something familiar?
It seems that we are in such a group and our organization doesn't seems too concerned with flight safety.
Just think about it! Each time we are flying we might be in the next incident or accident.
Happy flying!
