I've clearly hit a nerve with some of you. I didn't plan on turning the thread into a 072 discussion board. Someone asked me to elaborate on a comment I made earlier which I did.
GulfAir CEO, I think your a little wide off the mark to suggest it was all down to the individual. The accident reports showed that GF's safety culture was a
contributing factor to the chain of errors. Why do you think JH went about revamping the company's SMS? using BASIS, revamping AQP, CRM, LOFT?
Why was there a need for JH to introduce a non-reprisal policy on open reporting?
It's because the old safety culture stank and needed changing.
"The investigation showed that all the latent organisational and management conditions that had precipitated the GF 072 accident were present long before the accident" Section B-01-8 of the report
Right, can we go back to discussing the dangers of flying into a war zone?
