Howzit Everyone,

As the topic states, hope this is the correct place to be posting such a question, if not please inform me as to the correct forum!

I am currently a second year uni student in the UK, Currently studying Aircraft Engineering with pilot Studies. One of my modules is Human Factors and CRM, and one of my assignments to a report and presentation on an aircrash.

I have been assigned the Air Ontario F28 flight 1363 on the 10th of March 1989 acciedent, aka the Dryden Accident.

I currently have reems of print offs from the net, including the Commission of Inquiry report, as well as some smaller summary paragraphs of the events of that day. My hope was that I could gain some more insight from people on PPRuNe, perhaps some useful snippits of info that would be of use. I thank anyone that replies in advance for anything they may post, it will be much appreciated.

Cheers:)

Some people on here were flying in that area of Ontario back then you might get someone to help you with first hand info. However the Moshansky commision's report will have more than ample info for your report. Human factors long duty days christmas eve etc. Good luck.

I was involved in Flight Safety at the time, and what the previous poster said is absolutely true. All that you could/would/should ever need IS in the Moshansky report. It is probably one of the most complete and exhaustive accident reports filed anywhere.

For a historic aside -- Justice Moshansky was appointed to conduct a judicial investigation in the interregnum between the CASB and TSB. Some of the CASB board members had engineering backgrounds and wanted to be more than the Chairman's rubber stamps.

Former board member, Les Filotas wrote a book Improbable Cause around the Gander investigation.

Anyone post a link to the Moshansky report? I'd like to read it.

Plato your best source are the forums at www.avcanada.ca
Many on there are in the ranks of small local operators as opposed to the airlines.

Good luck with your research. :ok:

Thanks very much for all your posts, Will continue on along the path I have started and use the report as suggested.

Just to confirm, I have found a report on this at this web address,

http://www.crm-devel.org/resources/crmadvocate/95_1/95_1.htm

About halfway down the page.

I am not convinced that it is the official report, however it is the closest I have been able to get.

Cheers Again

The official report is 4 volumes, and I have never seen it on the Net.

Some printed copies are usually to found at E-Bay or here:

Here is an 8 page presentation by the judge himself:
