Fatigue e conseguenze correlate

Unstable approaches are known to be a hazard to aircraft operations. According to the International Air Transport Association, between 2012–2016, there was an average of 6 accidents per year, which were preceded by an unstable approach.[9] The Flight Safety Foundation approach-and-landing accident reduction task force identified several factors that contributed to unstable approaches, which included:

- crew fatigue
- crew or air traffic control-induced circumstances resulting in insufficient time to plan, prepare and conduct a safe approach, which includes accepting requests from controllers to fly higher/faster or to fly shorter routings than desirednot recognising deviations
- not adhering to parameter-deviation limits
- belief that the aircraft will be stabilised at the minimum stabilisation height or shortly thereafter
- confidence by the PM that the PF will achieve a timely stabilisation.
