Is it Safe? The Safety Assessment of Aircraft Systems

Abstract

This is the first of a series of articles about the methods used to achieve high safety standards in civil aircraft which employ complex systems. The topic is a large one, and some of the procedures of safety assessment are elaborate. The basic principles are, however, straightforward, and the purpose of these articles is to present a general picture of what is involved.
