Enhancing aviation safety: Uncovering human error patterns and mitigating risks

Human factors are the application of scientific insights concerning people and systems to optimize system performance. Given that human beings are integral to every aspect of systems, the potential for human errors stemming from stress, fatigue, or complacency is significant. In aviation, where errors can lead to catastrophic consequences, it is imperative to take comprehensive preventive measures. Our objective is to analyze major human factors issues contributing to aviation accidents, identifying patterns, and generating recommendations to enhance safety regulations and prevent future accidents. Additionally, we aim to assess the financial impact of accidents on the aviation industry. By thoroughly reviewing various accidents and their primary causes, the paper seeks to understand how to mitigate and reduce future incidents. Improved aviation safety benefits airlines, passengers, airports, governments, and regulatory agencies. They can utilize the findings of this paper to enhance aviation regulations and ensure a safer mode of transportation
