The Flight Safety Foundation–Airbus Human Factors in Aviation Safety
Award was established in 1999 to recognize “outstanding achievement
in human factors contributions to aviation safety.” The award was
instituted to encourage human factors research that would help reduce
human error — one of the most common elements in aviation accidents.
The award — instituted by the Foundation and sponsored by Airbus
— is presented to an individual, group or organization for a one-time
contribution or sustained contributions in the field of human factors.
The award includes an elegant engraved wooden plaque.
The nominating deadline is January 14, 2008; the award is presented
at the FSF European Aviation Safety Seminar.
