The Wrong Stuff

Airline mishaps and 'pilot error".

This is one of the 12 DVDs in the acclaimed BBC series now available in a totally new format with expert training support material.

'The Wrong Stuff' is a composite video capturing issues associated with psychological profiles of pilots and highlights several basic differences between military fighters and commercial pilots.

 
Unlike other DVDs in the BBC Disaster series, which focus on one particular disaster, this DVD chooses a number of airline mishaps to underscore issues associated with so called 'pilot error' and the possibilities of engineering such error out of the system.
 
Drawing on a number of actual and potentially damaging occurrences involving airlines industry investigators looked at the four out of five outcomes that indicated 'pilot error' and realised the situation needed a closer look.
 
The title of the video 'The Wrong Stuff' is used as a counterfoil to the fighter pilot concept of 'The Right Stuff'... which depicts a rugged competitive individual who, through sheer determination and will pushes through seemingly impregnable barriers to achieve desired outcomes.
