The World Pilots’ Day is celebrated every year on 26 April, to recognize the many contributions of pilots who safely connect millions of passengers around the world every year. The International Federation of Air Line Pilots Association (IFALPA) selected 26 April to highlight the inaugural flight of Mehmet Fesa Evrensev, who on this very day in 1912, took his first flight. This young pilot played a significant role in the development of aviation since the early 1910s, and became the first president of Turkish Airlines in 1933. We at Avports have the honor of counting many pilots in our team, and are very grateful to all of them, including those pilots flying in and out of our managed airports. Their constant commitment to excellence in safety is outstanding. Working together and recognising all members of the aviation family is our passion. It’s #theavportsway! #pilots #airports #aviation #worldpilotsday2024 #safetyexcellence

Informative guidelines on fatigue reporting by IFALPA... It has been my experience that flight crews understand and are concerned about the schedule disruption for their crew and passengers along with the increased costs to the airline and harm to its reputation with the impacted customers for fatigue delays. Pilots in general are reluctant to use the fatigue call and approach its use in a professional manner. Assessing fatigue risk should be a proactive threat exercise by an operator recognizing the on duty time, length of duty, weather, and operational delays that can affect the performance of their flight crews. It is important for any airline to let their pilots know that they are not to be operating flights while impaired by fatigue, (from the CEO downward and especially their Chief Pilot), that there can be circumstances that occur outside the control of the crewmember, and the reason for post incident reporting is to understand, not criticize, or affect the crewmembers employment or reputation. Early communication, if possible, for a fatigue call will allow the airline or operator to adjust hopefully with minimal impact to the customers, however let's leave the report writing until after sufficient recovery rest is completed and the crewmember declares they are fit for duty.

Breaking News: Europe's largest regional aviation platform is born as the owners of Air Nostrum and CityJet come together to establish the Strategic Alliance of Regional Airlines (SARA). This groundbreaking alliance comprises three airlines, an aircraft maintenance company, a crew training center, and four other aviation industry service providers. Under the leadership of Chairman Carlos Bertomeu, SARA commences operations with an impressive fleet of 74 regional aircraft and plans to expand to 100 aircraft within the next three years. Notably, Air Nostrum's shareholders hold an 80% stake in SARA, with CityJet's shareholders owning the remaining 20%. #simbuddy #aviation #aviationnews #airlines #pilots #aircrew #aviationindustry #captains #captain #fo #firstofficers #firstofficer #airlineindustry #cityjet #aircraftmaintenance #linemaintenance #atc #AirTrafficControl #airtrafficcontroller #luchtvaart #cabin #crew #cabincrew #flightattendant #flightattendants #bombardier #boeing #airbus #embraer #pilot

Safety in aviation is paramount! One pilot is not enough when it comes to moving cargo or passengers in big airplanes. There are little airplanes that one pilot is okay, even though it would be safer with two. I just don’t understand how this can be a question.

Commercial Pilot. Licences from Republic of Maldives, USA & Trinidad and Tobago ( Common Wealth ). Currently working on my DGCA licence.
This is Purely my Opinion and Sentiment. And I Will not fly in an aircraft if there is no Two well qualified human pilots aboard the aircraft to fly them. The absolute assurance of having two human pilots aboard and flying the aircraft at all times is a cornerstone of modern aviation safety. The presence of two qualified pilots ensures redundancy, allowing for human judgment and error correction, which are critical in managing complex, dynamic situations that arise during flights. This dual-pilot system is underpinned by the principles of Crew Resource Management (CRM), a set of training procedures that focus on effective communication, situational awareness, problem-solving, and teamwork. CRM has been instrumental in reducing human error and enhancing safety by fostering a collaborative environment where both pilots actively participate in decision-making processes. The importance of two pilots cannot be overstated. In emergency situations, the presence of a second pilot provides an essential layer of safety. The second pilot acts as a check and balance, catching mistakes, confirming decisions, and providing support under stress. This collaborative dynamic is vital for handling emergencies, unexpected technical failures, and complex weather conditions. Moreover, the combined experience and judgment of two pilots are irreplaceable assets in ensuring the safety of passengers and crew. While advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and automation have transformed many industries, the idea of AI completely taking over the roles of pilots is met with skepticism and concern. AI lacks the intuitive understanding, emotional intelligence, and adaptive reasoning that human pilots possess. Human pilots can interpret subtle cues and respond to unforeseen circumstances in ways that AI, with its reliance on pre-programmed algorithms and data, simply cannot. The trust in human pilots is rooted in their ability to adapt, improvise, and apply critical thinking—skills that are beyond the reach of current AI technology. The aviation community and passengers alike often express a strong sentiment that AI cannot be trusted with flying aircraft alone. The unpredictability of real-world scenarios and the need for nuanced judgment make human oversight indispensable. While AI can assist and enhance pilot capabilities, it cannot replace the human element that is essential for safe and reliable air travel. The assurance of having two human pilots aboard provides a sense of security and confidence that technology alone cannot replicate.

Comparto plenamente la idea que expone este señor, se trata de ayudas que nos facilitan la toma de decisiones, pero no pueden sustituir al ser humano en ese punto. Definetely agree to the point perfectly explained by this CEO...welcome to all the helpfull technology existing in Aviation Industry, that can be used in the making decision process, but never should be attempted to as a replacement of the human brain nor compare to it's capabilities.

“You can never replace human judgment with a machine” a machine can be programmed to assist the flying crew, and the ground crew but the truth remains that it can never take the place of man. it will be a great risk if the industry starts to adopt the use of AI in the cockpit, as this will only encourage complete complacency among the crew. once they noticed that AI responded well the first fifth weeks or months, they will completely become incompetents in managing risk due to full trust in the AI. Such risk shouldn’t be considered at all in the industry, and risk assessment must be a priority in every airline. #aviation #pilot #deltairline #aviationdaily #crew #Britishairways
