FSF-Airbus Human Factors in Aviation Safety Award
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 engraved wooden plaque.
This award will next be presented in 2012 at the FSF European Aviation Safety Seminar.
