What means can be used to combat human error? 2, 3 and 4 1, 2 and 4 3 and 4 1 and 2
-1 : Reducing error-prone mechanisms.
-2 : Improving the way in which error is taken into
account in training.
-3 : Sanctions against the initiators of error.
-4 : Improving recovery from errors and its
consequences.

The combination of correct statements is:

3020 40 0
What are the main consequences of latent errors? 1 and 3 2, 3 and 4 1,2 and 4 1 and 2
They:
-1 : remain undetected in the system for a certain
lenght of time.
-2 : may only manifest themselves under certainl
conditions.
-3 : are quickly detectable by the front-line operator
whose mental
schemas on the instantaneous situation filter out
formal errors.
-4 : lull the pilots into security.

The correct statement(s) is (are):

3021 40 0
What are the various means which allow for better error 3 and 4 1, 2 and 3 1and 3 2, 3 and 4

-1 : Improvement of the man-machine interface.
-2 : Development of systems for checking the
consistency of
situations.
-3 : Compliance with cross-over redundant procedures
by the
crew.
-4 : Adaptation of visual alarms to all systems.

The correct statement(s) is (are):

3022 40 0
A system is all the more reliable if it offers good 3 and 4 2 and 4 1, 2 and 4 1 and 3
detectability. The latter is the result of:
-1 : tolerance of the various systems to errors.
-2 : the sum of the automatic monitoring, detection and
warning facilities.
-3 : the reliability of the Man-Man and Man-Machine
links.
-4 : the alerting capability of the Man-Machine
interface.

Why must flight safety considerations consider the 2 and 4 1 and 4 2 and 3 3 and 4
human error mechanism?
-1 : It is analysis of an incident or accident which will
make it
possible to identify what error has been committed
and by
whom. It is the process whereby the perpetrator is
made
responsible which may lead to elimination of the
error.
-2 : If we have a better understanding of the cognitive
error
mechanism, it will be possible to adapt procedures,
aircraft
interfaces, etc.
-3 : It is error management procedure which enables us
to
continuously adjust our actions. The better we
understand the
underlying mechanism of an error, the better will
be our means
for detecting and adapting future errors.
-4 : Since error is essentially human, once it has been
identified by
the use of procedures, a person will be able to
anticipate and
deal with it automatically in the future.
