Crew Resource Management
Using the CRM resources provided within the Syllabus, research the history and evolution of CRM in aviation. Next, evaluate the role of CRM principles in several prominent commercial aviation accidents:
The deadly collision between 2 Boeing 747s on Tenerife Island on March 27th, 1977
United Flight 232 at Sioux City Iowa on July 19, 1989
US Air Flight 1549 at LaGuardia on January 15, 2009
In a two to four page paper, describe how CRM was different between the crews on Tenerife Island and the latter two accidents. Specifically, is there evidence of lessons learned from Tenerife that were applied in the in UAL 232 and USAir 1549? How did coordination and resource use differ between these accidents and how did it affect the outcome? Cite your sources appropriately.
