Aviation safety is the science and practice of risk management in aviation. It includes the prevention of aviation accidents and incidents through research, education of aviation personnel, passengers and the general public, and the design of aircraft and aviation infrastructure. The aviation industry is subject to considerable regulation and supervision. Despite this, aviation incidents continually occur. Most of these are of low consequence and involve only the loss of money or the temporary frightening of the crew and bystanders. Unfortunately, there are also accidents in which people die, and this loss is already unimaginably high. The chapter covers topics that include an analysis of aviation incidents, comparing the type of incident, the causes of the incident and the consequences the incident has caused. Also the models of safety management in aviation are presented and compared, so that the number of unsafe situations can be significantly reduced.

The sole purpose of air accident investigations should be the prevention of accidents and other incidents in the future, without apportioning blame or liability. A civil aviation safety system is based on feedback and lessons learned from accidents and incidents, while requiring the strict application of rules on confidentiality in order to ensure the availability of valuable sources of information in the future. Therefore, related data, especially sensitive safety information, should be protected in an appropriate manner. Information provided by an individual in the framework of a safety investigation should not be used against them, in full respect of constitutional principles, and national and international law. Each “involved person” who knows about an accident or serious incident should promptly notify the competent state authority for carrying out an investigation of the event. “Involved person” refers to one of the following: the owner; a member of the crew; the operator of the aircraft involved in an accident or serious incident; any person involved in the maintenance, design, manufacture of that aircraft or in the training of its crew; any person involved in air traffic control, providing flight information or providing airport services, which provided services for the aircraft concerned; staff of the national civil aviation authority; or staff of the European Aviation Safety Agency. In terms of the protection level of the organization (employer), employees who report an event or submit an application to the investigation cannot bear any prejudice from their employer because of information provided by the applicant. The protection does not cover (exclusions): infringement with wilful misconduct (direct intent, recklessness infringement); infringement committed by a clear and serious disregard of the obvious risks; and serious professional negligence, i.e., the failure to provide unquestionably duty of care required under the circumstances, causing possible or actual damage to persons or property leading the level of aviation safety being seriously compromised. All employees in the aviation sector, regardless of their function, have safety-related duties and are therefore critical to the security of the entire civil aviation system. The safety of this system requires that any event that has or may have an impact on security in aviation should be reported voluntarily and without delay, because it is necessary to conduct an appropriate investigation in order to increase the level of safety. “Just Culture” is the basic premise for the effective functioning of the reporting of events required for all aviation organizations in order to maintain and raise the safety level. As safety management is based on precise data, it is necessary to introduce appropriate procedures, which allow for obtaining information not only about the events that have already occurred, but also about any other events that could potentially cause hazardous conditions. All the procedures and rules of operation relating to the policy of Just Culture should be constructed so that they not only comply with the provisions of applicable law, but are also rational and understandable by all stakeholders, as well as provide certain comfort and confidentiality to persons reporting events that affect airline safety. Changes in the existing legal system should be established in cooperation with all concerned institutions: law enforcement, including the courts and public prosecution, aviation insurers, the Aircraft Accident Investigation Commission and other entities. Is it possible to reconcile the interests of the so-called culture of aviation safety, i.e., Just Culture, with the requirements of the above-mentioned institutions and traders involved in the implementation of air transport and the exploration of the effects of aerial surveys? The answers to this and similar questions will be widely presented in this article.

Najwyższym priorytetem w lotnictwie jest bezpieczeństwo. Przewozy lotnicze należą do najbardziej bezpiecznych środków transportu. Jest to efekt nieustannych działań mających na celu eliminację źródeł potencjalnych zagrożeń we wszystkich obszarach związanych z wykonywaniem operacji lotniczych. Kluczowa rola w tej mierze przypada producentowi statku powietrznego (SP). To on odpowiada za projekt i konstrukcję nowo budowanego samolotu lub śmigłowca oraz za proces jego produkcji. Na nim spoczywa obowiązek prowadzenia nadzoru nad przebiegiem eksploatacji. W artykule zdefiniowano źródła potencjalnych zagrożeń dla bezpieczeństwa operacji lotniczych, które leżą w zakresie kompetencji producenta SP. Należą do nich m.in. błędy w projektowaniu i konstruowaniu, wady produkcyjne, niewłaściwe prowadzenie badań i prób dowodowych, błędy i braki w dokumentacji opisowo-eksploatacyjnej i programach szkolenia, a także niedostateczny nadzór nad procesem eksploatacji. W artykule omówiono potencjalne źródła zagrożeń związanych z fazą projektowania i konstruowania statku powietrznego, a także przedstawiono przykłady błędów i zaniedbań w tej dziedzinie. Zawarte w artykule wnioski są wynikiem autorskiej analizy ponad 250 niebezpiecznych zdarzeń we współczesnym lotnictwie komunikacyjnym. Materiałami źródłowymi były protokoły z badania przyczyn analizowanych wypadków.

This article attempts to provide a synthesis of basic directions indispensable to accurately collecting evidence after an aviation accident. The proper collection procedure ensures the avoidance of the loss of evidence critical for an investigation carried out by law enforcement agencies and/or the criminal justice system, which includes the participation of aviation expert investigators. Proper and complete evidence is also used to define the cause of the accident in the proceedings conducted by Państwowa Komisja Badania Wypadków Lotniczych (State Committee for Aviation Incidents Investigation, The State Committee for Aviation Incidents Investigation, hereafter referred to as the PKBWL). The methodology of securing evidence refers to the evidence collected at the scene of an accident right after its occurrence, and also to the evidence collected at other sites. It also includes, within its scope, additional materials that are essential to furthering the investigation process, although their collection does not require any urgent action. Furthermore, the article explains the meaning of particular pieces of evidence and their possible relevance to the investigation process.
