The accident would have been avoided if the flight crew labored together, followed procedures and abandoned the unsuccessful landing. System Safety Management:

In order to avoid incidents in the global aviation industry, it's important for airlines to implement effective and efficient maintenance and safety practices other than the improper practices. These measures will help in lessening incidents that result from improper aircraft maintenance practices and human factors. For maintenance personnel in most of the developed aviation systems, time pressures are usually a factor in their work. However, it's still important for these personnel to attain high reliability and efficiency in their work and thus reducing the number of aircraft incidents. Various organizational procedures and practices for aircraft maintenance and safety have been established such as inspections and logbook recordings.

Nonetheless, regardless of these maintenance procedures and practices, there are other incidents that occur because of human errors. While human errors are expected in places where humans are involved, it's important to adopt practices that lessen the occurrence of these errors. As these errors are reduced, aircraft incidents resulting from this human factor will also be reduced. In addition to the organizational procedures for aircraft maintenance, there are various important factors for a better, safer, efficient and effective system maintenance system. To have this kind of aircraft maintenance system, airlines should ensure that there is:

Effective Team Coordination:

To achieve a better, safer, effective and efficient maintenance system, effective team coordination is necessary since it enhances productivity and satisfaction. Safety and efficiency is improved by teamwork since it helps in the recognition and correction of individual errors. Effective team coordination also fosters active interaction of individuals during a task process rendering the safety procedures effective (Suzuki, von Thaden & Geibel, 2008). According to the Federal Aviation Administration, there are several factors that are necessary for effective teamwork such as openness, clear purpose, participation, shared leadership and listening.

Effective team coordination helps in achieving better, safer, efficient and effective aircraft maintenance practices since potential factors resulting in maintenance coordination problems are dealt with. The established procedures for aircraft maintenance can only be efficient and safer if effective teamwork coordination is in place. In fact, it's been discovered that problems in aircraft maintenance events that eventually influence safety are sometimes brought by lack of effective teamwork coordination.

Communication Failure:

While this factor is closely associated with effective teamwork coordination, communication failure also has an impact on aircraft maintenance practices. This is because communication...

reception, message and system failures. While message failures are cases where important information is not sent even in an existing communication channel, reception failures are incidents where information is interpreted wrongly. On the other hand, system failures are case where necessary communication channels are nonexistent and are mainly as a result of systematic design failures. To have an efficient, effective, better and safer maintenance systems, communication failure should be dealt with.
Airlines with Best Records:

While there is no airline with a perfect safety record, there are several airlines that are considered among the best because of their safety procedures. These airlines which are considered to be among the safest airlines across the globe include Qantas, Emirates, Southwest, Delta, Northwest, Continental, Qatar, Singapore and Ryanair airlines. While come of these airlines have had several aircraft incidents, Qantas airlines has never experienced a fatal airplane crash ("Washington," 2010). However, EL Al, and Israeli carrier is considered as the airline with an excellent safety record because it has never experienced passenger aircraft crashes for over fifty years. Some of its safety measures include passenger and luggage scrutiny, in-air security procedures and infrared countermeasures against missiles.

Conclusion:

Aircraft maintenance is such an important aspect in the global aviation industry especially in lessening aircraft incidents. It's important for airlines to adhere to proper maintenance procedures and maintain a better, safer, efficient and effective system. Reducing human factors that result in aircraft incidents should also be a major focus of maintenance.
