Résumé
Rapidly increasing air traffic around the globe, soaring
numbers of passengers, security concerns on the ground and
in the air, changes in the Air Traffic System, new
maintenance and flight technologies, recent accidents, and
intensified media focus-all point up the need for greater
attention to commercial aviation safety in the third
millennium. Built upon the 5-M model-Man, Machine, Medium,
Mission, and Management-this text by aviation author
