À propos de cet audio

Three aviation accidents illustrate the delicate balance between mechanical failure and pilot response.In one case, a rare ice buildup in the fuel system causes dual engine failure, yet the crew’s quick thinking prevents total disaster. Another tragedy occurs when pilot fatigue and misinterpretation of a stall warning lead to a preventable crash, highlighting the human side of error. The third involves a faulty radio altimeter, which misleads automated systems into initiating a premature landing, demonstrating the risks of over-reliance on automation.Together, these incidents show that engineering improvements alone are not enough; pilots must maintain strong manual flying skills and the judgment to override complex system errors, ensuring that technology enhances rather than compromises safety.
