The Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences organised in Amsterdam (31 October - 2 November 2018) the 6th edition of the European STAMP Workshop and Conference ( ESWC ). The principal aim of the event was to provide a platform for the latest developments and applications of the Systems -Theoretic Accident Model and Processes (STAMP) and associated techniques, in particular, the hazard/risk analysis method STPA and the accident/ incident analysis method CAST. Under this frame, the ESWC promoted the interaction between academia, industry and governmental and other representatives in Europe.

The present study systematically assessed the factor structure, internal consistency, and construct validity of the Aviation Safety Locus of Control scale (ASLOC) on 476 European pilots (4.6% female). Independent confirmatory factor analyses showed a strong correlation between the latent factors of Internal and External LOC, justifying proceeding with a one-factor solution (assessing internal LOC after reverse-scoring items). This model achieved adequate fit with excellent internal consistency, after refining with structural equation modeling. Furthermore, flight hours significantly predicted Internal LOC after controlling for age, suggesting that pilots’ work experience can enhance internal attributions of control. This has implications for safety-related behaviors and protection against accidents.

Analysis of recent airliner accidents and incidents identified a class of events in which structurally, mechanically, and electronically sound aircraft decelerated through the minimum safe operating speed for the phase of flight to the stick-shaker activation speed. Despite the differences in the sequences of events, a subset of the incidents and accidents had one thing in common – the automation was no longer actively controlling to the airspeed target. This article describes the accident scenarios and design of a modification to the airspeed tape on the primary flight display to explicitly annunciate the absence of active speed control. An experiment to evaluate the efficacy of the enhanced airspeed tape showed faster pilot response time but no differences in correct pilot response.

This study investigates how pilots perceive the way in which their work and shift patterns may impact upon their personal relationships. It also examines the way in which pilots cope with frequently having to form and then put on hold relationships both at home and at work. Three hundred pilots were surveyed by questionnaire to examine the impact of working in the airline industry on personal relationships. Participants were recruited over a 4-year period between 2012 and 2016 on a university’s Master’s program in Air Transport Management. The qualitative data were analysed using thematic analysis (TA). The study found that that partner support was key in managing the demands of shift work and that having an understanding partner was the key to the relationship working. This study is representative of a single sample of mostly male pilots flying for more than 2 years. Future research may seek to use a more diverse sample.

Job perceptions and their relations with psychological and physical health were explored in a small group of military air traffic controllers (ATCOs) working in a test flight center. The participants rated dimensions of job requirements (psychological demands, overcommitment, work–family interferences), job resources (control, professional, and personal social support), and health indicators. The results show that the ATCOs in the study perceived their job as an active and demanding job but not in the same stressful way as civil ATCOs do. Some job requirement dimensions were positively associated with a number of health indicators. Overall and on-shift job resources were partially correlated, unlike overall and on-shift job requirements. Results favor an integrative approach of job perceptions.

The paper examines the workload perceived by air traffic control officers (ATCOs) and pilots during continuous descent operations (CDOs), applying closed- and open-path procedures. CDOs reduce fuel consumption and noise emissions. Therefore, they are supported by airports as well as airlines. However, their use often depends on pilots asking for CDOs and controllers giving approval and directions. An adapted NASA Total Load Index (TLX) was used to measure the workload perception of ATCOs and pilots when applying CDOs at selected European airports. The main finding is that ATCOs’ workload increased when giving both closed- and open-path CDOs, which may have a negative impact on their willingness to apply CDOs. The main problem reported by pilots was insufficient distance-to-go information provided by ATCOs. The workload change is important when considering the use of CDOs.
