BowTie Methodology for the Risk Management of the Spin Maneuver During Flight Training in Brazil

Abstract

This paper aims to present the BowTie methodology as a practical tool for the Risk Management of the spin maneuver during flight instruction, identifying hazards, controls and consequences related to the loss of control in-flight (LOC-I). Exploratory research was carried out regarding its objectives, through a literature review. Initially, a comparison is made between the Brazilian and international training programs, then the particularities of this training in Brazil was analyzed. Finally, a step-by-step construction of a BowTie developed is presented to reduce LOC-I occurrences during spin training.
