Abstract

Aviation safety is a critical aspect of the air transportation industry, involving various complex components ranging from human factors and technology to organizational management. This study aims to identify the contributing factors to accidents and incidents in aviation and to formulate effective prevention strategies. The research methods include literature review, case studies, and analysis of causal factors from various sources. The findings indicate that the main causes of accidents and incidents fall into four major categories: (1) human factors, such as human error due to negligence, fatigue, or lack of skills; (2) technical factors, including engine failures and aircraft system malfunctions; (3) environmental factors, such as extreme weather and poor runway conditions; and (4) managerial and organizational factors, including weak coordination and ineffective risk monitoring systems. The interaction among these factors highlights the need for a holistic approach to aviation safety. Recommended preventive measures include regular personnel training, strict technical maintenance, environmental risk mitigation, and comprehensive implementation of a Safety Management System (SMS). With integrated prevention strategies, aviation safety can be significantly improved, thereby maintaining public trust in the aviation industry.
