NTSB Faults Crew 'Mismanagement' in Akron Hawker Crash
NTSB recommended FAA require flight data monitoring programs and safety management systems for all Part 135 operators.


The NTSB, finding significant deficiencies with the crew’s management of the approach that ended in a Hawker 700A crash on November 10 last year, is calling on the FAA to mandate flight data monitoring programs for Part 135 operators. The Board is also asking for a requirement to install flight data recorders that can support those programs, safety management systems (SMSs), improved approach training and better processes to identify Part 135 operators that do not comply with standard operating procedures.
