As air traffic continues to grow tremendous efforts are required to keep air transport save and sustainable. The aviation safety culture should therefore be regarded as a continues effort to enhance that very aviation safety. However, albeit very rarely, things might go wrong. If an aviation accident occurs, the consequences are mostly dramatic and the impact on society will be absolutely revolting and far-reaching.
It is society that immediately demands an investigations into cause and guilt.
This book will provide an insight into the question of legal principles, rules and protocols regarding the concurrence of civil aviation accident and incident investigations in the Netherlands, which is considered to be al less than perfect paradigm.
The authors call for independent and comprehensive technical aviation accident and incident investigations, not hampered by other concurrent inquiries, in a just culture environment, as this will eventually enable the global civil aviation industry to learn lessons for the future.
