Episode 79 TWA Flight 514 crashed into Mount Weather in Virginia in 1974 and changed aviation safety forever. This accident led to the creation of the Aviation Safety Reporting System (ASRS). The TWA 727 crash was due in part to ambiguous information provided to the crew. As a result of the accident, the FAA and NASA created ASRS. The ASRS lets aviation system users contribute lessons and safety issues. Information is used to resolve aviation system issues. Keys to the success of the program include its voluntary nature, focus on safety, and immunity from sanctions for self-reported unintentional violations. John, Greg and Todd also provide updates on the Trans Air crash in Hawaii and recent general aviation accidents. Flight Safety Detectives is sponsored by PAMA and Avemco Insurance.
