about the best kind of person to
produce it. We certainly have more
intelligence than the average car
driver. Or do we? Passing exams
doesn't mean you're capable of doing
a decent job or handling a crisis.
There are stupid solicitors,
professors, you name it. I have
flown with 17,000-hour pilots who I
wouldn't trust with a pram, and
1,000-hour types with whom I
would trust anything.
I think it's fair to say that the public
typically think of pilots (when they
think of them at all) as outgoing
types, often in the bar and having a
lark, an image that has come about
from all those World War II movies.
To be fair, if you were cold, hungry,
tired, frightened and inexperienced,
you would probably behave that
way, too, but life today is quite
different. I think a pilot should be a
synthesis of the following headings:
· Meticulous - being prepared to do
the same thing, the same way,
every time, and not get bored,
because that's the way you miss
things.
· Forward Thinking - in just the
same way that the advanced
driver is ready to deal with a
corner before going into it, the
advanced pilot knows that the
load underneath will carry on if
the helicopter slows down, and
positions the controls as best he
can. Unfortunately, this ability
only comes with experience, but
it's never too late to start.
· Responsible - the "responsible
position" that you hold as a
commander is one in which you
act with minimum direction but
are personally responsible for
the outcome of your activities.
In other words, you are
responsible for the machine
without being directed by any
other person in it.
· Trustworthy - people must be
able to trust you – all of aviation
runs on it. You trust the
previous pilot not to have
overstressed the machine, or to
really have done 4.3 hours and
not 6. Signatures count for a lot,
and, by extension, your word.
What is the common thread that unites
all competent people?
· Intelligence
· Personality. This can be defined
as "The sum total of the
physical, mental, emotional and
social characteristics of an
individual". Generally, to be
accident prone, you are either
under- or overconfident. With
the former, situations will tend
not to be handled properly, and
with the latter, situations not
appreciated properly. You might
also be aggressive, independent,
a risk taker, anxious,

impersonal, competitive,
invulnerable and have a low
stress tolerance, which, when
you think about it, are all based
on attention-seeking and fear.
However, the real area where
personality comes to the fore is
during interactions with other
people; behaviour tends to
breed behaviour. Crews are
frightened to deal with the
Captain, and Captains won't
deal with crews.
· Leadership vs teamwork.
Leadership has been defined as
facilitating the movement of a
team toward the
accomplishment of a task, in
this case, the crew and the safe
arrival of their passengers. This
is a better definition than
“Getting somebody to do what
you want them to do” which
implies a certain amount of
manipulation, something more
in the realm of management as a
scientific process. A Leader, as
opposed to a Manager, is a
more positive force,
inspirational, nurturing and
many other words you could
probably think of yourself.
· Personal qualities to passengers
and colleagues.
On top of personality traits, which you
are born with, the accident-prone
person also has undesirable attitudes,
which are acquired. These can
include:
· Impulsivity. Doing things without
forethought – such people don’t
stop to think about what they’re
doing. Not so fast! Apply your
training! The opposite is
indecisive.
· Antiauthority. These people don’t
like being told what to do. They
may either not respect the
source of the authority, or are
just plain ornery (with a deep
source of bottled-up anger).
Very often there's nothing
wrong with this - if more people
had questioned authority, we
wouldn't have had half the wars,
or we wouldn't get passengers
pressurising pilots to do what
they shouldn't. However,
