by Elmar Lutter (Author)
Flying is one of the safest modes of transportation, but should we and can we make it even safer? Elmar Lutter, President & CEO at Lufthansa Technik Philippines, believes unequivocally that we should. But how, in a field mired with technical and design complexities, reliance on human judgement, impossible timing constraints, and how-to-manuals that go on for miles, do we?
In Error Traps: How High-Performing Teams Learn to Avoid Mistakes in Aircraft Maintenance, Lutter challenges us to focus on our sphere of influence to avoid mishaps. In doing so, we can practice certain behaviors and attitudes that can: - Intercept chains of events that have the potential to cause damage. - Avoid predictable errors to reduce the exposure to becoming collateral damage in mishaps initiated outside of our sphere of control. Through a journey of compelling aviation experiences, Lutter offers four tools that every individual in aircraft MRO can and should employ to ensure they have done their very best to keep their team on the ground and the pilots and passengers in the air as safe as possible. Using real-world examples to connect the dots between 1. Competence: Master the basics 2. Awareness: Be in the moment, know what is coming 3. Compliance: Respect the defenses: read and follow the guidance, and 4. Teamwork: Look after one another, Lutter shares important insights and life lessons drawn from more than twenty years of collective knowledge and experience in an often unforgiving field.Back Jacket
Flying Is One Of The Safest Modes Of Transportation, But Can We Take That For Granted?
In Error Traps: How High-Performing Teams Learn to Avoid Mistakes in Aircraft Maintenance, Elmar Lutter guides us with a steady hand through the complex realities of aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO). Through a journey of compelling aviation experiences, Lutter offers four tools that every individual in aircraft MRO can and should employ to ensure they have done their very best to keep their team on the ground and the pilots and passengers in the air as safe as possible.
The reality is that even a small maintenance error that goes undetected can bring down a plane. We live and work in an industry in which a mindset of "good enough" cannot be justified. Aiming for precision in all manual tasks provides you the skillset and mindset to avoid error traps.
Connecting the dots between competence, awareness, compliance, and teamwork with real-world examples, Lutter shares important insights and life lessons drawn from decades of collective knowledge and experience in an often unforgiving field. And he makes the point that the lessons do not only apply to aviation.
