G
Air Carrier Questionnaire
The following excerpt from the NAOMS Reference Report (Battelle, 2007) introduces the air carrier questionnaire, which is reprinted here.
Interviewing of the air carrier (AC) pilots began in March 2001. The initial interview sample was split between pilots who were randomly selected for one interview and pilots who were asked to complete the interview once every three months. This appendix includes a copy of the AC questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of four sections that corresponded with general topics covered in the general aviation (GA) questionnaire: Section A addressed pilot qualifications and experience; Section B addressed safety events; Section C addressed a specific focus topic;1 and Section D offered pilots an opportunity to provide feedback on the interview process and the questionnaire. This appendix contains a copy of the air carrier questionnaire.
