- Near-Miss Normalization
- A regional airline whose unstable-approach rate at one airport rises by an order of magnitude over five years without producing an injury — the incidents logged as "windy approaches" rather than "unstable approaches," the chief pilot reading the pattern as skilled crews — discovers in the sixth-year overrun that its margin to overrun had collapsed years earlier and the outcome record had only obscured it.
This sourceDocuments that unstable approaches are the dominant contributor to runway overruns and that the overwhelming majority of crews fail to convert an unstable approach into a go-around — the margin-consuming near-miss stream whose clean-landing record masks erosion until an overrun.
