NTSB Safety Recommendation — Aviation

Recommendation text

TO THE FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION: Develop, and distribute to all pilots, multimedia guidance materials on professionalism in aircraft operations that contain standards of performance for professionalism; best practices for sterile cockpit adherence; techniques for assessing and correcting pilot deviations; examples and scenarios; and a detailed review of accidents involving breakdowns in sterile cockpit and other procedures, including this accident. Obtain the input of operators and air carrier and general aviation pilot groups in the development and distribution of these guidance materials. (Supersedes Safety Recommendation A-07-8)

In plain language (FlightFinder summary)

The Federal Aviation Administration is asked to create and send out multimedia training materials on professionalism for pilots, including standards, sterile cockpit best practices, methods for addressing deviations, and accident case studies. It must also gather input from operators and pilot groups when developing and distributing these materials. This replaces an earlier recommendation.

This plain-language summary is written by FlightFinder to explain the recommendation above. It is not the official wording — the verbatim NTSB text is quoted above.
