![Page 24: Flight Safety Foundation CFIT/ALAR ACTION GROUP ... - ASASI · Most CFIT accidents occur within 15 NM of the runway threshold. 60 % of the approaches were non precision or not stabilized](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021911/5c253fbc09d3f289468bc1c9/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
CONCLUSIONS
• The CFIT implementation shortcomingshad to be recognised and overcome
• The formation of CAAG was essential
• New Terms of Reference and Objectives forthe CAAG were necessary
• Even greater efforts are needed to reduceCFIT & Approach and Landing accidents
![Page 25: Flight Safety Foundation CFIT/ALAR ACTION GROUP ... - ASASI · Most CFIT accidents occur within 15 NM of the runway threshold. 60 % of the approaches were non precision or not stabilized](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021911/5c253fbc09d3f289468bc1c9/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
RECOMMENDATIONS
• Support these proposals
• Help us identify and appoint the regionalchampions
• Give the CAAG the long term commitmentnecessary to achieve its goal
• Share the pride of achievement with ourcollective efforts

CFIT RisksFlight crew errors
Communications
Navigation
Procedure
Weather
Day / Night
Automatics
Used DME instead of cross - bearing for desired intersection.
The pilot not flying (PNF), did not challenge the Captains error.
- Did not read back frequency change.- Misinformed tower of aircraft position.- Did not ensure adequate terrain clearance
- Selecting the wrong frequency- Selecting the wrong radial or heading- Misreading charts.
- Not completing checklists or briefs- Not following prescribed checklist- Failing to consult charts
87 % of CFIT accidents were in IMC.
50% of CFIT accidents were at night.
FMS / Autoflight problems are contributing factors

CFIT Risks
Most CFIT accidents occur within 15 NM of the runway threshold.
60 % of the approaches were non precision or not stabilized after FAF
Descended below safe altitude IMC
Incorrect setting or reading of the barometric altimeter
Did not request updated weather information.
Used DME than cross - bearing for desired intersection.
Commenced descent to MDA before reaching FAF
Did not call out 1,000 feet above field level.
Descended below DH in IMC
No radio altitude call-outs
Rushed approach
Did not go around
Did not follow SOP
The pilot not flying did not challenge a descent below DH.
