Abstract
In this paper, we discuss particular mechanical and human faults during flight, pilot error in aviation, awareness of situations and reducing error on pilot’s behalf. All aircraft mainly fly straight and level on a navigational course without usually, a pilot attention greatly prohibiting pilot's workloads. Most aircraft flying today really don’t have an autopilot system in it. New age autopilot systems relatively use computer software to control aircrafts. We explore the reasons for the reluctance of the pilots errors and training towards known flight procedure during a in flight situation. The computer deliberates the current aircraft position in the air, and then directs the Flight Control System to adhere to the aircraft maneuvers. Even though the auto control system handles and maneuvers dangerous situations, it can generally thrust an aircraft with less than normal fuel-consumption than a human pilot itself.
Initially holding systems regularly accumulate errors over a long period of time. “Are airline pilots forgetting how to fly”? Most Airliners discourage or are even against pilots activating the autopilot system in fear of accidents compilation.
Pilots are still in command of the flight course. Airline training courses sometimes focus on training pilots to adhere to automation, instead of dealing without it. It is essential that pilots are knowledgeable concerning aircraft systems and basic components
