Abstract
Although the influence of safety attitudes on pilot performance has been documented and research has been conducted on how training can increase safety attitudes, little research has been conducted to understand the relationship between experience and a pilot's safety attitudes. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a relationship between pilot experience and pilot attitudes toward safety issues. Pilot attitudes towards safety issues were measured using Hunter's Aviation Safety Attitudes Scale (ASAS). A survey was distributed that included both ASAS and demographic questions. The relationship between flight hours (pilot experience) and the ASAS score was examined.
