Controlled Flight into Terrain Survey

CFIT (Controlled Flight Into Terrain) continues to be prevalent within Navy and Marine Corps Aviation. The following survey is intended to gain fleet feedback on current CFIT avoidance measures. Total time to complete this survey is less than 5 minutes. Space is provided at the end of the survey for additional comments and suggestions for CFIT avoidance. Thank you for your response.

 

1.  Controlled Flight Into Terrain (CFIT) is one of the most significant and common causal factors in Navy and Marine Corps aviation mishaps today.

Strongly Agree   Agree   Neutral    Disagree    Strongly Disagree

2.  More comprehensive and structured CFIT avoidance training will reduce the number of Naval Aviation mishaps.

Strongly Agree   Agree   Neutral    Disagree    Strongly Disagree

3.  My airframe NATOPS, Standardization, and other publications to include ORM worksheets require additional CFIT avoidance subject matter.

Strongly Agree   Agree   Neutral    Disagree    Strongly Disagree

4.  My airframe T&R is in need of CFIT avoidance codes (simulator, aircraft, and/or ground instruction).

Strongly Agree   Agree   Neutral    Disagree    Strongly Disagree

5.  CFIT is most likely to occur during periods of reduced visibility (degraded weather, night flight/NVD flight).

Strongly Agree   Agree   Neutral    Disagree    Strongly Disagree

6.  CFIT is most likely to occur during periods of high workload (combat ops, TERF, etc.)

Strongly Agree   Agree   Neutral    Disagree    Strongly Disagree

7.  Most CFIT mishaps are the result in deficiencies in CFIT avoidance training.

Strongly Agree   Agree   Neutral    Disagree    Strongly Disagree

8.  Most CFIT mishaps occur due to aircrew inexperience.

Strongly Agree   Agree   Neutral    Disagree    Strongly Disagree
