Training for Resilient Safety

About this book

This book reveals to readers the secrets and mindsets of air show performances. Serving as a sequel to its predecessor, Air Show Performers: Safety, Risk Management, and Psychological Factors (9781032556147), it builds upon the insights of the first volume and offers an exploration of what distinguishes exceptional performances amidst the high-stakes environment of air shows.

From looking at the pathways to excellence to the hidden intricacies of resilient safety strategies, this book reveals the key approaches to safety and good practice for air show performers. This book combines academic research with real-world experiences from professionals in the field. It dissects the methodologies and practices essential for shaping elite air show performers and takes a critical look at training regimes. Technical skill, mental resilience and continuous improvement in performance are crucial for success in this field and this book explores resilient safety strategies to ensure that pilot and spectator protection remains paramount in every aspect of an air show performance. The reader will not just gain an insight into a pilot's training schedule but also perspectives into mindfulness and the psychological state of those who take part.

Excellence in Air Show Performers: Training for Resilient Safety is a must-read for professionals in health and safety, aviation and events management seeking to enhance their practices to academics researching the complexities of high-risk environments.
