The purpose of this paper is to discuss the use of the case analysis method as an entire semester course in aviation. The author taught a sixteen week course entitled Case Analysis in Aviation at the University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO). This paper will provide a summary of teaching a course in which analyzing previously written cases was the primary teaching format. The discussion will include a description of the course, the pros and cons to conducting such a class, and a review of how the students evaluated the course. The author hopes to justify using case analysis as the primary methodology for an aviation course and provide guidance on how to develop such a course for other faculty members who may be interested in using this method.
