Abstract:The purpose of the study is to determine if there is a medical vs. human factors/experience risk tradeoff for pilots operating under BasicMed. The hypothesis would be that, while the rate of mishaps caused by medical factors is greater for older pilots, the rate of mishaps caused by human factors is lower for these pilots. METHODS. The analysis followed three steps: (1) examine the ratio of medically caused mishap rates to human factors/experience caused mishap rates for BasicMed pilots by age decade, (2) examine the similar ratio of medically caused mishap rates to human factors/experience caused mishap rates for 3rd class medical certificate pilots by age decade, and (3) compare the mishap rate ratios determined in steps 1 and 2 among age decade.
