Abstract

The aviation industry emphasizes safety through systematic investigation of incidents to prevent future accidents. Organizations such as the International Civil Aviation Organization and the National Transportation Safety Board play central roles in identifying accident causes and shaping safety improvements. This study examines common causes of aviation accidents and strategies for their reduction, utilizing accident data, professional literature, and aviation regulations. In addition to analyzing impacts, it provides a historical overview and literature review of safety research. Methods include reviewing scientific publications and collecting data from multiple sources, while analysis involves tabulating information and applying theoretical frameworks. The report outlines accident trends, categorizes their effects, and proposes mitigation strategies to enhance next‑generation transportation safety, highlighting the importance of continuous improvement in global aviation safety practices.
