According to U.S. NTSB, from 1989 to 1992, Situation Awareness (SA) was a major factor causing 80% of all aircraft accidents in scheduled airlines. Therefore, the prevention of accidents through effective training in SA became a pivot in aviation safety. Furthermore, during the past 10 years, since all helicopter accidents in Korea were caused by the factors related to SA, an appropriate countermeasure has been required. This study, which uses survey data, examines various factors related to SA that could affect helicopter pilots. Recognition of and countermeasures for the factors in emergency situations were analyzed. The results show that, while the factors associated with SA and vigilance have lower correlations with each other, the factors associated with recognition, diagnosis, and generation and implementation of solutions have higher correlations with each other. Thus, the results demonstrate the need for better SA through educational training.
