8. From Negative to Positive Safety
Negative outcomes are caused by failures and malfunctions.
All outcomes (positive
and negative) are due to performance variability. - +
Safety = Reduced
number of adverse
events.
Safety = Ability to
respond when
something fails.
Safety = Ability to
succeed under
varying conditions.
Eliminate failures
and malfunctions as far as possible.
Improve ability to
respond to adverse
events.
Improve resilience. 8 8

9. “What additional support do the airlines need compared to what is currently done with respect to airspace design and airspace utilisation? “How do airlines see the cooperation between NM and CFSPs in supporting the airlines efforts to plan better routes?” 9 9
