Human factor as a threat in air transportation of hazardous materials

While considering the issue of air transport safety, great attention should be paid to projects related to air transport of hazardous materials, which constitute an increasingly important role in the global air transport. The author of this article undertook an analysis of the chosen aspects of security aiming at the minimization of risks occurring during the transportation of hazardous materials. Nevertheless, the main subject of research is a human factor and its impact on the possibility of occurrence of flight events involving dangerous substances and objects. As a result of the analysis, the main causes of flight events caused by air transport participants were indicated and discussed.
