Is it Safe? The Safety Assessment of Aircraft Systems

Abstract

This final article introduces some examples of safety assessments which, for one reason or another, vary from the conventional patterns. Some are still being developed, for instance methods of assessing active controls, and problems associated with the use of digital computation. The article finishes with a glimpse of possible future trends.
