The Wrong Stuffthe title of this film is meant to remind the viewer that what is the '"right stuff" for a pilot in the single-seat, high performance fighter aircraft is the "'wrong stuff" when transferred onto the flight deck of the multi-crew commercial carrier.
This documentary focuses on the relationship between an aviator's personality and aircraft accidents, using the crash of Air Florida 90 to illustrate the impact of such a relationship on air safety. The role of the "domineering" captain and the "non-assertive" co-pilot is also examined ... along with a program (United Airline's CRM) designed to deal with personality and role conflicts in the ****pit.
Certain segments of this program can be used in a "stand-alone" fashion to illustrate critical CRM concepts. Some examples:
(1) The importance of teamwork: the NASA experiments on crew variations in teamwork are presented between minutes 9:08 and 12:50; a second example of teamwork, involving a three-man crew working together effectively to correct a "loss of all generators" problem, is highlighted during minutes 28:03-31:50.
(2) The impact of personal behavioral styles in the ****pit: These styles are examined in the context of the Air Florida crash (between minutes 17:34-28:00).
(3) The value of a pilot as a creative decision-maker (why he won't be replaced by a computer): Excellent example provided by pioneering aviation expert John Lauber.
