Update: 2024-08-01
Description
Dave Fielding is a Captain for British Airways and Chair of the International Peer Assist Aviation Coalition.
Dave highlights some pretty stark facts in this interview. For instance, what do you think is the second highest cause of fatality in western registered aircraft? It's pilot murder suicide.
In this episode we discuss how the crash of Germanwings Flight 9525 changed the nature of how pilot mental health is approached, the need for harmonized aviation mental health and medical regulations worldwide, and initiatives which Dave has led to make the sector safer and more supportive.
