Description The Operator's Guide to Human Factors in Aviation (OGHFA) is a project of the Flight Safety Foundation (FSF) European Advisory Committee. OGHFA is an extensive compendium of human factors information focused on further advancing commercial aviation safety. The articles are supported by a series of situational examples, checklists and visual presentations (see below). By way of an introduction, here is an article and a presentation to give you a broad overview of what we mean by Operator's Guide to Human Factors: An Introduction to the Purpose and Use of the Operator's Guide to Human Factors in Aviation A short video presentation on OGHFA
