Question for Captians
*Edit Sorry for the misspelling of Captain. in the title*
Hey there, my name is Joey, I am currently a student at University of Alaska Anchorage, I ‘m studying Professional Piloting here. For my Aviation Safety class we were instructed to interview someone in the aviation industry. I thought the easiest way would be to touch base on a web forum and see if I could get a answer from you guys.
I would greatly appreciate if you guys could answer some of those questions for me.
Thanks,
Joey

1. What do you think would be some of the best ways to improve
aviation safety?
2. If these new safety measures were implemented, would it
significantly impact aviation safety?

A goog place to look for casuse of accidents is the National Transportation Safety Board Website. ntsb.gov.
I think you will find that the biggest factor is Pilot Error. It is usually caused by another factor in the chain of events that could have been stopped by the pilot.
Hope this helps.

to help answer #13.
Honesty and Intergrety must be present to perform well as a pilot. We must have attention to detail and we must follow all the rules and be "By The Book".
Many interviews are based a lot on these characters. Companies can teach someone to fly their airplane but can not teach these skills.
If you want to get my specifics on my flying background PM me. I like to remain anonymous here.
