Abstract:

In order to systematically review the research and development status of safety resilience in the field of civil aviation at home and abroad, and deepen the research on safety resilience in the field of civil aviation, firstly, the concept of aviation safety resilience was explored by reviewing policy documents, standards and research literature related to air transport systems in recent years. Then the research and application of safety resilience in civil aviation airport, air traffic control, flight operation and other fields were discussed. Finally, the existing problems were analyzed and corresponding suggestions and prospects are put forward. The results show that the safety management of civil aviation has formed a relatively perfect system, and the safety resilience covers all stages of safety management before, during and after, but it still cannot meet the needs of perfect connection and integration with the existing safety management system. Current studies focus more on the resilience of airports and route networks. In terms flight operation, more measures are taken to improve safety resilience based on the actual flight operation. The basic research on aviation resilience assessment is relatively lacking, and the research on aviation personnel resilience at operational level is far from enough. In the future, relevant research should be carried out around the individual operation resilience, enrich the basic research of resilience assessment, further deepen the research and form a relatively stable discipline system, pay attention to the connection between safety resilience and safety management system, and assess individual operation resilience from the perspective of safety.

Key words: civil aviation, safety resilience, safety management, air transport, flight operations
