"UAP events, Flight Safety and Event Reporting" - Shawn Pruchnicki, AIAA UAP
Registration
Details
Zoom-style speaker event with Shawn Pruchnicki, Chair of the Human Factors Team of AIAA UAP.
Description: The talk will discuss the current state of affairs with UAPs and flight safety hazards that are being seen in both the military and commercial aviation communities. The discussion will then follow on with the stigma associated with reporting these events in both aviation domains and the need for a reporting system that can capture meaningful data of these events that will foster the ability for scientific analysis.
Shawn Pruchnicki (Ph.D, FRA,eS, RPh, ATP, CFII, MEI) is currently a professor at The Ohio State University in the College of Engineering where he has a dual appointment in both Aviation and Integrated Systems Engineering. Between the two divisions, he teaches or has taught Aviation Safety, Human Factors, Accident Investigation, Complex Aircraft Operation, Cognitive Engineering and Behind Human Error.
Since 1990, he has currently presented and published academically in the fields of toxicology, aviation, and accident investigation. He has made over 26 international and 72 national presentations. He has published in over 28 peer reviewed journals and conference proceedings. He has also co-authored 12 NASA & FAA technical reports. And finally, he co-authored one book chapter on resilience engineering and 6 professional magazine articles.
He is an internationally recognized expert in accident causation, human error, and the design and use of automated systems. His current interest and focus include the role that safety culture, human performance, and human error play in understanding accident causation. He is especially interested in how these concepts when viewed through the lens of complexity theory can affect our construction of causation and understanding of human error. Shawn was recently awarded Fellow status in the Royal Aeronautical Society, is a member of the International Society of Air Safety Investigators (ISASI), the Association for Aviation Psychology (APA) and the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society (HFES).

——————————————————————————————
It appears that UFOs are real? Congressional hearings [a,b,c] about military UFO encounters and investigations, landmark legislation [d,e] advocating for transparency and disclosure, and more have quietly been gripping Washington in the last few years.
We at the Yale Student UFO Society are on the case to bring the developments to campus! See resources we’ve compiled about the Congressional developments, modern military history of UFOs, quotes by presidents, and more resources and media to guide those interested about this otherworldly and noisy topic. See also our flyers (attached) we’ve been distributing across campus.
