Accredited Accident Investigator Scheme
IFALPA has developed the "Accredited Accident Investigator (AAI) Scheme", which involves the accreditation of pilot investigators who will provide the most professional contribution to any state investigation. These accredited representatives understand pilot culture, human factors and operations and as such are a valuable asset to any investigation. They are also valuable in determining recommendations that will be effective in preventing recurrences and in promoting aviation safety. All candidates go through an approved international accident investigation course and their training, qualifications and experience is carefully reviewed by IFALPA.

““O human creature, ... you are the investigator without knowledge, the magistrate without jurisdiction, and all in all, the fool of the farce.””
