HindSight Safety Magazine receives prestigious award
EUROCONTROL's aviation safety magazine for air traffic control HindSight received an award on 3 November 2009 for the best aviation safety publication the Cecil Brownlow Publication Award.
This award was first presented in 1968 as the Flight Safety Foundation (FSF) Publication Award and was renamed in 1988 in memory of Cecil A. Brownlow, an aviation journalist and a former FSF editor.
It recognises significant contributions to aviation safety awareness. Recipients may be individuals, publications or organisations for consistent achievement or for outstanding articles, books or works in electronic media which have been published or broadcast over a 12-month period.
HindSight is a magazine produced by the Safety Improvement Sub-Group (SISG) of EUROCONTROL. It is issued by the Agency twice a year. Its main function is to help operational air traffic controllers and pilots share in the experiences of others who have been involved in ATM-related safety occurrences.
In this way, they have an opportunity to:
broaden their experience of the problems that may be encountered;
consider the available solutions;
therefore, be better prepared should they meet similar occurrences themselves.
Around 5 000 copies of each issue are circulated globally to air traffic controllers, aircraft operators, airlines, user associations, heads of ACCs, and working groups, in addition to the electronic copy of Hindsight Magazine available on the Eurocontrol site.
