There are so many good concepts to borrow from in pilot training, it's almost ridiculous. I'm not even a pilot but have studied risk management, crew resource management, decision making, etc. Anecdata of course but I feel it made a pretty big difference in dealing with projects and problems.

Atul Gawande made a book out of the idea (well, sort of!), https://atulgawande.com/book/the-checklist-manifesto/ https://atulgawande.com/book/the-checklist-manifesto/.

I’ve been increasingly addicted to Mentour Pilot videos in the past month, and I couldn’t agree more with you. Modern (and by this I mean really 1990s+) pilot training, with its decision frameworks and CRM ideas, is a model for how most professionals ought to organize their work and deal with challenges. Of course it’s easy to see why aviation developed such rigorous systems, but we’d do well to steal as many of their ideas as we can. If anyone isn’t already really familiar with those two concepts especially, I bet it would be worth your time to look into them a bit.

  Mentour Pilot is quite good, especially their older videos, tho recently they are moving to stronger engagement farming since they sold to private equity (https://www.electrify.video/post/electrify-video-partners-expands-portfolio-with-mentour-pilot-and-mentour-now-investment https://www.electrify.video/post/electrify-video-partners-ex...)

    Good to know. I do hope Petter will continue to maintain the seriousness of the channel, and the mission to teach the lessons learned by air incidents.

  If you don't already, check out Admiral Cloudberg's write-ups. She started doing research for MentourPilot last year, but has a few years of previous articles that'll wiki-hole you real good.

  At the time of the FAA making up this framework, I would venture more than half of commercial pilots had some military aviation background. It is so close to Boyd's model, I would think that a research might find that it was highly inspired if not a direct descendant of Boyd's work. However, Body was real time combat, and I think the FAA is supposed to be beyond a cockpit crisis, and maybe another framework is Demings PDCA framework, which looks like you could roughly match the pieces.
