Human error is one of the primary causal factors in aviation accidents. This variable is present across all sectors involved in flight operations, encompassing not only flight crew and operational personnel but also ground staff, maintenance crews, administrative personnel, and anyone else who might be engaged in flight activities.

Humans make errors continuously, both in personal and professional realms. While it is impossible to eradicate errors entirely, as making mistakes is inherent to human nature, it is feasible to implement corrective actions to mitigate their effects and reduce the error margin that could potentially lead to an accident.

In this work, we will meticulously examine numerous aviation accidents where human error has been the triggering factor leading to catastrophe. A detailed analysis of each accident will be conducted based on official reports from various aviation accident investigation authorities.
