Disciplines of Organization

Discipline in an airlines organization is essential to the providing of safe, economical air transportation. Such discipline is reflected in leadership, sound organization, firm company policies, professional ability and standards, and a logical and efficient working group.

American Airlines is implementing three basic programs in the flight performance area in an effort to reduce risks: centralized flight training, line flying checks in the hands of Flight Standards superintendents, and routine surveillance of operations by use of flight performance recorders and accompanying computer programs.
