Abstract

We applied a systems theoretical hazard analysis to the accident of JL350 to reanalyze this unique case of pilot homicide-suicide from a contemporary perspective. It is the only known case in which people had survived the crash. Having collected all information on the accident, we present a comprehensive analysis of the homicide-suicide and its countermeasures established afterwards. This sheds light on how the Japanese system of commercial aviation has responded. An aeromedical research center provides the Japanese aviation society with the latest knowledge on medicine, including mental health, to keep the stakeholders informed which enables them to react to changing requirements. In Europe, similar countermeasures were recommended decades later to address the mental health issues of pilots.
