 RESUME 
 
This work was done by a research about the five hazardous attitudes that pilots 
could take in aviation world. It presents the origin of the identification of the 
attitudes together with the reason why they were identified and how important is 
to the pilots to know it. Also presents all the five hazardous attitudes and one 
situation with an example of each behavior.

INTRODUCTION 
 
The notorious five: these attitudes were formulated by Embry Riddle 
Aeronautical University in response to a commission by FAA (Federal Aviation 
Authority) to develop and validate training programs to address the problem of poor 
pilot decision making. According to they all the pilots must be fully aware of these 
attitudes and be able to avoid then as they have strong negative impact on decision 
making and judgment at the flight deck.

THE FIVE HAZARDOUS ATTITUDES 
 
Are they, impulsivity, when the pilot acts very fast without considering the 
consequences, without thinking before. Resignation, when the pilot accept everything 
with excessive passivity, doesn't take any decision, just let the things be whatever 
they be. Macho, the attitude which is the pilot choose to do some actions excessively 
dangerous or risky, aiming to other people's admiration. The one who try to impress 
unnecessarily. Invulnerability, manifests in the person that always feel or think 
nothing will happen to him or her. And the anti-authority, a person acting by this 
attitude will disregard the rules and act disrespecting them. Next goes a case 
followed by a example of each attitude: 
“Landing at an unfamiliar airport for fuel, you tell the lineman to ‘fill it up’ and run 
inside the terminal to use the rest room. Returning, you pay the bill and take off 
without checking the aircraft, the fuel caps, or the fuel 
a. You feel that it’s a silly requirement to preflight an aircraft which you’ve just 
flown. – Anti-authority. 
b. You just want to get under way, quickly. – Impulsivity. 
c. You know that you have skipped preflights before and nothing bad ever 
happened. - Invulnerability. 
d. You have every confidence that a pilot with your skill level could handle, in 
flight, anything that might have been overlooked on the ground. – Macho. 
e. You feel that since you paid top dollar for the fuel, it’s the responsibility of the 
lineman to ensure the airplane was refueled properly. – Resignation.” 
(KRAUSE, 2003, p. 20). 
After seeing the five hazardous attitudes it is possible to see how to 
neutralize them, the first step is to positively identify the attitude. After a pilot 
recognizes a thought as hazardous and identifies it, he should then state the correct 
antidote that there is for each attitude: 
HAZARDOUS ATTITUDE ANTIDOTE 
Anti-Authority: Don’t tell me. Follow the rules. They are usually right. 
Impulsivity: Do something quickly. Not so fast. Think first. 
Invulnerability: It won’t happen to me. It could happen to me. 
Macho: I can do it. Taking chances is foolish. 
Resignation: What’s the use? I’m not helpless. I can make a difference.

CONCLUSION 
 
After studying the five hazardous attitudes, is possible to agree with the 
Embry Riddle Aeronautical University affirmation that all pilots must to know this 
content, since they are common to happen and its occurrence might be dangerous 
and once the knowledge of these studied attitudes seems to be very useful in order 
to avoid its happening.
