Because NMAC's are reported by pilots or other crew members, some of the information may represent the reporter's subjective interpretation of what occurred, and because the motivation to report differs among pilots and crews, the number of events reported probably does not represent the total universe of NMAC events. The NTSB uses the information it gathers during accident investigations and the determination of probable cause to make safety recommendations to all elements of the transportation industry. While the recipient of a recommendation does not have to implement the proposed action, it does have to respond formally to the recommendation and specify what action is or is not being taken and why. This database contains the NTSB Safety Recommendations to the FAA with FAA Responses. Enables you to retrieve data from all databases at this site.
