Last August, was the first media organization to report that the crash could be linked to the way pilots treat each other in the cockpit.
Usually, when such issues happen, it is a matter of pilots not wishing to question a decision, which they feel to be dangerous, when made by the captain, or senior pilot.
But the Asiana crash resulted from a different kind of failure to communicate.
The US National Transportation Safety Board held a hearing on it in December.
Investigators said the pilot making the landing was being trained by a more experienced Triple-7 pilot, and was afraid to tell his training pilot that he wanted to cancel the landing and try again. This was because Korean culture would not have allowed him to speak up, even though cockpit alarms were sounding, warning that the plane was at too low a speed and not correctly positioned for landing.
Now, Asiana Airlines is changing the way it trains pilots. The company will urge more open discussion among pilots about flying decisions. Pilots will depend less on years working for the company, military service or age.
