abstract="INTRODUCTION: Changes in General Aviation (GA) accident rates, specifically in the go-around phase, are examined by comparing the number of accidents, the proportion of fatal accidents, and the proportion of certain causes of accidents over time. <br><br>METHODS: Two sets of accidents from 2000 to 2004 and from 2013 to 2017 were extracted from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) online database. <br><br>RESULTS: Although the total number of GA accidents per landing significantly decreased over time, the proportion of fatal accidents in the go-around phase increased. Fatalities most often occurred in instrument meteorological conditions. <br><br>CONCLUSION: Advances in technology and training show improvements in GA accident rates, but not for accidents in the go-around phase.   PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Scenario-based learning is recommended to include specific instruction concerning the timing of go-around procedures in unstable flights.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
