Vail, Gayle J. (1988): A Gender Profile: U.S. General Aviation Pilot-Error Accidents 1982-1985. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 32nd Annual Meeting 1988. pp. 862-866.

Women in aviation are having an impact on pilot safety records -- a beneficial one. Evidence has shown that they are the safer of the genders while flying as Pilot-In-Command in General Aviation Flying. Data was analyzed from the NTSB files for the year 1982-1985. The results found a positive gender factor for females in number, type, and cause of pilot-error related accidents.
