Major factors which contribute to failures to meet schedules in all forms of transport are noted as being mechanical or system unreliability, human fallibility, (illness, organization and/or judgment errors), and hostile environmental conditions (usually bad weather); discussion considers developments currently in progress to make air transport less subject to operational unreliability due to hostile environmental conditions and, in particular, problems associated with landing aircraft safely in bad weather.
