Abstract As an important issue for the sustainable development of a country, aviation security is important for either the development of aviation enterprises or the stability and orderliness of the whole society. Therefore, the main purpose of this study was to explore the roles of organizational trust, organizational identification, and organizational commitment in safety operation behavior (SOB) for one hundred forty-three airline pilots. Correlation analysis indicated that organizational trust, organizational identification, organizational commitment, and SOB were significantly correlated with each other. Bootstrap analysis showed that airline pilots' organizational identification and organizational commitment mediated the relationship between their organizational trust and SOB in aviation. Implications for research and instructions for how to improve airline pilots’ SOB in aviation are discussed.

    Highlights Organizational trust can significantly affect the safety operation behavior of civil aviation pilots. Organizational identification and organizational commitment mediate the relationship between organizational trust and safety operation behavior in airline pilots. The score of each pilot's safety operation behavior was rated by two flight experts independently. The current model is important to help pilots establish the behavior motivation of active safety.
