The accident trends show the pilots do mistakes which can be divided into several groups where every year the percentage distribution of the accidents reaches similar values. The most accidents happen during landing and sometimes it is connected with engine failure. Some accidents happen after a chain of bad decisions which were made by the pilot. This article describes two approaches intended for accident rate mitigation. The first is a software tool which evaluates pilot's performance during the flight with respect of the airplane type which was used for the flight. The second tool replays certain phase of a flight with requirement imposed on the pilot to recognize beginning of potentially dangerous situations.
