Taxiing Collisions

1946

Synopsis

Part of the “Flight Safety” series of animated shorts commissioned by the U.S. Air Force at the end of World War II. This one urges pilots to be aware of their speed and direction during taxiing, as forward visibility from most cockpits is limited. The cartoon suggests six common mistakes made by pilots that cause taxiing accidents, all of them the result of negligence and carelessness.
