An anonymous and voluntary questionnaire was completed by 461 (73.4%) Coast Guard aviators at 26 participating Air Stations. Most (92%) pilots felt that helicopters had more dangerous missions and were less safe than fixed wing aircraft (FXAC). Two thirds (204) of helicopter and 19.3% (29) of FXAC pilots stated a desire to change to a different aircraft category. Only 1 (3.6%) of the FXAC pilots but 81 (39.8%) of the helicopter pilots stated their wish for aircraft change was influenced by a desire to operate aircraft they perceived as safer. Pilots who desired change in aircraft category were more senior, more experienced, and felt they were currently engaging in dangerous flight operations. In conclusion this study found that: 1) Coast Guard pilots consider helicopters less safe than FXAC; 2) a substantial proportion of helicopter pilots would like to change to FXAC; 3) safety concerns can be a common factor in pilots' desires to change aircraft.
一份匿名自愿调查问卷由26个参与调查的航空站的461名（73.4%）海岸警卫队飞行员填写。大多数（92%）飞行员认为直升机执行的任务更危险，且不如固定翼飞机安全。三分之二（204名）直升机飞行员和19.3%（29名）固定翼飞机飞行员表示希望更换到不同的飞机类型。只有1名（3.6%）固定翼飞机飞行员，但81名（39.8%）直升机飞行员表示他们希望更换飞机是受到操作他们认为更安全的飞机的愿望影响。希望更换飞机类型的飞行员更资深、经验更丰富，并且觉得他们目前正在从事危险的飞行作业。总之，本研究发现：1）海岸警卫队飞行员认为直升机不如固定翼飞机安全；2）相当比例的直升机飞行员希望更换为固定翼飞机；3）安全担忧可能是飞行员希望更换飞机的一个共同因素。
