Beating<br />

Confirmation Bias<br />

You can beat confirmation bias by<br />

employing a little healthy skepticism<br />

when briefing yourself for an approach<br />

(or a visual night landing). Check what<br />

pattern <strong>of</strong> approach and runway lights<br />

you’ll see when you first have visual<br />

contact, from the Airport/Facility Directory,<br />

airnav.com or similar sources,<br />

and on the airport view <strong>of</strong> instrument<br />

approach charts (Figure 1). Compare<br />

the pattern to published examples<br />

(Figure 2), and finally the runway<br />

stripes you expect to see (Figure 3). On<br />

patterns and make these callouts as<br />
