Abstract

The project examines the rank structure in the crew of a WC-130 when completing missions by analyzing the communication between crew members. In order to examine the structure, we analyzed the leadership styles that improved work dynamics and those that did not in each member of the crew. Additionally, we considered the idea that trust overrides rank in a stressful environment. Overall, we looked at what sort of team hierarchy exists when the crew is presented with the dangerous situation of flying into a hurricane.
