An engineer is working on a wing and kicks a spanner off into an engine cowl and breaks a sensor. This is
- rule based errors.
- skill based error.
- a cognitive error.
Explanation from PART66Online
Kicking a spanner into the cowl is an unintended failure during a routine, automatic physical action, which falls under skill-based behaviour where slips and lapses occur. The action required no conscious rule selection or problem solving, so it is a skill-based error rather than a rule-based or cognitive one.
