Scholars and researchers spend a lot of time doing studies on a particular topic. This gives them an experience on the topic of research that they are dealing with. In my annotated bibliography I have provided several sources that provide a lot of reliable information about aviation safety. All the sources were written by professional authors who provide intensive research techniques about air safety and the benefits of a safe aviation sector (Salkind, 2012). Aviation safety topic is what I am currently dealing with and which I am basing my research on. This topic is has been discussed over and over and it seems that no enough research has been done to answer questions related to the required standards of safety in the sector.

The problem to be addressed in this study is the improvement of aviation safety in the country. The aviation sector is one of the biggest industries in the country and even in the world all over. Safety in the sector is, therefore, a very big issue that needs to be reviewed and stressed. In my research, I will base my research on the improvement of the services in the aviation industry to improve safety and reliability in the sector.

I have developed three questions which if answered will accomplish the goals of my research problem. One of the questions is, what is the impact of an insecure aviation sector to the people and economy of the county. This is because if the sector is not secure, people might get hurt and the economy of the country will be affected as people and customers might develop a negative attitude towards an insecure aviation sector. The second question which will aid in my research if answered is, what are the key factors which promote and allow risks to occur in the aviation sector. Having many risks occurring will promote insecurity in the sector. The third question is about the change of eh policies in the aviation sector. A change of policy might assist to improve aviation safety in the country.

In my proposed study, I will look at the importance of privatizing the aviation sector as being a good strategy of improving services than having it being run by the government (Wiggins & Stevens, 2016). Privatizing the sector will ensure that safety measures have been considered in the sector. A board of directors would run the sector more effectively than the government running. A lot of researches and strategies will be put in place to promote the safety of the sector and ensure the usage of quality equipment to ensure the safety of the employees and the clients of the sector.

You may choose to create a sequential-explanatory design (quantitative followed by qualitative), asequential-exploratorydesign (qualitative followed by quantitative), or aconcurrent design (collecting both data sets simultaneously for triangulation). Discuss the benefits and drawbacks of using mixed methods in your response.
