recognised and tireless contributor to the world of Aviation Safety more
recently in the Healthcare and Maritime sectors.

Captain Matti Sorsa
Principal Consultant
Since starting his aviation career in the Finnish Air Force, Matti has flown for
Finnair for over 35 years and is a former MD11 Captain. Besides his aviation
career, he is a trained and highly qualified psychologist managing his own
company, “Pilot Select Oy” in Helsinki.
His specialised field is in screening and selection of personnel destined for
senior positions of responsibility in the aviation, maritime and nuclear power
sectors.
This has enabled Matti to acquire extensive experience in the Risk & Safety Management of the
most modern technologies within the Maritime & Nuclear Power Industries in Scandinavia. Within
these sectors, he has transferred to high acclaim the human performance methodologies acquired
from the commercial aviation industry adapting them to the demands of the ship’s bridge and the
control rooms of nuclear power stations.
He has also been called upon on numerous occasions by the Finnish Government to assume the
role of Investigator-in-Charge (IIC) into fatal air and maritime accidents.
