Summary/Abstract: Air crash investigations and identification of their causes have a high level of difficulty, because the source is not, most often, a single cause, but several, interconditioned and intertwined. Generally, the rate of fatal accidents in civil aviation has remained rather constant over the last decade. However, the number of accidents could rise over the decades to come, due to an increase in air traffic and an increase in the technical complexity of aircraft. A high general level of safety should be ensured in civil aviation of the European Union and every effort should be made to reduce the number of accidents and incidents in order to ensure public confidence in air transport. Conducting promptly the safety investigations of aviation accidents and incidents, improves aviation safety and helps to prevent the occurrence of other accidents and incidents. Therefore, in order to establish the truth and the criminal liability of the guilty persons, if they exist, it requires a thorough and complete scene investigation of the site where the event occurred, being an essential activity that takes place immediately, with a team well prepared and complex, which should coordinate documentation of the case, but also should know the specifics of aeronautics in general and how to conduct a forensic investigation of aviation accidents in particular.
