Also known as "plan continuation bias":

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunk_cost#Plan_continuation_bias

"a subtle cognitive bias that tends to force the continuation of a plan or course of action even in the face of changing conditions. In the field of aerospace it has been recognised as a significant causal factor in accidents, with a 2004 NASA study finding that in 9 out of the 19 accidents studied, aircrew exhibited this behavioural bias."
