Book Description
As the concept of Free Flight continues to be explored, it becomes increasingly evident that pilots must have displays that effectively depict traffic and weather information as more and more responsibility for separation from such hazards transfers from air traffic controllers to pilots. This research effort seeks to address two display design Issues: dimensionality (3D perspective versus 2D coplanar displays) and database integration (separation or integration through overlays of traffic and weather information within displays) . it was hypothesized that the 2D displays would result in fewer traffic and weather conflicts then the 3D displays, replicating the findings of Merwin and Wickens (1996) regarding traffic avoidance. As suggested by the Proximity Compatibility Principle (Wickens & Carswell, 1995), the data base integrated displays were expected to result in fewer conflicts than the separated displays for trials in which both weather and traffic were critical for maneuver choice. Finally, as revealed in Merwin and Wickens (1996), it was hypothesized that display type and scenario geometry would effect maneuver strategies. 17 general aviation flight instructors flew a series of trials with four display types in which dimensionality, database integration, and hazard geometries were manipulated. Analyses of the data revealed that the 2D displays result in a smaller percentage of conflicts with traffic and weather hazards. The results regarding database integration suggest that displays in which traffic and weather are overlaid result in fewer hazard conflicts for trials in which both hazard types are critical to maneuver selection. Display type and scenario geometry were also found to effect maneuver strategies, including a pronounced 2D advantage for trials in which the traffic is descending or ascending, while performance for level i>IL&H92H(-H1I1>

Advances in Human Aspects of Aviation
Author: Steven J. Landry
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1439871167
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 661
Book Description
Since the very earliest years of aviation, it was clear that human factors were critical to the success and safety of the system. As aviation has matured, the system has become extremely complex. Bringing together the most recent human factors work in the aviation domain, Advances in Human Aspects of Aviation covers the design of aircrafts for the comfort and well being of the passenger. The book discusses strategies and guidelines for maximizing comfort, the design of aircrafts including cockpit design, and the training and work schedules for flight attendants and pilots. It is becoming increasingly important to view problems not as isolated issues that can be extracted from the system environment, but as embedded issues that can only be understood as a part of an overall system. In keeping with a system that is vast in its scope and reach, the chapters in this book cover a wide range of topics, including: Interface and operations issues from the perspectives of pilots and air traffic controllers, respectively. Specific human performance issues, studied from within the context of the air transportation system Issues related to automation and the delineation of function between automation and human within the current and future system The U.S. air traffic modernization effort, called NextGen Diverse modeling perspectives and methods Safety and ethics as driving factors for change Cognition and work overload Empirical research and evaluation of the air transportation domain As air traffic modernization efforts begin to vastly increase the capacity of the system, the issues facing engineers, scientists, and other practitioners of human factors are becoming more challenging and more critical. Reflecting road themes and trends in this field, the book documents the latest research in this area.
