USER EVALUATIONS OF TWO AIRCREW PROTECTIVE HELMETS

Abstract

Two aircrew protective helmets were evaluated by 24 instructor pilots who were divided equally into groups subjected to three ambient noise environments. Pilots rated the Army APH-5 and the SPH-3X (Experimental) on eight categories designed to assess relative comfort, acceptability, and noise attenuation. Ratings were compared, using a Split-Plot Factorial Analysis of Variance.
