Field Study of Threshold Ranges for Aircraft Detection and Color Identification
Abstract
The document is concerned with a program of research into visual aids for preventing mid-air collisions. The principal areas being investigated are paints, exterior light systems, smoke and vapor trails, optical devices, training procedures, and a determination of the items of information which are needed by pilots in making avoidance-maneuver decisions. The approach progresses from laboratory work, through field tests, to flight testing.
