Grading System for T-4G Simulator Students in UPT Studies.
Abstract
The Air Force Human Resources Laboratory, Flying Training Division, engages in the evaluation of new flying training technology. One research technique used is to determine savings in training time which results when new technology is used. This done by comparing the performance of students trained the new way with that of students trained in the usual way. A possible result is that experimental students receive less training in the air than other students. A correction to experimental subjects' flying grades to compensate for possible reduced flying hours, is believed to be necessary. This report describes a mathematical technique developed for this purpose. The desired function is basically an optimum linear combination of new training and aircraft performance, with an additional non-linear term to correct for non-linear items inherent in the overall subjective grading system currently used by ATC.
