Anthropometry and Kinematics in Crew Station Design,

Abstract

Attention to the anthropometric and kinematic characteristics of the aircrew member is essential to good cockpit design. The design problems are many in which anthropometric and kinematic variability must be accommodated. Many are crucial to the safety of the pilot and to the success of the mission. The condition of current anthropometric and kinematic data is reviewed.
