Human Performance in Aviation Systems.

Abstract

Activities and accomplishments are summarized for six research tasks involving various aspects of human performance in the operation of aviation systems. The program has produced information relevant both to the selection and training of pilots and the design of systems and operational procedures. Topics included are: (1) Attention, timesharing, and pilot performance; (2) transfer of computer assisted learning to flight; (3) Computer assisted decision training for air combat tactics; (4) Acquisition and transfer of aircraft landing skills through manipulation of the augmented cue structure; (5) Synergistic displays for complex naviagation and control tasks; and (6) Perceived size and distance as correlates of visual accommodation.
