Human Factors Research in Aircrew Performance and Training

Abstract

This report presents summaries of the research projects performed by Anacapa Sciences, Inc., for the ARI Aviation R&D Activity (ARIARDA) at Fort Rucker, Alabama. From 9 October 1987 to 8 October 1988, Anacapa personnel worked on 25 research projects and took part in 6 technical advisory services that address emerging aviation weapon systems design, manpower and personnel programs, and aviator training research. The summary for each project and technical advisory service contains (a) a background section that describes the rational for the project and specifies the research objectives, (b) a research approach section that describes the tasks and activities required to meet the project objectives (c) a results section that describes the research findings or, in the case of developmental activities, the research product, and (d) a project status section that describes the work completed and projections for future research, if any. Keywords: Aviator selection testing; Helicopter gunnery; Computer-based instruction; Aviator training; Sensors and symbology; Helicopter flight simulation. (SDW)
