Book excerpt: This report examines the activities of a major commercial air carrier between 1993 and late 1996 as it acquired an advanced fleet of high-technology aircraft (Boeing 757). Previously, the airline's fleet consisted of traditional (non-glass) aircraft, and this report examines the transition from a traditional fleet to a glass one. A total of 150 pilots who were entering the B-757 transition training volunteered for the study, which consisted of three query phases: (1) first day of transition training, (2) 3 to 4 months after transition training, and (3) 12 to 14 months after initial operating experience. Of these initial 150 pilots, 99 completed all three phases of the study, with each phase consisting of probes on attitudes and experiences associated with their training and eventual transition to flying the line. In addition to the three questionnaires, 20 in-depth interviews were conducted. Although the primary focus of this study was on the flight training program, additional factors such as technical support, documentation, and training aids were investigated as well. The findings generally indicate that the pilot volunteers were highly motivated and very enthusiastic about their training program. In addition, the group had low levels of apprehension toward automation and expressed a high degree of satisfaction toward their training. However, there were some concerns expressed regarding the deficiencies in some of the training aids and lack of a free-play flight management system training device.

Download or read book Human Performance on the Flight Deck written by Don Harris and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking an integrated, systems approach to dealing exclusively with the human performance issues encountered on the flight deck of the modern airliner, this book describes the inter-relationships between the various application areas of human factors, recognising that the human contribution to the operation of an airliner does not fall into neat pigeonholes. The relationship between areas such as pilot selection, training, flight deck design and safety management is continually emphasised within the book. It also affirms the upside of human factors in aviation - the positive contribution that it can make to the industry - and avoids placing undue emphasis on when the human component fails. The book is divided into four main parts. Part one describes the underpinning science base, with chapters on human information processing, workload, situation awareness, decision making, error and individual differences. Part two of the book looks at the human in the system, containing chapters on pilot selection, simulation and training, stress, fatigue and alcohol, and environmental stressors. Part three takes a closer look at the machine (the aircraft), beginning with an examination of flight deck display design, followed by chapters on aircraft control, flight deck automation, and HCI on the flight deck. Part four completes the volume with a consideration of safety management issues, both on the flight deck and across the airline; the final chapter in this section looks at human factors for incident and accident investigation. The book is written for professionals within the aviation industry, both on the flight deck and elsewhere, for post-graduate students and for researchers working in the area.

Download or read book High Tech Flying written by Robert W. Littlefield and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glass cockpits, NextGen, iPads, drones -- these and other advances of the Information Age are revolutionizing aviation. High Tech Flying examines how these advances are impacting aviation and gives pilots the tools and knowledge they need to fly safely and efficiently in this new environment. High Tech Flying explains these technologies in plain English and from the pilot`s perspective, and explains how they work together to create a new way of flying in the Information Age. The first chapters examine two technologies which have really "taken off" in the last five years - NextGen and personal devices such as tablet computers and smartphones. Pilots need to understand these technologies and how they are changing the way we fly in the National Airspace System. Next High Tech Flying examines "The Glass Cockpit Revolution" - how it happened, what it means for pilots, and how to use glass cockpit technology to fly safely and efficiently. It includes chapters on "Mastering the Glass Cockpit" and "Flight Planning In the Information Age."It is vital that flight instructors understand these advances, not only because they fly in this environment but because it is their job to communicate this knowledge to the pilot community. That is why High Tech Flying includes a chapter on "Flight Training in the Information Age." Because checklists are a vital part of flying safely and effectively in the Information Age, High Tech Flying dedicates a separate chapter to their creation and use. High Tech Flying concludes with a chapter on "The Future," which tries to predict where the on-going digital revolution will take aviation. To be clear, High Tech Flying is not a tutorial on specific pieces of aviation equipment. For one thing, in the Information Age, details about the features, capabilities and operation of particular pieces of equipment change too rapidly for any book to stay current. Pilots should always look for the details of how to operate their particular make and model of aircraft or avionics box in the latest updated documentation provided by the manufacturer of that equipment. This has always been true and is even more so today, since the operational details of glass cockpit airplanes differ greatly among models and change so rapidly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everything you need for the FAA instrument knowledge exam, your IFR proficiency check ride, updating and refreshing your knowledge. As a comprehensive information sourcebook, these pages include: Simplification of FAA's IFR scan concepts & an easy-to-use, cockpit-practical instrument scan technique Latest information on aviation decision making for instrument pilots Detailed understanding of analog and glass (PFD) flight instruments Detailed procedures for planning an IFR cross-country flight Easy to apply navigation methods for VOR, GPS, ADF and flying approaches to LPV, LNAV, LNAV/VNAV minimums Clear explanations of pertinent FARs, including instrument currency, lost comm, alternate requirements, etc. Step-by-step explanation of how instrument approach charts are constructed, including MDAs, DAs, procedure turns, etc. Practical understanding of the IFR system, GPS procedures, icing and thunderstorm avoidance, NEXRAD, RADAR, etc.ICAO Flight Plan form explanation and procedures for filing IFR flight plans.Graphical Forecasts for Aviation (GFAs) ExplainedThis Handbook is a teaching tour de force that takes pilots through the complex world of instrument flying. Long known for his unique ability to transform difficult concepts into simple-yet-complete explanations, Machado takes both new and experienced IFR pilots on a guided tour of instrument flying, from the basics through subtleties that many professional pilots will find useful. Nearly 1,000 illustrations shine further light on the topic at hand. From how the basic aircraft instruments work through what's inside a thunderstorm and how a GPS approach works, Machado teaches IFR pilots not just the minimum needed to pass the written exam, but every aspect of IFR flying. Covers the latest on GPS, glass cockpits, data uplinks, computer-based resources, and new (and future) technologies and techniques. It's a rich source of practical information about how real pilots really fly IFR. Learn how to gauge the thunderstorm potential of a cumulus cloud by estimating the rainfall rate, scan instruments for maximum performance with minimum effort, and keep the needle centered during approaches. It's fun, thorough, and the next best thing to having Rod sit by a pilot's side and talk him through each topic. Have fun while learning what you need to know in order to fly safely.
