Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the strong safety record of the national airspace system, serious disruptions occasionally occur, often as a result of outdated or failed equipment. Under these circumstances, safety relies on the skills of the controllers and pilots and on reducing the number of aircraft in the air. The current and growing pressures to increase the capacity to handle a greater number of flights has led to a call for faster and more powerful equipment and for equipment that can take over some of the tasks now being performed by humans. Increasing the role of automation in air traffic control may provide a more efficient system, but will human controllers be able to effectively take over when problems occur? This comprehensive volume provides a baseline of knowledge about the capabilities and limitations of humans relative to the variety of functions performed in air traffic control. It focuses on balancing safety with the expeditious flow of air traffic, identifying lessons from past air accidents. The book discusses: The function of the national airspace system and the procedures for hiring, training, and evaluating controllers. Decisionmaking, memory, alertness, vigilance, sleep patterns during shift work, communication, and other factors in controllers' performance. Research on automation and human factors in air traffic control and incorporation of findings into the system. The Federal Aviation Administration's management of the air traffic control system and its dual mandate to promote safety and the development of air commerce. This book also offers recommendations for evaluation the human role in automated air traffic control systems and for managing the introduction of automation into current facilities and operations. It will be of interest to anyone concerned about air safetyâ€"policymakers, regulators, air traffic managers and controllers, airline officials, and passenger advocates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vaughan unveils the complicated and high-pressure world of air traffic controllers as they navigate technology and political and public climates, and shows how they keep the skies so safe. When two airplanes were flown into the World Trade Center towers on September 11, 2001, Americans watched in uncomprehending shock as first responders struggled to react to the situation on the ground. Congruently, another remarkable and heroic feat was taking place in the air: more than six hundred and fifty air traffic control facilities across the country coordinated their efforts to ground four thousand flights in just two hours—an achievement all the more impressive considering the unprecedented nature of the task. In Dead Reckoning, Diane Vaughan explores the complex work of air traffic controllers, work that is built upon a close relationship between human organizational systems and technology and is remarkably safe given the high level of risk. Vaughan observed the distinct skill sets of air traffic controllers and the ways their workplaces changed to adapt to technological developments and public and political pressures. She chronicles the ways these forces affected their jobs, from their relationships with one another and the layouts of their workspace to their understanding of their job and its place in society. The result is a nuanced and engaging look at an essential role that demands great coordination, collaboration, and focus—a role that technology will likely never be able to replace. Even as the book conveys warnings about complex systems and the liabilities of technological and organizational innovation, it shows the kinds of problem-solving solutions that evolved over time and the importance of people.

This book was released on 2018-04-12 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decades of continuous efforts to address known hazards in the national airspace system (NAS) and to respond to issues illuminated by analysis of incidents and accidents have made commercial airlines the safest mode of transportation. The task of maintaining a high level of safety for commercial airlines is complicated by the dynamic nature of the NAS. The number of flights by commercial transports is increasing; air traffic control systems and procedures are being modernized to increase the capacity and efficiency of the NAS; increasingly autonomous systems are being developed for aircraft and ground systems, and small aircraftâ€"most notably unmanned aircraft systemsâ€"are becoming much more prevalent. As the NAS evolves to accommodate these changes, aviation safety programs will also need to evolve to ensure that changes to the NAS do not inadvertently introduce new risks. Real-time system-wide safety assurance (RSSA) is one of six focus areas for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) aeronautics program. NASA envisions that an RSSA system would provide a continuum of information, analysis, and assessment that supports awareness and action to mitigate risks to safety. Maintaining the safety of the NAS as it evolves will require a wide range of safety systems and practices, some of which are already in place and many of which need to be developed. This report identifies challenges to establishing an RSSA system and the high-priority research that should be implemented by NASA and other interested parties in government, industry, and academia to expedite development of such a system.

Download or read book The profession of air traffic controller operating safely and efficiently in a context of high reliability written by Anacna and published by Youcanprint. This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of the research was to analyse the practical and daily dimension of the work of the air traffic control officer (ATCO). The ATCO is an operator able to handle unexpected situations within a complex operating, technological and regulatory system while maintaining a high level of reliability and safety. In particular, the work of the ATCO is characterized by two crucial elements: (1) the accurate management of time variables (air traffic management requires the air traffic controller to take decisions and act in extremely restricted fractions of time) and (2) continuous coordination with various items of technology and with other workers (pilots, other ATCOs and other types of personnel employed at airports). This means that it is an activity that at the same time presupposes both individual skills and capabilities and also collective capabilities, aimed at building a common space of mutual understanding and agreement with regard to the interpretive schemes to be utilised in order to deal with the multiple scenarios that can arise in the field of air traffic management. The aims of the research were descriptive-analytical in nature: Describe the characteristics of the ATCO profession, highlighting the aspects of reliability, safety and management of unexpected events; Describe and analyse the cognitive and organizational complexity of the ATCO's work. The research also involved goals of a practical-improvement kind, encouraging greater awareness in terms of: the operators, with reference to the management of unexpected events, to the cognitive and organizational complexity of air traffic control activity, to the operational specificities associated with maintaining and increasing effectiveness, efficiency, reliability and safety in the management of air traffic; The identification of improvement criteria for the initial selection and training (both at the start and then ongoing) of staff dedicated to air traffic control; The complexity of the work of ATCOs in areas different from those of an academic-professional kind, in order to promote an informed exchange of expertise outside the world of the operators in the sector. The research was promoted by four bodies: the Società Nazionale Assistenza al Volo (ENAV S.p.a.); the Associazione Nazionale Assistenti e Controllori Navigazione Aerea (ANACNA); the Confederazione Italiana Sindacati dei Lavoratori (FIT-CISL) and the Unione Italiana Controllo e Assistenza al Volo (UNICA). The research was carried out by a team from the Dipartimento di Sociologia e Ricerca Sociale dell’Università of Milano-Bicocca, composed of Maurizio Catino (director of the research project), Alessia Bianco Dolino, Diego Coletto and Chiara Locatelli. The work presents some extremely innovative features in the field of studies available today regarding the profession of air traffic controller and constitutes the first research experience in this sector at an Italian level, as well as being one of first at an international level. In particular, these distinctive features involve, on the one hand, the research methodology used and, on the other hand, the theoretical frame of reference chosen for the analysis. As far as research methodology is concerned, the techniques of organizational ethnography have been employed. This involved a long period of observation in the field of work itself (448 hours of observation over the course of a year), making it possible to directly observe the work practices adopted by front-line operators, the main characteristics of the work and the specific operational needs of the profession. Specifically, observations were carried out in four operating locations: the Area Control Centres (ACCs) in Rome and Milan and the Control Towers (TWRs) at Malpensa and Fiumicino airports.

Download or read book Air Traffic Control: Human Performance Factors written by Anne R. Isaac and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Foreword by Captain Daniel Maurino, ICAO: '...Air Traffic Control...will remain a technology-intensive system. People (controllers) must harmoniously interact with technology to contribute to achieve the aviation system’s goals of safe and efficient transportation of passengers and cargo...This book...considers human error and human factors from a contemporary and operational perspective and discusses the parts as well as the whole...I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did.' The motivation for writing this book comes from the author’s long standing belief that the needs of Air Traffic Service personnel are inadequately represented in the aviation literature. There are few references to air traffic control in many of the books written for pilots and about pilots and this is also observed at the main international conferences. In line with the ICAO syllabus for human factors training for air traffic controllers, the book covers the main issues in air traffic control, with regard to human performance: physiology including stress, fatigue and shift work problems; psychology with emphasis on human error and its management, social psychology including issues of communication and working in teams, the environment including ergonomic principles and working with new technologies and hardware and software issues including the development of documentation and procedures and a study of the changes brought about by advanced technologies. Throughout the text there are actual examples taken from the air traffic control environment to illustrate the issues discussed. A full bibliography is included for those who want to read beyond these issues. It has been written for all in air traffic services, from ab initio to the boardroom; it is important that the men and women in senior management positions have some knowledge and awareness of the fundamental problems that limit and enhance human performance.

This book was released on 2020-03-18 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most complex challenges for the future of aviation is to ensure a safe integration of the expected air traffic demand. Air traffic is expected to almost double its current value in 20 years, which cannot be managed without the development and implementation of a safe air traffic management (ATM) system. In ATM, risk assessment is a crucial cornerstone to validate the operation of air traffic flows, airport processes, or navigation accuracy. This book tries to be a focal point and motivate further research by encompassing crosswise and widespread knowledge about this critical and exciting issue by bringing to light the different purposes and methods developed for risk assessment in ATM.
