Title
Business Case For Civil Aviation Human Factors
Abstract
We examined how human factors research and engineering in addressing flight deck and air traffic control issues improves safety and provides tangible cost savings and cost avoidance for Federal Aviation Administration sponsors and industry. The agency spends a limited percentage of its annual budget on research and prioritizes these investments to ensure the best return. This research cuts across a range of human factors considerations spanning selection of applicants for air traffic controller jobs, flight simulator fidelity, generation of scenarios used in pilot training, a new evaluation tool for flight deck certification, design of flight deck operating documents, and design of an air traffic controller information display aid.
