Evaluation of a formal methodology for developing aircraft vertical flight guidance training material

摘要

Aircraft automation,particularly the automation surrounding vertical navigation,has been cited as an area of training difficulty and a source of confusion during operation.A number of incidents have been attributed to a lack of crew understanding of what the automation is doing.This paper describes the translation of information from a formal methodology used in design of an automated vertical guidance system to a training package,and an experiment that tested the new training.
