Download or read book Pilot Selection Methods written by Thomas R. Carretta and published by . This book was released on 2000-09-01 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report consists of eight parts. The first part is concerned with describing pilot selection, why it is important, and the knowledge, skills, abilities, and other characteristics typically considered during selection. Part two introduces the concept of validity and the steps involved in doing a validation study. Part three reviews some common methodological issues that make the interpretation of pilot selection studies more difficult and offers "best practices" advice for researchers and practitioners. Part four describes several common criterion measures of pilot training and job performance and research regarding the development of models of performance. Parts five and six review military and commercial pilot selection practices. Where available, information about the construct and predictive validity of the selection methods is provided. Part seven examines future trends in the measurement of pilot aptitude. Finally, part eight provides recommendations for pilot selection researchers and practitioners. Most important in conducting pilot selection research is scientific rigor. Without scientific rigor, results may be worse than meaningless leading to counterproductive practice. Before setting out to develop a pilot selection system, it is imperative to have a firm foundation in the published literature of human abilities, reliability, validity, job performance measurement, and meta-analysis. Cumulative research results should guide practice. The military has a long history of research in the selection of pilots and other aviation occupations. In general, they have used both paper- and-pencil tests and apparatus tests such as psychomotor. Cumulative results suggest that general cognitive ability (g) has been a mainstay of military testing and will likely remain so. Measures of pilot job knowledge and psychomotor ability have demonstrated incremental validity when used with measures of g.
Download or read book The Last of NASA s Original Pilot Astronauts written by David J. Shayler and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-06-19 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resulting from the authors’ deep research into these two pre-Shuttle astronaut groups, many intriguing and untold stories behind the selection process are revealed in the book. The often extraordinary backgrounds and personal ambitions of these skilled pilots, chosen to continue NASA’s exploration and knowledge of the space frontier, are also examined. In April 1966 NASA selected 19 pilot astronauts whose training was specifically targeted to the Apollo lunar landing missions and the Earth-orbiting Skylab space station. Three years later, following the sudden cancellation of the USAF’s highly classified Manned Orbiting Laboratory (MOL) project, seven military astronauts were also co-opted into NASA’s space program. This book represents the final chapter by the authors in the story of American astronaut selections prior to the era of the Space Shuttle. Through personal interviews and original NASA documentation, readers will also gain a true insight into a remarkable age of space travel as it unfolded in the late 1960s, and the men who flew those historic missions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS VOLUME 1 OF 2. YOU MUST PURCHASE BOTH BOOKS TO HAVE A COMPLETE SET. Developed as both an air superiority fighter and a long-range naval interceptor, Grumman's F-14 Tomcat was the U.S. Navy's primary fighter from 1974 until 2006. Over 700 were built. The F-14 flew its first combat missions shortly after its initial deployment in late 1974, flying in support of the American withdrawal from Saigon. In 1981 it drew first blood, as two F-14s from VF-41 downed two Libyan Su-22s. The plane compiled a notable combat record for the United States in both Gulf Wars and NATO actions in Bosnia. Planes sold to the Shah of Iran prior to his ouster remain the last F-14s in active service, as the U.S. Navy retired it in October 2006. This F-14 pilot's flight operating handbook was originally produced by the U.S. Navy. It has been slightly reformatted but is reproduced here in its entirety. It provides a fascinating view inside the cockpit of one of history's great planes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The selection process for pilots in an international airline is based on a series of evaluative stages that test the candidate or applicant for the position. The interviewed pilot who applies for an operational position in an airline must meet a series of technical and personal requirements that will determine the professional profile that each company is seeking. It is important to understand that in the event that the applicant is rejected by the airline, it does not necessarily mean that they lack the suitability or necessary skills for the position, but rather that the overall profile of the applicant may not align with the professional profile that the company is looking for. In this work, you will learn all the details of each stage of the selection process, along with the necessary tools to succeed in your job interviews. It is a work dedicated to analyzing the different professional profiles that airlines are seeking, examining each point to consider at each stage of the selection process. This work will provide you with all the tools to elevate your upcoming job interviews to the highest professional level, and to assist you in achieving this, it will share the success stories of pilots who have traveled a similar path. Real stories of professional success.
