This book was released on 2018-08-20 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results of a simulation experiment involving the evaluation of cockpit display of aircraft traffic information are presented. The experiment was conducted using taped time dependent, noninteractive traffic in an approach to landing situation and two levels of pilot control models: 3-D automatic and computer augmented control. The tests involved two cases: the simulation aircraft flew approach paths which (1) followed another aircraft in between two other aircraft, and (2) merged between two other aircraft. Speed control via manual throttles was used in all tests (path stretching was not allowed for maintaining separation between aircraft). The approaches were conducted while the simulation aircraft was conducting a curved, descending, decelerating approach to landing. Performance data sets were examined, and subjective opinions regarding workload were gathered. Traffic positioning was varied to further evaluate the test subjects' monitoring performance.

Book excerpt: Studies initiated during the early 1970's provided initial exploration of traffic-situation display concepts in a simulation environment. During the present study, the traffic symbology was encoded to provide additional information concerning the traffic, which was displayed on the pilots' electronic horizontal situation indicators (EHSI). The purpose of this study, which was conducted using a research airplane representing an advanced operational environment, was to assess the benefit of coded traffic symbology in a realistic work-load environment. Traffic scenarios, involving both conflict-free and conflict situations, were employed. Subjective pilot commentary was obtained through the use of a questionnaire and extensive pilot debriefings. These results grouped conventiently under two categories: display factors and task performance. A major item under the display factor category was the problem of display clutter. The primary contributors to clutter were the use of large map-scale factors, the use of traffic data blocks, and the presentation of more than a few airplanes. In terms of task performance, the CDTI was found to provide excellent overall situation awareness. Additionally, the pilots expressed a willingness to utilize lesser spacing than the 2 1/2 nautical mile separation prescribed during these tests. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study was undertaken to investigate applications of Cockpit Display of Traffic Information (CDTI) in the operation of current, conventionally equipped transport aircraft. Since flight decks of the current transport-aircraft fleet probably will nto be reconfigured to accommodate a special display dedicated to this purpose, the weather-radar cathode-ray tube (CRT) is the prime contender for the presentation of CDTI. However, unique problems may result from the use of the weather-radar CRT for CDTI, since the CRT size is not optimized for CDTI applications and the CRT is not in the pilot's primary visual scan area. The primary objective of this study was to assess the impact of display size on the ability of pilots to utilize the traffic information to maintain a specified spacing interval behind a lead aircraft during an approach task. The five display sizes considered are representative of the display hardware configurations of airborne weather-radar systems.
