Introducing a New Spacing Instruction. Impact of Spacing Tolerance on Flight Crew Activity
نویسندگان
چکیده
To assess, from flight crew perspectives, the benefits and limits of a new spacing instruction, a pilot-in-the-loop experiment was conducted. Beyond assessing interface usability and overall feasibility, the experiment aimed at analysing the impact of various tolerance margins on flight crew activity. Flight crew feedback was generally positive. Despite a new task in the cockpit, which requires appropriate assistance to contain workload, pilots highlighted the positive aspects of getting in the loop, understanding their situation, and gaining anticipation. Results showed that the average spacing deviation was usually below 0.5NM.
