Semi-Annual Status Report A Comprehension-Based Analysis of AutoFlight System Interfaces
نویسنده
چکیده
Billings (1996) and other researchers (e.g., Vakil, Hansman, Midkiff, & Vaneck, 1995) have concluded that pilot models of flight automation systems are incomplete and that these models cause operation and training problems (e.g., Mangold & Eldredge, 1995). Sherry and Polson (in preparation) describe a complete model of the avionics. This report summarizes that model and its application to the design of new forms of training and flight mode annunciation.
