An Experimental Study of the Effect of Shared Information on Pilot/Controller Re-Route Negotiation
(International Center for Air Transportation, 1999-01)
Air–ground data link systems are being developed to enable pilots and air traffic controllers to
share information more fully. The sharing of information is generally expected to enhance their
shared situation awareness ...
System Transition: Dynamics of Change in the US Air Transportation System
(2008-06-04)
The US Air Transportation System is currently facing a number of challenges including an
increasing demand for travel and growing environmental requirements. In order to successfully
meet future needs, the system will ...
Design and Performance of an Adaptable Aircraft Manufacturing Concept
(2016-02-25)
In conventional “vehicle-focused” aircraft design and manufacturing, aircraft are optimized for a given mission and then manufactured using custom-built tooling. This strategy ensures the highest vehicle performance for ...
Queuing Model for Taxi-Out Time Estimation
(2001-09)
Flights incur a large percentage of their delays on the ground during the departure process
between their scheduled departure from the gate and takeoff. Because of the large uncertainties
associated with them, these ...
Key Human-Centered Transition Issues for Future Oceanic Air Traffic Control Systems
(2004-09)
Communication, navigation, surveillance, and decision
support capabilities in Oceanic air traffic control are evolving
significantly. It is important to consider the effect of the
changes on the controller’s task. In ...
Investigating Issues Of Display Content Vs. Clutter During Air-To-Ground Targeting Missions
(Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society (HFES) 48th Annual Meeting, 2004-09-20)
This paper investigates competing influences of display content and clutter on pilot performance during
flight guidance and target acquisition phases of air-to-ground targeting missions. Based on interviews with
F/A-18 ...
Human-Centered Systems Analysis of Aircraft Separation from Adverse Weather
(2004-06)
Adverse weather significantly impacts the safety and efficiency of flight operations. Weather information
plays a key role in mitigating the impact of adverse weather on flight operations by supporting air
transportation ...
The Dynamics of Air Transportation System Transition
(2007-07)
Both U.S. and European Air Transportation Systems
face substantial challenges in transforming to meet future
demand. This paper uses a feedback model to identify
and describe key issues in the dynamics of system ...
Supporting the Future Air Traffic Control Projection Process
(International Center for Air Transportation, 2003)
In air traffic control, projecting what the air traffic situation will be over the next 30 seconds to 30 minutes is a key process in identifying conflicts that may arise so that evasive action can be taken upon discovery ...
Market and Infrastructure Analysis of Future Air Cargo Demand in China
(2003-11-17)
This paper describes an analysis of future air cargo
demand in China and its implications for system
infrastructure. By extrapolating current trends and
evaluating government policies, China is projected to
achieve ...
