This Phase III report is the last of a series of interim |
|
and data reports dealing with offsets and turn |
|
anticipation techniques using a single Waypoint analog |
|
RNAV system and a noncentered needle CDI instrument. |
|
Eight instrument rated pilots participated in a series of |
|
flight simulation tests employing solo pilot techniques |
|
which were conducted at the National Aviation Facilities |
|
Experimental Center (NAFEC) in order to measure total |
|
system crosstrack (TSCT) and flight technical error (FTE) |
|
as well as operational pilot performance. The tests were |
|
designed to assess pilot performance for: (1) |
|
anticipation of turns while maintaining a desired offset, |
|
and (2) steady state parallel offset tracking |
|
proficiency. Performance was measured on these variables: |
|
horizontal tracking, airspeed control and procedural |
|
performance. The horizontal tracking data included both |
|
steady state (parallel offset) and transition (parallel |
|
offset) data. The major findings of this study were: (1) |
|
No significant differences exist between the offset turn |
|
data and the offset steady state data in terms of TSCT or |
|
FTE magnitude; and (2) the procedures used for shallow |
|
angle turns (29 deg and 48 deg) and the logic for the |
|
interception of the final approach course have a |
|
potential for blunders. (Author) |
