Handbook of Pilot Selection,
Dr. David R. Hunter & Eugene E. Burke 1995. 228 pp. Available
in English.
Summary: This book is intended to acquaint the reader the
significance of pilot selection in terms of money, safety, and
volume training underway. It presents the history of aircraft
pilot selection and the scientific methodology underlying the
development of effective and valid selection procedures. The
authors synthesize the findings into recommended approaches for
selecting pilots in various settings. They go on to identify
problems which still exist and outline needed research to address
those deficiencies. Both professional psychologists and aviation
managers should benefit from reading this book. Psychologist
should use it as a definitive source for information on the
history and current status of research in pilot selection. In
addition, they could use it as a source of personnel selection
methodologies in general (possibly within the context of a
college-level course on personnel selection and psychometrics.
Aviation managers should obtain from this book a good
understanding of the importance of a well-designed pilot selection
system: to reduce their business costs (for example, through
reduced turnover and increased productivity); to reduce their
exposure to lawsuits because of improperly designed selection
tests, and to improve safety. Contents: Figures and tables;
Acknowledgements; Preface; List of abbreviations; Introduction;
Planning for selection; Deciding what to measure; Deciding how to
measure; Evaluating the selection system; History of pilot
selection research; Putting it all together; Future directions;

Flying in the Face of Competition,
Alan P. Dobson 1994. 264 pp. Available in English.
Summary: Flying in the Face of Competition tells the story
of the reform of airline policy and how it is affecting airline
operations in the international marketplace. This book is
essential reading for those who want to understand the political
and diplomatic environment in which modern airlines operate.
Author Alan Dobson begins the book with an analysis of the
political constraints under which airlines have been traditionally
operated, and the subsequent liberalization from these economic
and political pressures in the USA and in Britain specifically.
The narrative is enlivened by the author's interviews with heads
of major airlines and with government leaders on both sides of the
Atlantic. Dobson examines in detail the political struggle to
bring about reform, including the part played by the European
Community as it became more involved in making airline policy.
Having documented the commitment to various forms of operations
independence in the U.S.A., Britain, and the European Community,
Dobson then shifts his focus to various diplomatic negotiations
that have tried to implement and now place conditions on those
commitments. The book ends with some comments about likely future
developments in the light of existing problems and the findings of
recent committees of inquiry in the U.S.A. and the European
Community. Contents: Deregulation and self-interest; The
Bermuda 1 system; Early moves in the USA towards regulatory
reform; Two steps forward one step back; Gathering pace;
Re-regulating air services: Bermuda 2; President Carter and the
airline deregulation revolution; Liberalisation in Britain and the
European Community (1980-93); The challenges of liberalisation and
globalisation; Competition in crisis?; Sources, Bibliography;
Index. Alan P. Dobson is Senior Lecturer in politics at University
College of Swansea, Wales, where he teaches courses on American
and international polities and economics. He is author of several
books including Peaceful Air Warfare: The United States, Britain
and the Politics of International Aviation (Clarendon, 1991),
Anglo-American Relations in the Twentieth Century (Routledge
1995), and numerous journal articles.

Head-Up Displays Designing the Way Ahead,
Richard L. Newman 1995. 371 pp. Available in English.
Summary: This is a thorough description of this
increasingly important technology, starting from the development
of head-up displays (HUDs), particularly specifications and
standards and operational problems associated with HUD use. HUD
involvement in spatial disorientation and its use in recognizing
and recovering from unusual attitudes is discussed. The book
summarizes the design criteria including hardware, software,
interface, and display criteria. It goes on to outline flight
tasks to be used for evaluating HUDs and discusses the impact of
HUDs on flight training. Recent work indicates that a HUD may
allow a significant reduction in the time required to train a
pilot on particular aircraft, even considering non-HUD-related
tasks. The author concludes with a review of unresolved HUD issues
and recommendations for further research, and provides an
impressive bibliography, glossary, and index. Within the military
aviation sector the book will be of use to industry, research
agencies, test pilot schools and air force training
establishments. In the civil area regulatory authorities, airlines
and industrial will also have an increasing interest. Contents:
Introduction; Historical review; A review of HUD technology;
Symbology lessons learned; Primary flight reference criteria;
Equipment considerations; Display criteria; Recommended standard
symbology; HUD evaluations; HUD training; Conclusion; Glossary;
Appendix -- HUD Symbologies; Bibliography; Index. Dr. Richard L.
Newman is the flight deck FAA Certification Coordinator for the
Lockheed C-130J, Hercules II airplane. He has over twenty years
experience in the development, flight testing, and certification
of aircraft systems. Combining degrees in aeronautical engineering
and experience as a test pilot, Dr. Newman has specialized in
research and development of head-up displays for both military and
civilian aircraft.

Future Air Navigation System (FANS), The,
Vincent P. Galotti, Jr. 1997. 364 pp., Cloth. Available in
English.
Summary: "Vincent Galotti's book about the future of
air navigation could not be more timely. A single "wiring
diagram" shows how all the pieces fit for the future air
navigation system. This one clarifying illustration. . . may be
worth the price of the book. . . . Galotti addresses the critical
issues of transition and implementation. . . . Galotti's effort is
most useful as a source book on CNS/ATM policies, architecture and
acronyms. It is a welcome handbook for all those concerned about
the future of air navigation." -- Air Safety Week, 1997.
". . . suitable as a text-book for aviation-students
(including Air Traffic Controllers). . . .Future Air Navigation
System (FANS) is well-written and well-structured. . .It provides
an enlightening overview of the ICAO CNS/ATM-system as well as of
ICAO's institutional mechanisms that make the global
implementation of FANS possible. Any Air Traffic Controller who is
interested in the future of his/her profession should read this
book. . ." -- The Controller, 1997. " . . . 'FANS' is
recommended for ATC personnel, administrators, and pilots as a
preview of things to come. . . Economics, safety, efficiency, and
the obsolescent current ATC equipment is necessitating a
fundamental rethink in air traffic control and FANS. . . might be
an answer to these concerns." -- Airways, 1997. ". . .
provides the reader with both a historical perceptive and an
easy-to-read CNS/ATM system concept. . . . provides an excellent
foundation for all of us to achieve the level of confidence
necessary to become active CNS/ATM players. . . . I suspect it
will be on your shelf for a long time because of its excellent
organization and clear explanations of the subject matter."
-- Air Traffic Control Association, USA. ". . . is very
technical, but surprisingly readable . . . provides a detailed
description of the CNS tools currently used and how they are
likely to change to meet the FANS vision. . . . anyone interested
in the future of commercial and general aviation is advised to
read this book. It contains excellent descriptions." --
Aviation, Space and Environment Medicine. "A book that should
be on the shelves of the libraries in all civil aviation
authorities and aeronautical colleges." -- Aerospace
International. "In this book, Vince Galotti has given us a
comprehensive, easy to understand road-map that helps bridge the
gap in our ability to visualize the impact of moving from the
60-year-old terrain-based ATC system to the CNS/ATM environment of
the 21st century." -- Marvin L. Smith, Ed.D, Director, ATC
Program, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. "I fully
believe that this work will help to bring this crucial
information, which describes the profound changes along with the
expected benefits, to a wide cross section of the civil aviation
community." -- Philippe Rochat, Secretary General, ICAO.
"The main strength of the book lies in its ability to make
itself understood by the non-scientist professional. . . . written
in a fluid, highly readable style, where tinges of the author’s
erudition frequently emerge without making it overtly pretentious.
. . . excellent book. . . . a sound study on FANS." -- Dr.
Ruwantissa I.R. Abeyratne, Air Transport Officer, ICAO (The
Aviation Quarterly). In view of the increase in air traffic, there
has been a great deal of work by the nations of the world, under
the auspices of ICAO, toward developing the concept for a future
air navigation infrastructure to serve world-wide civil aviation
into the next century. The benefits of Communications, Navigation,
Surveillance/Air Traffic Management (CNS/ATM) systems will be
great as new air routes are opened and more dynamic and flexible
flight operations are accommodated the world over. Even though the
concept is well defined and implementation is beginning, so far
only technical manuals are available to describe and advance the
systems concept. This book describes the world's vision for the
Future Air Navigation System (FANS) and is the first text of its
kind dedicated solely to the CNS/ATM systems concept. In addition
to the technical issues associated with CNS/ATM systems concept,
the book also examines institutional, economic, and labor and
human factors issues. Contents: Foreword by Phillipe Rochat,
ICAO; Foreword by Marvin L. Smith, ERAU; Preface; Introduction to
the Future Air Navigation System (FANS); The International Civil
Aviation Organization; Communications; Navigation; Surveillance;

Cockpit Monitoring and Alerting Systems
Paul M. Satchell
"Paul Satchell has provided an extremely
useful and important book for aviation enthusiasts and all those involved in
information technology-related industries that depend in the monitoring of
highly complex systems. This book is an excellent, well-documented read. It
balances theoretical insight with evidence from recent human-related
accidents.
This book is relevant to students and
professionals in aviation and aerospace industries, as well as those engaged
in human factors monitoring of computer-controlled systems, such as road and
rail transportation, air traffic control, nuclear power plants, and other
large highly automated process and manufacturing installations."
Reviewed by K. Victor Ujimoto, Canadian Aeronautics and Space Institute ,
Vol. 39, No. 3, September 1993.
This important volume focuses on one of the
central issues in the high-tech "glass cockpit" -- the problem of
person-machine task optimization. Sustaining attention during long-term
monitoring is a vital concern for both pilots and CRM specialists. In this
book, Dr. Satchell provides an understanding of the human contribution to
the problem of machine-monitoring in cockpits and offers an alternative view
of the mechanisms underlying human factors accidents.
Beginning with a discussion of automation,
peripheralization, and error, Dr. Satchell outlines the origins, objectives,
and effectiveness of CRM. He goes on to discuss stress, arousal, and
vigilance in detail. After an examination of human alerting systems, Dr.
Satchell offers an ideal alerting systems and explores the direction of
monitoring management. The book uses a multi-disciplinary approach to
understanding the vigilance problem in cockpits. Drawing from accident
analysis, aviation psychology, human factors research, neurophysiology,
vigilance research, clinical neurology, and human resource management, Dr.
Satchell provides a thorough and well-balanced investigation of an area of
primary importance in aviation.

Developing the Future Aviation System,
Edited by Rod Baldwin 1999, 224 pages
Summary: "The skies are becoming increasingly crowded
and their is increased commercialization in many areas. There is
also an increased interlocking between technological developments
and the size of the financial investments required. All these
factors increase the need for the development of an integral
aviation system, with all those involved having an awareness of
what is happening in other sectors of the industry." -- Book
News. "This book is a comprehensive list of topics that would
help anyone in the aviation industry to understand the whole
picture of things happening around them . . . will increase your
awareness of what is going on around you in the aviation
environment and how preparations for the next century are being
addressed." -- The Controller. ". . . focuses on issues
destined to occupy future managers in all aspects of civil air
transport . . . it has an academic style, with , many references.
it points out practical problems that will concern today's
students in the industry and tomorrow's managers. Those concerned
with mainstream issues in ATC, and an increasing overlap in the
roles of pilots and controllers, will benefit from the direction
provided by this book." -- Aerospace Professional. The major
changes taking place in technology have some of the greatest
effect in the world of aviation. Yet, in an industry which started
with the concept of "open skies", each sector has
traditionally developed on its own and adjusted to developments in
other areas as and when required. The need for integration is
particularly important as the skies become increasingly crowded.
More intense commercialization dramatically increases the
interlocking between technological developments and the size of
the financial investments required. For maximum efficiency the
aviation system thus has to develop as an integrated whole with a
greater awareness of events in other sectors. Developing the
Future Aviation System meets this requirement by addressing the
breadth and depth of the aviation system and looking at areas of
significant advances. While following the processes of
development, the reader will see where the results might lead in
the new century. Its three parts concentrate on areas of great
significance—in integration as well as in technological
progress--especially for their impact on human and social aspects.
The editor and the invited contributors are among the foremost
experts, researchers and industry leaders in their fields, in the
global aviation community, many with hands-on experience of
massive change. The intended readership includes those who are
moving into management functions in air traffic management,
airplane manufacturing and airline operations; in training centers,
colleges and institutions. Contents: New Concepts for
Aircraft and Airports: A systems approach to developing the new
aircraft; New generation airports; The airport business and
information technology; Airport security; Human Factors and
Training: Human Factors in the cockpit; Laws for the design of the
Universal cockpit displays; Creating a culture of safety; Human
