Book Description
Three experiments are reported In which the effects of various visual stimulus patterns formed by different arrangements of instruments and pointers ere studied. For the task employed, which as a continuous, dual-pursuit problem, the results of all three experiments are in agreement in indicating that subjects give significantly superior performance when instruments are close together, instruments are aligned horizontally, and pointers are aligned at 9 o'clock for horizontally separated instruments and at 12 o'clock for vertically-separated instruments, or else the pointers are counterpoised. The results of an extended learning study indicated that differences in the initial performance of individuals when using the different pointer-position patterns actually increased during fifteen daily practice sessions.

Routine Maneuvers Under Day and Night Conditions, Using an Experimental Panel Arrangement

ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 64
Book Description
This report is the ninth in a series of investigations of eye movements of pilots during instrument flight. The frequency, duration and sequence of eye fixations made by 15 pilots when flying day straight and level, level turns, straight dives and 180 degree time turns, and during night straight and level and level turns with a new panel arrangement are summarized. Comparisons are made between the maneuvers flown under day and night conditions. Also, for comparison of standard and experimental panel arrangements, data previously obtained using the standard Air Force panel during routine maneuvers under day conditions are included. Under all conditions the directional gyro, gyro horizon, vertical speed, airspeed and altimeter are the most used instruments.
