Integrated Human Centered Systems Analysis for Aircraft Separation from Icing Conditions
This document contains five papers on coping with ice formation during the operation of aircraft. The first paper uses a pilot survey to identify the desired attributes of future information systems for aircraft icing. The second paper investigates the influence of potential remote ice-detection system features on pilot decision making. The third paper investigates the effectiveness of aviation weather forecasting along aircraft trajectories. The fourth paper applied a human-centered systems analysis to the adverse aircraft weather encounter problem in order to identify desirable functions of weather and icing information. The objective of the fifth paper, a viewgraph presentation, is to propose means to improve aviation weather information, training, and procedures based on a human-centered systems approach.
