A Study on the Use Behavior of Aviation Automation on Advanced Aircrafts / 先進型飛機座艙自動化使用行為之探討

碩士 / 國立交通大學 / 工業工程與管理系 / 88 / This study researches the factors that affect the performance of the automated systems in Taiwan's Military aircraft and it's pilots' ability to understand and properly utilize the systems.
The objective of the research is to help better understand why, when and how a pilot chooses to, or not to use the automated system. By better understanding the pilot's reasons, the systems can be tailored to improve its performance and safety.
The following five main variables were considered in the study, which surveyed 156 pilots and interviewed 51 more. The research focussed on System, Human, Situational, Organizational and Cultural factors.
The airmen surveyed pointed to the system's reliability, operational procedures, limited functionality and its interface design, as downfalls of the system. Human variables, revolved primarily around the pilot's experience, or lack there of, and their dependency on the automated system. Training was another key factor that affected their ability to use the system more effectively. The pilots' manual flying ability, their practical versus theoretical training and inadequate system manuals, were all cited as problems. Antiquated and inappropriate flying procedures and task difficulty also factored into the pilot-system performance.
Upon review of the qualitative and quantitative data gathered in the study, the following suggestions are offered, in order to help streamline and improve the Military's current in-flight automated systems.
