Research Assessment on Pilot Training Methods and Human Performance

A report by Alfred F. Smode presents a critical review and interpretation of research data with implications for pilot training. It systematically organizes findings from human performance and training research literature to identify researchable issues. The report covers studies on training measurement, simulation, transfer, operational job components, proficiency maintenance, and innovations in training systems.
