Abstract:This report covers the first nine months of research on general
aviation pilot error under Technical Task Directive #2, DTRS contract
#57-SSL-C-00101. It constitutes Phase I of the contract and embraces four subtasks:
1. Selection of Pilot Error Types for Modeling
2. Pilot Error Modeling
3. Model Support: The design of an instrument to study response of pilots to weather scenarios.
4. Protocol analysis of pilot weather forecasting strategies.
In addition this report will discuss plans for Phase II, "Defining the Limits of General Aviation Pilots' Understanding of Weather,• as identified by the CAWT (Computer Aided Weather Test) and the protocol analysis tests of high and low time pilots. Phase III, which depends upon the Phase II findings, will be concerned with developing methods for improving the pilots' understanding of weather.
