  • Abstract:
    Ths memorandum was prepared in support of the low visibility simulation study being

    conducted by the FAA as a basis for establishing the lowest RVR (runway visual range)

    required for safe, fail passive auto landings in Category III weather. A design consisting

    of descriptions of the flight scenarios to be used in this study and the order and

    combination of conditions under which these scenarios would be presented to the pilots

    flying the simulated approaches was developed for use in initial simulation testing.

    While adequate for early testing, this ORIGINAL design would have some analytic

    limitations if used as a means of generating pilot performance data during the actual

    evaluation.

    This report describes a new proposed study design and compares the original design and

    the proposed new design with respect to their abilities to differentiate the influence of

    visibility conditions on landing decisions and performance of air transport pilots in a 727

    full mission simulator.
