En savoir plus sur le livre

Professional pilot training typically employs piston-engine aircraft with traditional cockpit technology. But once pilots enter the field, they're usually faced with high-tech cockpits and have to scramble to understand the displays, controls, and computers in front of them. This textbook uses diagrams and explanations to provide the concepts pilots need to begin an airline jet training program. Focusing on the automation found in a Boeing 737, Casner (NASA Ames Research Center) covers planning and following a flight route, making modifications en route, flying off the planned route, rejoining the planned route, human factors of cockpit automation (such as staying alert), and automation in two other the Boeing 747-400 and the Canadair Regional Jet.
