Human Factors Evaluation Principals for Civil Aircraft Flight Deck Controls Design and Integration

Abstract

The Flight Deck Controls are the components of a flight deck interface that allow pilots to provide information to an aircraft system. Example control functions are to operate, configure, and manage systems. This document addresses controls on civil aircraft flight decks from primarily a human factors perspective. This paper introduced a practical evaluation principles, which including general evaluation principles, arrangement and accessibility evaluation principles and operational and usability evaluation principles, for Civil Aircraft Flight Deck Controls Design and Integration.
