Abstract

The pilot model used in the design of the Comanche attack helicopter's cockpit ensured that the interface for all systems realistically corresponded to pilot tasks, in view of limited cockpit space, mission time pressures, and simultaneous pilot awareness of numerous complex systems requiring 'cognitive engineering'. The cognitive engineering approach gives attention to the interface through which a pilot receives information and conveys intent, within the framework of crew expectations concerning the task structure that must be accommodated by the hardware and software. The interaction between mission analysis, pilot model, and cockpit arrangement ensures support of the physical plant for crew efforts on task operations.
