Abstract

To accommodate the future anticipated increase in air traffic, the Air Traffic Control (ATC) systems have to provide increased capacity by using enhanced technology. Future digital air-ground data link will enable the transmissions of automatically generated ATC messages into the cockpit. The feasibility of the visual presentation of such information is studied, using an Airbus A340 full flight training and research simulator. The study addresses in particular the development and integration of a display into the A340 cockpit, which presents tactical ATC messages and its evaluation. To specify the mental workload of the pilots, a secondary task technique, the NASA Task Load Index, a recall test, interviews and eye movement measurements are used.
