Abstract

The present study took a novel approach to the assessment of a commercial airline pilot Situation Awareness (SA) training programme developed under the European Commission Framework V ESSAI project. Two measures of SA were developed specifically for the present study; the Situation Awareness Knowledge Test (SAKT) and the Situation Awareness and Workload In-flight Measure (SAWIM). Thirty-two aircrew participants took part in this study; half received standard Line-Oriented Flight Training (LOFT) and half received the bespoke ESSAI SA training. The results of the study provide evidence for the validity of these tools to detect improvements to aircrew SA afforded by the novel training programme.
