Training for Situation Awareness

چکیده
Need for Situation Awareness Training in Aviation In the aviation domain, maintaining a high level of situation awareness is one of the most critical and challenging features of a pilot’s job. Problems with SA were found to be the leading causal factor in a review of military aviation mishaps (Hartel, Smith, & Prince, 1991). In a study of accidents among major airlines, 88% of those involving human error could be attributed to problems with situation awareness as opposed to problems with decision making or flight skills (Endsley, 1995b). Although similar studies have not been performed for general aviation accidents, SA is reported to be considerable challenge in this population as well, particularly as general aviation pilots are frequently less experienced and less current than operators for major airlines (Hunter, 1995).
