Late Afternoon Concurrent Sessions: Training and Education: Presentation: Factors Affecting the Effectiveness of Simulation on Flight Training
No full textFactors affecting the effectiveness of simulation on flight training.
Jennah C. Perry and Jonathan M. Gallimore
Flight simulation is commonly used to enhance flight training. Some of the key factors that contributed towards the use of flight simulation tools such as True Course Simulation (TCS) were examined. Three collegiate ground school courses tasked their students with using TCS. During the Spring 2015 semester, TCS was paid for by the university and participation was not mandatory rather incentivized through extra credit. During the Summer 2015 semester, the students purchased TCS and completion was required before the end of the semester. During the Fall 2015 semester, students were required to purchase, participate, and complete weekly assignments in TCS. Across all semesters we learned that incentives, financial investment, and TCS participation contributing to student’s grades, increased the use of flight simulation. We learned that students bypassed portions of TCS to quickly complete the simulations, instead of focusing on the quality of learning. Strategies are needed to encourage students to distribute their use of flight simulation evenly across a semester instead of mass practice before a due date. Approaches will be discussed for effectively encouraging distributed practice, investment in simulation, and methods for enhancing the quality of learning through simulation
Aviation Stress Management: A Holistic Approach to Aviation Education and Training
No full textWe understand aviation professionals require excellent training to optimally perform and execute highly specialized skillsets, intellectually, physically, and psychologically. Within the aviation industry, individuals are trained to operate, maintain, and manage, multi-million-dollar assets, yet are lacking the basic knowledge and fundamentals of their own body, including the stress response. According to a 2019 stress ranking survey, pilots rank 3rd for highest stress professions while transportation industry workers ranked 8th. Historically, aviation professionals have been left to address symptoms of stress to their own accord, impacting personal health and organizational safety. However, with the collaborative influence of health education, transportation safety, and medical research, the experiences related to stress and effective stress management can be positively supported and integrated into the educational process. By empowering students to effectively learn from, understand, and make effective choices around managing their response to stressors, they will be able to make choices in support of personal health and well-being directly influencing and enhancing skillsets, productivity, and job performance. In efforts to reduce educational stress and to better equip our future leaders in aviation, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University has embedded an aviation stress management course into the Air Traffic Management Curriculum, with anticipation to eventually integrate stress management education across campus programs. We believe a holistic approach to aviation education, including stress management education will have a positive impact on our next generation aviation industry professionals
Incorporating Digital Learning Tools in Conjunction with Air Traffic Control Simulation
No full textLearning and applying complex information at a fast rate can be challenging for students within an air traffic control - training program. Incorporating digital learning tools into an air traffic control training programs may increase student learning and success rates. Swivl is a digital learning capture tool designed to enhance student learning by allowing students to refer back to their individual classroom lab training session videos via an online portal. Embry Riddle’s air traffic program has started using Swivl in two separate ATC courses in order to determine if it is a viable solution to increase learning.
During our research, we have come to the conclusion that Swivl is most useful in the air traffic control tower simulator, and has shown to be an effective learning tool thus far from the teacher’s perspective. Additional student feedback and analysis is forthcoming . Swivl has the potential to be an effective tool in ATC training and may enhance learning by allowing students to sharpen skills that are necessary to advance in the field of air traffic control. The air traffic control - training academy (used to train air traffic controllers hired by the federal government) has a high failure rate. Incorporating digital learning tools in that setting may increase success rates as well

No full textThis study aims to describe the conflicts that occur in Pombewe Village, Sigi Biromaru Subdistrict, Sigi Regency, Application of Democratic, Authoritarian and Permissive Education Models to children in Pombewe Village, Sigi Biromaru Subdistrict, Sigi District, and also the role of families in places of social conflict in the Village Pombewe, Sigi Biromaru District, Sigi Regency. The people involved in this study were children who were involved in the conflict, and village heads, community leaders and parents. To obtain more complete information from the research sample in this study using a purposive technique that is by deliberately approving informants according to certain criteria or considerations. Data collection techniques used by the author are: observation, interview and questionnaire. Questionnaire data were analyzed using frequency or percentage tables. While the interview data and analysis of data analysis used descriptive qualitative analyzed through 3 drunks, namely: Data Reduction, Data Presentation and Data Verification. The results of the study showed conflict in Pombewe Village, Sigi Biromaru Subdistrict, Sigi District, between Karampe and Boyavou sub-villages were classified as discussing direct violence. (direct violence), while the Application of the Democratic, Authoritarian and Child Education Models in Pombewe Village, Sigi Biromaru Subdistrict, Sigi Regency is relatively weak while the Application of Permissive Education Model is classified as very strong. Related to the Role of the Family in dealing with conflicts that are given advice, commemorated and given coverage, the approval that he did was outrageous, as proposed to the police, besides that parents also succeeded in association.The conclusion is in the debate that occurs in the community in need of cooperation between the parents and village officials. Parents are expected to implement a family education system with a coordination model, so that children can open, get attention and affection so that children avoid things that have a negative impact.
General Aviation Hypoxia and Reporting Statistics
No full textHypoxia is defined as a lack of oxygen throughout the body, which can be caused by several factors at any altitude. General aviation (GA) pilots may argue that most GA aircraft cannot attain the required altitudes where one might be more affected by hypoxia, but it is exactly that attitude that may makes pilots more susceptible to hypoxia. The impact of this hazardous attitude is even more apparent if one considers that out of the 590,038 certificated pilots in the USA, a little over 30% of them are GA pilots (FAA, 2015). The problem is that unlike airline pilots or military pilots, there are no specific requirements for GA pilots to receive flight physiology training that could cover hypoxia causes, recognition, and recovery. Furthermore, there is no existing mandate requiring GA pilots to report episodes of hypoxia to any safety or statistics agency, such as NASA. Without reports, records, or statistics on hypoxia, there is no way to observe trends through the years, which could help prevent other GA pilots from experiencing the same hazard. To obtain more information on GA pilots’ experiences with hypoxia, the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association and Curt Lewis & Associates, a safety forum and recommendation service for the aviation industry, distributed an anonymous survey via electronic newsletter to collect hypoxia data. Questions within this survey asked about the pilot’s experience at the time, flight condition, and any previous flight physiology training he or she may have had. The information obtained was analyzed to create statistics that could show how often hypoxia occurs for GA pilots and how effective flight physiology training is for the GA population
Integrating Unmanned Aircraft Operations into the National Airspace System
No full textCommercial unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) are expected to dominate the National Airspace System (NAS) in the years to come. One particular barrier preventing integration of UAS into the NAS is the lack of standardized procedures for separating aircraft and communicating with ATC. In preparation for adopting unmanned flight operations into a complex control system, it is important to identify solutions to effectively control UAS in the NAS.
The Joint UAS and ATC Team (JUAT) group has designed several simulated ATC scenarios in order to determine effective solutions for integration. Through the use of digitized radar display overlays that replicate the military grid reference system (MGRS) in conjunction with traditional airspace sectors/boundaries the JUAT is able to simulate UAS operations on a basic level
Adopting Unmanned Flight Operations into Controlled Airspace
No full textUnmanned aircraft activity is becoming more common within the National Airspace System (NAS) and is expected to dominate the NAS in the near future. Specific procedures for adopting unmanned aircraft into the National Airspace System (NAS).
A variation of the Military Grid Reference System was developed and digitally overlaid onto the radar display. To incorporate this grid system, a customized flight plan database was created for the storage of operator submitted flight plans. Instead of verbal communication, a computer chat system is used for communication because of the low altitude operations in the field.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has made UAS integration a top priority as they projected that the UAS market will reach 7 million systems by 2020. The JUAT is in the process of developing a conclusive solution that will help to safely adopt UAS
