An examination of autoflight systems in modem aircraft was made, with empasis on the complex mode structure which is suspect in several recent accidents. Aviation Safety Reporting System reports from 1990-94 were examined. Flight Mode Annunciator conventions were inventoried. Focussed interviews with pilots and check airmen were conducted. Principal results identified the lack of a consistent global model of the AutoFlight System architecture and identified the vertical channel as requiring enhanced feedback. An Electronic Vertical Situation Display to help mitigate the identified problems was prototyped. |
