Popis: Previous research suggests that a lack of weather knowledge and poor usability of weather displays may be contributing to aviation weather-related accidents. The purpose of this study was to analyze the perceived usability and performance of pilots while using different parts of the Aviation Weather Center (AWC) website. On average, pilots rated Radar the highest, followed by Terminal Aerodrome Forecasts (TAFs), and then Satellite on the System Usability Scale. Performance measures and the post-study interview revealed further insight into what aspects of the AWC are giving pilots difficulties.
