Aviation research, sourced & cited.

Curated index of aviation-relevant research from NASA NTRS, NTSB safety studies, FAA CAMI, and academic sources. Every record links back to its original — we don't host PDFs, we describe each paper and credit the authors. Built for cross-link with the rest of Atlas: search by topic, drill into a CFR section or airframe and see the research that bears on it.

Modeling Oculomotor Variability During Slow Cabin Decompression Using Infrared Technology

Slow cabin decompression is highly perilous due to its gradual and thus generally inconspicuous nature. In an applied approach to studying its effects upon oculomotor performance, experienced pilots performed a simulated…
