Abstract

The purpose of the current study was two-fold: 1) identify current practices associated with the design and content of checklists used to guide pilot response to emergency and abnormal situations, particularly those known to be challenging for checklist developers and affect checklist usability, including aspects that affect pilots' ability to identify and access the correct checklist and to complete only those items that are pertinent for a specific situation; and 2) identify and analyze checklists for use in aspects of NextGen operations that have already been implemented (e.g., Data Comm, in oceanic operations, and required navigation performance (RNP)).
