Abstract
|
|
|
Human factors education and training has become a major concern in aviation,
especially since the International Civil Aviation Organization(ICAO) adopted resolution
A26-9 on Flight safety and Human Factors at its 1989 Assembly. As a follow-up to the
Resolution Air Navigation Commission formulated the following objective for the task.
"To improve the safety in aviation by making States more aware and responsive to
the importance of human factors in civil aviation operations through the provision of
practical human factors material and measures developed on the basis of experience in
States."(ICAO, 1989)
ICAO has described human factors as a concept of people in their living and working
situations; about their relationship with machines, with procedures and with the
environment about them; and also about their relationship with other people. In aviation,
Human Factors involves a set of personal, medical and biological considerations for
optimal aircraft and air traffic control operations(ICAO, 1989). McCormick and
Sanders(1983) have attempted to define human factors more generically by means of
suggesting a set of three interrelated dimensions, which they have labelled the
objectives, and approach of human factors.
