Air Traffic Control: Human Performance Factors

Rezensionen / Stimmen

'The blend of academic insight and practical experience contained in this book is essential reading for everyone connected with the operation of aircraft and air traffic control systems...first class contribution to the understanding of human performance and underlying causes of human error in the field of air traffic control. I recommend this book to those at all levels, from ab-initio trainees through seasoned controllers to management and the policy makers who have a genuine interest in flight safety...pilots and all ground support personnel could well gain much from this book.' Journal of Professional Aviation Training '...readers who were previously familiar with only the flight deck environment would gain another perspective by reading this book. Those involved with the investigation of Air Traffic Control incidents could benefit by considering the author's thoughts for applying the Reason model to the ATC world.' Aviation, Space and Environmental Medicine 'The book has been written to appeal to a cross-section of readers, from ab initio controller to senior air traffic services management and will be useful for those people who have a more general interest in air traffic services and human factors.' The Aerospace Professional 'An excellent text...The book contains a great deal of interest, not only to those working in air safety, but also for the general public. It is well written and clear.' Accident Analysis and Prevention '...a very comprehensive and informative book ...I do not hesitate to call this book a milestone...should be mandatory reading for controllers, management and the high-level decision makers.' The Controller 'This book should appeal to a wide audience, from students in human systems design, aircrew and air traffic controllers, to management personnel in ATC and other related services...an important addition to the literature on human error management and aviation systems safety.'
