Federal Aviation AdministrationNTL-AVIATION-Air Traffic ControlNTL-AVIATION-Aviation Human FactorsUS Transportation CollectionThis document describes the first of three studies relating to human factors aspects in the flight desk display of Automatic Terminal Information Servies (ATIS). This research is being conducted by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Technical Center. The first part-task study examined basic format design variables. Its purpose was to (1) begin addressing flight deck design issues pertinent to the design of the tower ATIS workstation and, (2) collect data relevant to standard and certification groups within the FAA. Future studies in an FAA Technical Center high-fidelity mock-up and various aircrfact simulators will examine full mission issues, such as procedures, equipmetn mechanization, and automation.74
