Andrew has lifted the lid on what it's like in the BAESystemsAir cockpit ✈️
As a human factors specialist, he studies how people interact with their working environment – in his case that’s an aircraft and the systems that support it, whether in a cockpit or on the ground.that could be integrated into the cockpit to make the role of the pilot even more intuitive and effective, while not overloading them with tasks and information.
Andrew brings invaluable experience to the team as a pilot. He said “During pilot training, you spend a lot of time looking at things that have gone wrong in the past. It’s interesting to see how human behaviour can either save the situation or make things worse. “The demands on military aircraft pilots are extraordinary. As well as flying the plane, they also manage all of the weapon and mission systems while staying fully aware of their environment.”In his current role Andrew and the team are using psychophysiological monitoring to get an objective measurement of the pilot workload. The measures include using include galvanic skin response, heart rate, respiration, eye tracking and EEG for monitoring brain activity.
