Besco, Robert O., Maurino, Dan, Potter, Martin H., Strauch, Barry, Stone, Richard B. and Wiener, Earl (1994): Unrecognized Training Needs for Airline Pilots. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 38th Annual Meeting 1994. pp. 41-45.

The following issues are covered. All of these are currently judged, by at least one of the authors, to be under emphasized or even unrecognized in current airline training practices or Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) training requirements. 1.) Introducing computer naive pilots to automated aircraft and bringing pilots up to a nominal level of computer literacy; 2.) Identifying what existing knowledge, skills, and attitudes need refresher training and the frequency with which to retrain; 3.) Decision making in automated aircraft; 4.) Imbedded flight management system training; 5.) Reality and proficiency maintenance training for inexperienced extra crew members on long haul operations: 6.) Analysis and coding techniques for anomalies encountered at liftoff; 7.) Low altitude, low speed handling qualities and stall recoveries; 8.) Communication skills and standardized terminology sets for inquiry, challenge, and intervention by subordinate crew members; 9.) Use of decision trees for legality decisions in takeoff and landing; 10.) Conflict and ambiguity resolution training to identify organizational and system induced goal conflicts. 11.) Coping with real-time mission changes, software incompatibilities, and anomalies in automated aircraft. 12.) Abort decision making.
