Braune, Rolf J. and Graeber, R. Curtis (1992): Human-Centered Designs in Commercial Transport Aircraft. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 36th Annual Meeting 1992. pp. 1118-1122.

“Based on airline pilot surveys, industry committees and workshops, conducted on advanced technology "glass cockpit" airplanes, concerns have been raised about the application and long-term effects of automation technologies. It has been pointed out that purely technology-driven designs had resulted in unintended and unforeseen negative consequences. In order to counter this trend it has been proposed to shift the focus from technology-centered designs to what has become known as human-centered design. There are three primary objectives within a human-centered design philosophy: (1) the design should enhance the user's abilities, (2) the design should help overcome user limitations, and (3) the design should foster user acceptance. This paper discusses the human-centered design objectives within the context of commercial transport airplane developments. Representative examples of a human-centered design are presented.”
