O'Neal, Melvin R. and Miller, Robert E. (1987): Further Investigation of Contrast Sensitivity and Visual Acuity in Pilot Detection of Aircraft. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 31st Annual Meeting 1987. pp. 1189-1193.

“Contrast sensitivity (CS) has been reported (Ginsburg et al., 1983) to be strongly related to pilots' aircraft detection performance; however, examination of their results shows a lack of consistency for the CS at any particular spatial frequency to correlate with detection, even for days with similar visibility conditions. To further investigate this relationship, sixty-seven (67) USAF pilots were divided among 8 groups, individually isolated in a bus near the end of a runway on separate days, and detected a T-38 jet aircraft during about 8 landings. CS was measured using the criterion-free two-alternative, temporal forced-choice (2 AFC) technique on the Optronix and with the Vistech VCTS 6500 chart. Visual acuity was assessed at three contrast”
