Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the request of the U.S. Army Aviation Center (USAAVNC), the Army Research Institute Rotary-Wing Aviation Research Unit (ARIRWARU) developed field exportable training and evaluation materials for aircrew coordination. A testbed of the materials was implemented with the cooperation of the 101st Aviation Brigade. Sixteen aircrews participated. Using a UH-60 flight simulator, aircrews were evaluated while executing a comprehensive tactical mission. Evaluation data were collected before and after aircrew coordination training was provided. Evaluation measures included attitude, behavior, task performance, and mission performance. Results showed that (1) the training had positive effects on all of the measures, and (2) the measures are sensitive to changes in performance. The impact on safety of flight was also assessed. The report concludes with recommendations and suggested areas for future research.
