Pilots Required for Research on  Runway Safety Technologies 

The MITRE Corporation Center for  Advanced Aviation System Development  
(CAASD) 
McLean, Virginia 

As part of a FAA Runway Safety initiative, the Center for  Advanced Aviation 
System Development at the MITRE Corporation is conducting a  series of cockpit 
simulations evaluating proposed automated runway safety  technologies.  The 
simulations are  intended to determine safety benefits of an integrated safety 
technology.  Adoption of the proposed automation may  decrease the number of 
runway incursions. 
The simulation will be conducted from April 25th through  May 31st and will 
require 36 pilots.  Pilots should have 100 flight hours within  the past year 
and either a transport or a GA rating.  The simulation environment consists of 
a  mid-fidelity, generic cockpit with a visual scene.  The simulation will 
consist of a series  of airport surface scenarios in which the pilot will 
operate 
the aircraft as  close as possible to real life and evaluate the safety 
technology.  Two pilots will be scheduled per day  (8:00AM -12:00PM & 12:00PM 
â 
4:00PM) during the evaluation period. MITRE  will provide $125 compensation for 
 
your participation.  
For more information, or if you would like to participate  please forward 
your qualifications, including current aircraft type and crew  position 
(Captain 
or First Officer), and any additional type ratings,  to:
