Pilots Required for Research on Runway Status Automation
 
The MITRE Corporation Center for Advanced Aviation System Development (CAASD)
McLean, Virginia
 
As part of an FAA Runway Safety initiative, the Center for Advanced Aviation 
System Development at the MITRE Corporation is conducting a series of cockpit 
simulations evaluating proposed automation that would provide pilots 
information related to runway status.  The simulations are intended to 
determine if a 
pilot’s awareness of runway occupancy is enhanced by the proposed automation. 
Adoption of the proposed automation may decrease the number of runway 
incursions.
 
The simulations will be conducted from October 21st through October 31st and 
will require 18 pilots. Pilots should have recent flight experience within the 
past three months.  The simulation environment consists of a mid-fidelity, 
generic cockpit with a visual scene. The evaluation will consist of flying a 
series of short approaches. Two pilots will be scheduled per day (8:00AM -12:00 
PM & 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM) during the evaluation period. MITRE will provide $150 
compensation for your participation. 
 
For more information, or if you would like to participate please forward your 
qualifications and any additional type ratings to:
